    Decent actor. Never will be the best, but can hold his own.

    agreed with joony, I voted for 'alright'. I did like him in Collateral, he should do more roles like that, he's pretty good as a douchebag.

    I think he's a really good actor. He could be a little more selective with the m ovies he chooses to do.... but when he is at his best he;s top notch imo

    He is doing a movie where is some bad guy right now. Not sure when it comes out.

    I think he can act pretty good.
    The problem is, he chooses a lot of roles/movies where he doesn't have to 'act'.

    he's done a lot of diverse roles in some great movies:
    • The Color Of Money
    • Born On The 4th Of July
    • Interview With The Vampire
    • Eyes Wide Shut
    • Mission Impossible
    • Magnolia
    • War Of The Worlds

    You can't deny his talent....he just seems to put people off.

    Yeah, I was thinking about it, he's played many different roles. His performance in Colllateral is seriously good. He just is an annoying little douchebag, it's hard to like him.

    THough I do like the fact that a fellow big nose like him is so popular with the ladies.

    I liked Cameron Diaz a long time ago. I thought she was pretty hot in The Mask, but she really went downhill.

    Tom Cruise is a pretty good actor. The best performances I've seen him in were Born on the Fourth of July and Collateral.

    I feel that he was very good in A Few Good Men, as well as some other roles he has done

    Do you know who's a bad actor? Hugh Grant. I fucking hate that cunt, Cruise definitely isn't on that level, he's a good actor.
