Tom Cruise Calls ‘Sinners’ a “Must-See”; Michael B. Jordan Reacts

Tom Cruise has praised director Ryan Coogler and star Michael B. Jordan for their work on the thrilling horror movie ‘Sinners,’ calling it a must-see.

 In ‘Sinners’, which is set in Mississippi in 1932, Jordan plays twin brothers who build a speakeasy that is overtaken by otherworldly forces on its first night.  The movie had the largest opening for an original production since Jordan Peele’s ‘Us’ in 2019, with $48 million (£36 million) in the US and $77 million (£58 million) globally on its first weekend of release.

The movie has received positive reviews from critics as well; it now has a 98% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.  

 Tom Cruise recently posted an Instagram photo of himself in a movie theatre holding a ‘Sinners’ ticket.   Congratulating Ryan Coogler, Michael B. Jordan, and the whole cast and crew, he encouraged the audience to watch the film in theatres and stay until the end credits.

In return, Jordan thanked Cruise for the support in his message.  Later, he posted a personal message to followers on Instagram, thanking them for the film’s tremendous popularity and love.  He claimed that the response has been amazing and that the essence of filmmaking is the shared experience of viewing films on a large screen.

 Buddy Guy, a blues superstar, recently discussed his appearance in the movie.  He stated that he consented to participate because he believes in anything that keeps the blues alive.  He was happy that he took the opportunity even though he wasn’t sure if he would be good enough.
