Tom Cruise and director Doug Liman have not been officially blamed for any wrongdoing in any legal context, but members of the Purwin and Berl estate have cited them in their legal complaints towards the production because of frequent changes and additional flying sequences added to the shoot.
However, a certain amount of blame has also been leveled at the production itself.
The families of Alan Purwin and Carlos Berl have reportedly come forward and admitted that the two deceased crew members complained about the strenuous (and arguably unsafe) working conditions of the film before the crash.
