I do like TC in Eyes Wide Shut.

I don't know if I've already posted to this thread.....


I love 'Far And Away' {I think I may watch it tonight, just 'cause} and I also loved 'Collateral'.

Never saw 'Eyes Wide Shut'.

And, I would vote that I like Tom Cruise. I am in a minority on that, it would seem, with a lot of folk but around this house, he is one of the top favs.

I think you are right.


The wire running between our brains is freakishly long. 400 miles long? Not to agree with everything that comes out of your mouth, but... I usually do. I almost said earlier that Rain Man is the only reason I don't hate Tom Cruise. If not for that role, which I think he played perfectly, I can safely say I'd be a hater.

Lesbians, fairies. For us to implement our plan I think you'd have to have a procedure, the outcome of which I'm pretty sure your lovely wife would find highly objectionable. You might not like it either. But it was a good hypothetical plan.

I thought he was in way over his head there. I just did not buy him as a doctor, at all.

I liked Minority report - but it may be transference of my P.K.Dick love.

Never saw A.I.

And Eyes Wide Shut is a film I seem to love more and more with each viewing

I watched it once and never gave it another chance. Maybe I should try it again.

Why so much hate against Tom Cruise? (Actually, its I hate TC, except in ____ and _____ and ____)

I happen to think Tom Cruise is a great actor, especially in the action genre, though, no matter what film, TC brings an intensity that few can match. He was great in the MI films (it wasn't his fault MI:II sucked. Blame John Woo), Collateral, Rain Man, War of the Worlds, Eyes Wide Shut, The Last Samurai, Interview with a Vampire ...
man, I could go on and on ... A Few Good Men, Born on the Fourth of July and that is still leaving off another half dozen good films.

Oh yeh, and Minority Report!

I liked Minority Report.
:)

I like Tom Cruise. I saw him jump up and down at the Chinese Theater before WOTW.

And for all you TC haters, I have two words:

Tropic Thunder.

He'll blow your mind.

I think Tom Cruise is a very good actor.

What he is not is sexy. He radiates zero testosterone. (My wife agrees with me on this.) His best roles are where he plays a dweeb who thinks he's cool but is in way over his head.

A few years ago, I came to the conclusion that I really enjoy Tom Cruise in the movies. His public persona creeps me out to the point that I forget how talented he is. He's the anti-Ben Affleck (his charming off-screen persona makes me think he'll be good in every movie, yet he disappoints again and again).

When Cruise finally launched his official website this month, I watched the video montage on the main page - if you doubt the man makes good movies, you really need to check out the video - you'll be surprised at how many movies you loved him in.

One caveat - for some reason, when you click the movie link on at least two of my computers, firefox crashes. Works fine on Safari, though.
