How does Tom Cruise keep finding work?

He has yet to make a movie that isn't entertaining...he is a movie star.


~I see a little silhouette of a man, Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango.

the Mission Impossible movies have been putting Bond to shame. Edge of Tomorrow was fantastic with both action and depth. Les Grossman is about as far a departure as any actor of his caliber has done. you're talking out of your ass, OP.

Nicholas Cage deserves all the slack in the world for the good movies he's made be it the it thing to give the dude *beep* or not. con air, snake eyes, face off. all great and those are just the ones that are more my time.

not everyone can be Denzel doing just one movie every once in a while where the entire production seems to revolve around them.



if you don't have anything nice to say ...you're probably a butthole

Well, he's done a variety of movies that are not action based movies and I think he is a fantastic actor. He's just been hurt by tabloids and such.

I don't believe fine directors such as Oliver Stone, Stanley Kubrick, Steve Spielberg, Cameron Crowe, Sydney Pollack and Paul Tomas Anderson would agree with you that he is "plain terrible".

Movies that I find his acting incredible:

Eyes Wide Shut
Rain Man
Born on the Fourth of July
Interview with the Vampire
Magnolia
Jerry Maguire
Collateral
Vanilla Sky
Valkyrie
Lions for Lambs

He's one of my favorite actors.

I have the feeling if I met him in real life I wouldn't like him at all, but I go to the movies to be entertained. There are other actors that from everything I've read about them they seem like wonderful people that would be great to get a beer and eat some pizza with; but their movies just never hook me.

He used to be good. Played all kinds of different roles and did them well. But he has been on a straight cookie cutter action hero for awhile now. He is very capable of being great. Collateral was one of his best. Maybe he just enjoys action films.

Or, if you don't understand why movies make money, why all of the movies he's in make money and why he keeps getting hired because of that... you might just be stupid.

You do know that he basically owns United Artists, don't you?

I like both Tom Cruise and Nicholas Cage in some movies, but you are right. I'd say there are more Cruise movies that I like than Cage movies though, even though I really fkn hate Cruise.
