The Most Memorable Tom Cruise Performances Throughout The Years
Whether or not you like the guy, it is tough to deny that Tom Cruise is a worldwide superstar. Cruise has been in the Hollywood spotlight for almost 30 years, and shows no signs of slowing down any time soon. Sure, he’s had his share of duds over the years, but he has also starred in some amazing films.
But which films have been his best? The following movies are my favorites starring or featuring Tom Cruise.
The first movie I will mention also happened to be my Halloween costume last year, and that film was Risky Business. The scene in this movie where Cruise is running around his house in sunglasses and socks has become an iconic scene.
Jerry Maguire was arguably the greatest role of Tom Cruise’s career. It was probably as close as he will ever get to winning an Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role, and had it been released in a less competitive year, he very well may have won.
One movie that I have to include on any list of Tom Cruise films is without a shadow of a doubt, Vanilla Sky. This is one of my favorite movies of all time. It is one of those films that the more times you watch it, the more you pick up on.
One film that holds a special place in my heart is Cameron Crowe’s Vanilly Sky. From the casting (Cruise, Cameron Diaz, Jason Lee, Kurt Russel and of course Penelope Cruz) to the soundtrack to the cinematography, I love everything about this movie.
Of course, one movie that must be mentioned on this list is Rain Main. This is an absolutely incredible film, and Dustin Hoffman delivers the role of his career. It was no surprise that this movie won the Oscar for Best Picture of the Year.
One movie of Tom Cruise’s that I have yet to see, but have only heard amazing things about, is Magnolia. I don’t doubt that this movie is amazing, considering the great Paul Thomas Anderson directed it, and it is without a doubt the next film of his that I need to see.
