I'm not a big fan of the Cruiser, the entire scientology aspect kinda ruined his x-factor but do enjoy some of his movies. He was great in Eyes Wide Shut, Vanilla Sky and he cracked me up most recent in Tropic Thunder. Good work there.


P.S. I loved Cocktail but moreso cause of Bryan Brown, he was fantastic in it.



I liked Eyes wide shut (they did a bad bad thing)

I never see his movies...because when I was a teen he totally creeped me out so I boycotted him. Now it seems everyone finally picked up on the vibe I always got. I have seen risky business and WOTW, though.

WOTW is one of my favorite movies!


Risky Business RULES! WOTW, not so much but that could be the fact that I'm a purist and I LOVED the original WOTW from the '53...

ever seen that one?

Damn man....I have just about every Tom Cruise movie...along with Johnny Depp...My goal isto get everything they make.
He was funny as hell in Tropic Thunder and should tap into the comedy a bit more. Cocktail is a bit cheesy but he was still honing in the skills. I loved him in several others though....MI2, Last Samuri and Valkyrie. I'll be a fan until the end.

Eyes Wide Shut is an amazing movie that explores relationships and infidelity and Tom and Nicole were very convincing in it, but it's not for everybody. Check it out I don't think U would be disappointed.


So what would you call his worst movie, P-Girl?


Ummm I would say War of The Worlds, his performance and the film itself did nothing for me, also Far & Away pretty much sucked he was quite miscast in it.

Yah don't bother watching Far & Away it's very boring and a waste of time. I could have had more fun watching the grass grow... wink

Did you like the Mission Impossible movies??? I hated them. It was not because of Tom Cruise, it's because the movies sucked, same with war of the worlds

I figured there would be some votes for Vanilla Sky, even though I really like the movie a lot of people don't. I feel it needs a repeat viewing to fully understand it.

I can't stand Tom Cruise anymore. His ego trip on Matt Lauer and Brooke Shields made him look like a bit fucking asshole, and he still is one.

I've refused to watch any of his movies since all that.

So what is his worst movie? Anytime he's been in front of any camera since the above mention debacles.
highfive Fuck him.

At least the rest get played on repeat on television.

I thought it was horrible. it's one of my least favorite movies of all time.

I watched the first Mission Impossible film when it was first released, only because it was filmed in Australia and I didn't mind some of the action stunt scenes but the storyline was weak and did nothing for me. I didn't bother with the sequels.

Exactly I love Vanilla Sky despite the fact that many didn't quite grasp it.

The Outsiders is my favorite. At the very least, it's way better than Jerry Maguire and The Firm. I'll take Vanilla Sky over either of those.
