Is Tom Cruise office-ridden in Lions for Lambs?

I've just stumbled across a new trailer for the Robert Redford directed Lions for Lambs and first off, it ain't a bad trailer. The movie looks to deal with some real pressing matters but there's two things that bother me so far about the movie. The first being although it's a relevant topic and everything, the movie kinda looks boring. The second being that it doesn't look like Tom Cruise is going to leave that damn office, which I can see what there doing (and they mention it in the trailer) that they want a powerful guy who can easily make decisions about people's lives whilst he is comfy in his office (or is it a frustrated prison, hope they delve into that too) but it's going to be a little annoying for the viewer if we keep coming back there for another bout of heavy dialogue and Oscar hopeful acting. I dunno. I think it will be a relevant picture but maybe one that isn't quite as exciting as The Last King of Scotland or Blood Diamond last year. New trailer below, and the poster is of course above. Poster reminds me of a mid 90's kind of political/thriller.
