Has his own movie channel on Sky. I saw it yesterday and thought wtf?

I refuse to believe there are that many people out there that can't spell. Too f**king lazy, that's what I think.

I detested Tom Cruise in his early days but I'm going to stick my neck out and say that some of his more recent movies have been rather entertaining and some excellent.

Minority Report is a good Si fi and Oblivion and Edge Of Tomorrow are quite good too. War of the Worlds was outstanding.
Mission Impossible has generally been a good series.
He was funny in Rock of Ages
Vanilla Sky is one of my favorite all time movies.

So old Tom is not so bad after all. He's not Clint Eastwood but not so bad.

I need meaning to watch Edge of Tomorrow as it has rave reviews

Is he black?

Most certainly not European.

The three that come to mind that he completely destroyed Jack Reacher, Valkyre and War of the Worlds the original was a totally brilliant film.

Thing is, I can't think of any movies in which he's the lead, which wouldn't be just as good with another actor or in which his character commands the performance. Maybe Born on the 4th July, Interview with a Vampire and Far and Away (which isn't a great film).

Rain Man, for example, he's in it, but its really Hoffman that you think 'wow what a performance'.

Risky Business - great film - but you could just drop Mathew Broderick in there (ala Ferris Buellers day off) and know that it probably would be as good or better.

Very much a comfort role actor.
