He and his scientology are so awful to people that I cannot stand to see him in anything ever. Which is too bad because that ruins a quite a few movies.

That’s one of those guilty pleasures, you know it’s bad but it’s good movies that you hate.


Yes! Long ago we would spend many a rainy Saturday watching this. Legends of the Fall is in the same category.

Agree with the poster who called it a guilty pleasure. *aigh* I always thought pre-crazy Tom Cruise was so cute.

Weird connection, but I’ll always remember this movie because of that.

I haven’t willingly watched a Tom Cruise movie in close to 15 years. Too bad he’s such a creep.


Yeah he creeps me out now.

But far and away was peak Tom Cruise.

That’s one of those guilty pleasures, you know it’s bad but it’s good movies that you hate. It’s kind of like watching The Brady Bunch or something now, but not hate watching it, just watching it to enjoy it. There were some good parts.

Just don’t tell me you’re going to watch Days of Thunder next.

It was always a shit movie. Always.
But he's made up for it since. the MI movies and Jack Reacher movies alone have made a huge difference. He's great and he gives up and coming talent the space to perform.

I loved that movie in middle school!

I remember seeing TC & NK on Oprah with Ron Howard (the movie’s director) after school a few days before seeing the movie. A bunch of my classmates (& my French teacher) saw that Oprah,too, & for some now unknown reason got into a long discussion about how they were they were the cutest couple while we were waiting for the bell to ring the next day. Too bad THAT illusion was shattered!

Haha that’s what I remember too- it’s been ages since I’ve seen it but it was when he was young and before he got creepy. I loved Tom Cruise back then.


Cute? All I see is his nose. Too big for such a tiny man. And the accent is so bad.

The Irish accent was epically awful.

As usual, Nicole Kidman does a fine job.

But Tom Cruise ruins it.

They should remake it with actual young cute actors.
