701483, I love that they make Cruise's obvious infallibility a plot point.

We know he's not going to die in the finale, so they make it so he literally cannot be killed by the bad guys. Instead, he starts throwing himself in front of his friends in the gunfight to protect them.
I thought that was a clever solution to the action movie hero problem you mentioned.
