The Top Ten Tom Cruise Movies

Tom Cruise gets hated on a lot for being a pretty boy and a weirdo (if you’ve never actually researched Scientology, then please do before you make judgement that he is not crazy). He still gets some of the best roles and does more than a decent job at them. He is an Oscar worthy actor given the right roles, but he just makes too many blockbuster summer flicks to build a serious portfolio to have him go home with a statue., At least as a consolation he gets to go home with Katie Holmes.

1. Top Gun

A classic that belongs in anyone DVD collection. The scenes of the fight simulations, as well as the real thing, are way cool even the 100th time you watch it. Kelly McGillis is a bonafide 80s hottie and brings out one of the best serenades in movie history with “You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling”. Tom is incredible as Maverick, who lives up to his name as a lone wolf chasing the ghost of his father.

2. Mission Impossible 1

Tom does a great job bringing suspense and sophistication to an old favorite. Honestly, I think the movie was better than the television series, I guess the budget was a lot bigger too. To shows that he could be a perfect James bond, if only he were British.

3. Rain Man

A great story line coupled with stellar performances from both Tom and Dustin Hoffman make for ne of the most referenced movies in pop culture, even today (see the Hangover). You really feel the tension and personal struggle that Tom has with his relationships and with his own morality. A complete shame he wasn’t even Oscar nominated for this performance.
