Tom Cruise's Post-9/11 Opening at the Oscars in 2002 ►► ua-cam.com/users/shortsJQdnJxntIfk
Cool
One of the most polished and classic Oscar openings!
Must be all that AWESOME scientology training! LRH is dead! Long live Tom Cruise!
MrMojoSuper training? More like brainwashing
Thebustermann In the wind.
Android Sent By Cyberlife Amen Mr. Brock.
@@MrMojoSuper He was always like this even in 80s and before Scientology.
Tom Cruise in 1968: I wanna be an Astronaut.
Tom Cruise in 2020: I am gonna shoot a movie in actual Space!
Which one?
@@uhhidk8253 he will make his next movie in Space but that won't be Mission Impossible movie.
@@AvPal_Arts oh nice. Thanks
@d Google about it. You will know. It's a verified fact.
@d It's true. Been confirmed by official tweets and all. But I think it may not be as costly as you think. It could just be one scene in space. Still expensive, but not as exorbitant as you make it out to be. Also, the definition of space is rather loose. It could be a high altitude scene, like the "space jumps" a couple of people have done. Edit: Though probably further out since SpaceX is making this happen.
The man stood there, looking like a billion dollars, oozing with charisma and class, and gave the best opening speech ever.
@@Hillgrov it was well written, and the way it was delivered was excellent + he has the confidence and charisma of a superstar, and people adore this kind of thing
also people who find this clip are most likely fans of Tom + fans of movies and the oscars in general
If you show this to a random person they might react differently
Thing is, people are often nervous in front of their peers, especially their professional peers, even actors. He made it look easy
@@Hillgrovkeep trying to be different the world cares clearly
For this context matters , it's post 9/11 people were in state of shock, contemplating there life choices, a lot of "why's" in their thoughts...and Tom answered it beautifully. If you remove 9/11 reference here it's pretty average speech.
@@Hillgrov Instead of ignoring/pretending something important didn't happen, it addresses it outright without being long-winded/depressing. It asks the question that is in everyone's head and gives a satisfying answer. It's not trivial. That's a skillset any leader wishes they had. Which to me explains why his movies are so successful.
As a soldier who deployed overseas, it was movies that gave us a slice of home and a moment of peace in a crazy world.
Absolutely right
You Americans are the reason for this crazy world.
Movies, tv shows, anime, forms of story telling are one of the greatest achievements of mankind because they make life fun and it's awesome, they make us cry and it's a good cry
I salute you sir 💪
@@ThePatriarchXCI91 What country are you from? You must be from a country that has never participated in warfare, oh wait.
Crazy that Tom Cruise was only 39yrs old then. He’s 60yrs old now this year in 2022 and he’s just had a huge box office hit with Top Gun Maverick.
People can say whatever they want but Tom Cruise is the most consistent actor of all time. Hell, even some of his weaker movies like The Mummy and Knight and Day were watchable.
He will win an Oscar for Top Gun Maverick
@@jackyb968 idk oscar is kinda woke...and they don't appreciate good action movies
@@jacquesdaniels2435 True, the success of Maverick was often brought up when talking about the decline of woke movies, so I doubt any activists would vote for Maverick. I don’t know how the Oscars work tho, maybe the people responsible for the event were just acting woke to please who they thought were the majority of moviegoers
@@jackyb968 He ain't gonna win Oscar I think. Can go for honourary Oscar like Jackie Chan and Satyajit ray won perhaps. However I doubt he cares.
Lots of Terrific influential directors and actors never won.
I'd give him an Oscar just for this speech, man it was beautiful, from what he said to how he said it
Classy, right?
Yes he's the 1#
Still can’t believe he hasn’t won an Oscar...
@@shookone568 Because he had dignity and didn't bow to likes of Harvey Weinstein just to win an Oscar.
He doesn't have any Oscar worthy performance, stop with the excuses
I mimicked his speech and the way he talks in a high school presentation. I got a round of applause. The teacher said, "that's how you do a presentation."
Ha gaaaaaay
Genius
I'll give you an applause for the dumbest comment I've seen in a long time 😂
Congrats!
r/thathappened.
