#283 "Upset, you've never seen me upset' Tom Cruise Character Cult Leaders
This week on The Reel Debaters Podcast, we’re cranking up the charisma and asking the fundamental question: Which Tom Cruise character would make the best cult leader?
From Ethan Hunt’s death-defying loyalty to Frank T.J. Mackey’s hypnotic stage presence, we dig into Cruise’s wildest roles and decide who could lead the most devoted (and slightly unhinged) following.
PLUS, we’ve got reviews on:
Drop: A sleek, high-concept thriller that blends modern digital paranoia with old-school suspense.
🌌 Andor Season 2 – Did the Star Wars rebellion finally get prestige TV right?
🐵 The Monkey – Stephen King's latest adaptation gets a bananas breakdown.
