之前克里斯漢斯沃有跟阿湯哥聊過,問了他的建議:
I asked Tom Cruise years ago what drove him to make certain decisions on films. He said, ‘I just want people to see my movies. I don’t want to put that much blood, sweat and tears into it, and have it come and go.
當時雷神快完結了,克里斯應該在考慮未來出路,也做了一些新戲路的嘗試,不確定感很高吧。
雖然得到的答案很模糊,但我猜阿湯哥是希望拍娛樂性高,好看,不負期待的電影。雖然這些商業電影都有一定的套路和公式,但觀眾買單也滿意就夠了。與其付出心力做太多出格的嘗試或挑戰,但評價難以預料的東西,不如專心做好自己擅長的事情,那就是商業動作片。
