Ben Affleck worried about making crappy movies because of Tom Cruise's commercial failure

Ben Affleck has warned that the reception to the commercial failure of "The Other" may lead studios to make repetitive and conservative films instead of encouraging filmmakers to take risks.

Ambassador Arjan: Ben Affleck believes that criticizing and ridiculing films that make big and risky experiments can make studios choose less risky ways in future projects. He said: "It's a bit like high school bullying; People who haven't even seen the movies. To be honest, we're seeing the same thing now with "the other". Everyone wants to celebrate this movie's commercial failure as if it's the most exciting thing in the world; While we are on the side of an ambitious and interesting film made by talented people.

Affleck continued: "Everybody wants to do the math and see how much the movie lost. But in my opinion, if you punish films that take risks, you know what you get? A bunch of nonsense movies. "You can't create an interesting work without taking big risks, and this means that sometimes a bad result may come out of the water."

However, "Other" has also faced negative reviews. David Rooney, senior film critic of The Hollywood Reporter, wrote in his review that this film is the result of two very self-centered characters coming together, with no one to restrain their excesses. He described Tom Cruise's performance as deeply disturbing and Alejandro González Iñárritu's film as a heavy and exaggerated work about an apocalyptic catastrophe that relies on the idea that trying to stop global warming at this stage is nothing more than a political show.

"Diger" had 8 million dollars in its first week of release in North America and 12 million dollars in international markets. The poor performance of the film has fueled widespread discussions in Hollywood and a number of famous figures have supported it.

Among these people was Anne Hathaway, whose film "Verity" sold more than "Other" in its opening week. Hattoy gave the film a perfect score on the Letterboxd platform and wrote: "I loved this brilliant film. It's clever, eerie, daring, funny and ambitious. It's worth taking the time to watch and decide for yourself. in my opinion 10 out of 10."
