Tom Cruise Movie Guide: The Best Tom Cruise DVDs

The Ultimate Tom Cruise Movie Guide: The Best Tom Cruise DVDs!


Though just 5'4 and undoubtedly somewhat quacky, Tom Cruise starred in
some of the top grossing films of the 1980s including Top Gun (1986);
The Color of Money (1986), Rain Man (1988) and Born on the Fourth of
July (1989). By the 1990s he was one of the highest paid actors in the
world earning an average 15 million dollars a picture in such
blockbuster hits as Interview with the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles
(1994), Mission: Impossible (1996) and Jerry Maguire (1996). In 1990 he
renounced his Catholic beliefs and embraced The Church Of Scientology
claiming that Scientology teachings had cured him of the dyslexia - in
fact, he is so fond of scientology. Tom Cruise was married to actress
Nicole Kidman until 2001 - he now is engaged to actress Katie Holmes
and apparently they have a baby on the way.

The Top 10 Tom Cruise DVDs
1. Top Gun (Buy Top Gun DVD )

Goose. Iceman. Cheesy love scenes and one spectacularly unbelievably
beach volleyball scene where the movie gods want us to believe that the
5'4 Tom Cruise spikes a volleyball. Awesome.


2. A Few Good Men (Buy A Few Good Men )

All-star cast and intriguing war-crime storyline.


3. Rain Man (Buy Rain Man DVD )

Rain Man is great not because of Tom Cruise - but because of Dustin Hoffman and the premise of the movie.
4. Days of Thunder (Buy Days of Thunder )

Undoubtedly the best scene in the movie is the wheel-chair race between
both injured / hospitalized drivers. The first time I saw that scene, I
sat in disbelief.
5. Cocktail (Buy Cocktail )

Home of the classic Tom Cruise / bartender scene. Vintage Tom Cruise and wildly cheesey acting.
6. Risky Business (Buy Risky Business)

The movie that started it all and cemented big, black sunglasses and tighty-whities as suave.
7. Mission: Impossible (Buy Mission Impossible )

I firmly believe that Mission: Impossible was Tom Cruise's turning
point - the point where he fell way too in love with himself and his
movies started going way too over the top.
8. The Last Samurai (The Last Samurai )

If Mission: Impossible started that trend, The Last Samuri is the
pinnacle of Tom Cruise glorifying himself on screen. Still a gory and
enjoyable movie.
9. Collateral (Buy Collateral)

Jamie Foxx and Tom Cruise work well together - Foxx is excellent and Cruise is believably cruel.
10. Interview with a Vampire
Another all-star cast and well directed film.
