I watched the new Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation film last night. There was a scene in there with him riding a motorcycle, which I though would be a stuntman or CGI. But knowing that he likes to do his own stunts I googled it this morning. It was him riding the motorcycle, his handling skills were phenomenal!

There was also a scene where he is on the wing of a plane which was him as well. He has a huge swinging pair!

Kudos to him.

I don't normally watch Tom Cruise films as I'm not a huge fan and as to his Scientologist views the less said the better.
 
not keen on him either,but he is a ballsy little midget;)

I was 15 when I went to see Top Gun and became a lifelong fan of Tom Cruise (and Tony Scott, RIP). He's a much better actor than he's often given credit for (e.g. Magnolia) and can also turn in a great action hero performance. He's made a few bad films but then what actor hasn't (e.g. Sir Michael Caine!) and is still a box office draw.
 
He should have won the Academy for Born on the 4th of July. Good in Rain Man as well.
 
I remember reading a director asking the stunt director in a scene to get someone to do the car driving. Stunt director said Tom Cruise is probably a better driver than all the stuntmen he knows..
 
If we are doing tom cruise appreciation, then "Knight and day" is by far the most entertaining, kind of mainstream film I have seen him in, "a few good men" is one of my favourites too, with "vanilla sky" a close second/third

But I always enjoy his action stuff, he is very convincing and has an attraction that is undeniable.
