What about the halo jump in the last Mission Impossible? You know, the one the FX team royally messed up by making it look like it was CG.The last time he did a really insane stunt like this was that plane bit in the Mummy - it was an impressive stunt that took many hours in a falling plane to film. The movie was one of the worst I have ever seen though. It felt like a vehicle just to have this stunt he wanted to do. I hope this isn't more of the same.
A lot of his movies recently have been built around an insane stunt that Cruise just wanted to do - I'm all for insane stunts but the movie needs to be good too.What about the halo jump in the last Mission Impossible? You know, the one the FX team royally messed up by making it look like it was CG.
Win an oscar?Is there any limit to what he can do?
To get your work to fund a trip to the fecking International Space Station is a flex I am sure every single one of us here is envious of. I’ll probably watch whatever movie it is just out of sheer respect for pulling that off!The last time he did a really insane stunt like this was that plane bit in the Mummy - it was an impressive stunt that took many hours in a falling plane to film.

You think Tom Cruise has more range as an actor than Leo?Win an oscar?
Although, unlike say Leo, I don't think he overly cares. He's got some great knocks without being baity at all, and shown terrific range at times. Not sure Leo can claim that, he's just baited his way to it - though Gilbert Grape top performance that should have won it for him straight away.
God, if you are still on the phone. Keep him in space too. Thank you.Just please God make him keep his fecking shirt on.
I'd go :Would be my top 5 (in no particular order)
Last Samurai

I think he has it in him, he just opts not to use it and to make the big films that he does make instead.You think Tom Cruise has more range as an actor than Leo?
Oh yeah dont get me wrong - I'm impressed.To get your work to fund a trip to the fecking International Space Station is a flex I am sure every single one of us here is envious of. I’ll probably watch whatever movie it is just out of sheer respect for pulling that off!
He has - I would say Magnolia was his best performance... and that was over 20 years ago. I mean I actually kind of like him and feel a lot of his films are highly watchable, but he's been playing the same character in the same film for about 15 years now. The fact he hasn't taken on anything challenging in a long time does kind of say something about his talent as an actor, I believe. And I think Leo gets a lot of unwarranted flak, when his body of work is pretty damn impressive.I think he has it in him, he just opts not to use it and to make the big films that he does make instead.
He's put in some incredible performances though - particularly across the first half of his career.
you forgot Tropic ThunderWould be my top 5 (in no particular order)
Last Samurai

Collateral
Yeah, good list. Although, Last Samurai is a bit overly dramatic as all Zwick movies are, but still very enjoyable. Would just put Jerry Maguire somewhere in that.I'd go :

Minority Report
MI:5
Rain Man
Collateral... Or Edge of Tomorrow.
You're missing out on some very fun films and have managed to watch one of his worst!I've somehow only managed to see Tom Cruise act once, in Jack Reacher. Can't even remember what I thought of it.
I'll never be able to not just instinctively think of Scientology when I see his name or face pop up.