One of the most dedicated actors of all times, even without winning and Oscar. Not because he’s not able to, but simply because he’s always opted to star for movies that couldn’t get him one. 100% passion, 0% obsession. Respect for that.
But paid very well instead. And that is a totally valid choice as many of the movies that won awards are utterly forgettable and merely reflect the predilictions of a small group of people disconnected from the common person.
Love the PULSE pfp man
You just blew my mind. It is ridiculous that he has never won an Oscar. He has been one of my favorite actors from day one. He gives it all on every movie he ever makes.
He was trying to go for it in the 80s-90s, something happened though to where he knew he couldnt win one because of film politics. The fact that he didnt win for Born on the 4th of July & Magnolia is sad.
@@BenWeeks Exactly, and that is why there is this quiet dislike for Tom in the Academy. Good looks, fame and wealth.
Back when the Oscars were formal and respectful.
"respectful" lol so many scandals about sexual violence weinstein frank white... funny guy you are
ichwilldasvideo3 ok yo this comment is 1 year old first off, and second off, the o s c a r s. Not Hollywood in general.
oscars stands mainly for hollywood
the O stands for O in h O llywood
ichwilldasvideo3 you have the big dumb
the man might be goofy sometimes, but he is gifted and has done some seriously good work. He deserves accolades. He has been the heart and soul of the industry for a long time.
The speech was written by another guy..
No doubt. I have respect for him.
@@qwerttzizzi True, but no one can deliver it quite like Tom Cruise.
he’s a scientologist
@@jamespader *scientist
What's precious about the Tom Cruise speech is that he actually means every word. It's clear that he has the utmost belief and conviction in the business and what actors were doing. Even in his Covid rant he hit the same keypoints. He's not only one of the most dedicated actors ever, but he's a credit to his industry.
2002 Tom was saving movies after 911.
2023 Tom was saving movies after COVID-19.
Legend above legends 💯
One year ago I thought he was crazy to come back to Top Gun. And now he’s able to stay on as Ethan Hunt is absolutely insane
One of, if not the last true American action star.
True!
@@ElliottsCreationsThe Last Great American Movie Star
Now do the 2023 writer-and-actor strike!
One of the greatest Oscar monologues of all time.
Yessss
Too true. Million dollar question: did he write it..? THAT would be awesome.
@@albertcharles7182 I wouldn’t be surprised if he had a hand in writing it. It seemed to come off very natural.
@@albertcharles7182 This whole monologs is his personal stories dumbass.
he shone
So people don't like this guy because he smiles a lot and jumped on Oprah's sofa? You'll all be missing him when he's gone because this man is one of a kind.
hey your comment made me cry, because i love this person by my all heart.
No we don’t care for him because he’s been brainwashed into a cult and made life a living hell for Katie Holmes and their daughter. He insulted Brooke Shields for using medication to treat her post partum depression. He may be a nice guy but he’s seriously misguided.
@@loonylovesgood He apologized to Brooke and Katie Holmes is a gold digger and she got all the money and the child so she deserves no sympathy.
Your comment made me cry
@We Are Venom you use the word slut so liberally, somebody cant get laid can he
What an awesome speech, how this guy has not got an Oscar is beyond me...one of the best guys in the business
I’m even more surprised he didn’t get a statue for Rain Man and Jerry McGuire
scientology
He doesn't need an Oscar, he's worth millions.
He's a deadbeat father, to hell with him
When he said "more than ever..." I got goosebumps, Tom Cruise is a living legend . A one in 7.8 billion
Yeah, we all are.....
yes hes on in a million for saying what someone else wrote for him. god you people are insufferable.
@@brandonmcgee1678Everyone's one in 7.8 billion
It’s almost 8 billion now 😅
1 in 8 billion now
Maybe I'm wrong, but I do think that Tom's love for cinema is bigger than whatever he feels for scientology. I respect him for how much he loves his job.
If they said hey no more movies I believe he'd be like "fuck off"
Ehhhh, Weird Harold
@@edwardmckenzie6988
That’s the last spark of him left.
Oh absolutely. That's why he hasn't mentioned Scientology in over a decade. Because it was ruining his reputation in that period when he was talking about it in every interview.
Handsome, classy, and charming with a lot of charisma and talent. They don't make 'em like that anymore.
Still doing wonders 20 years later. The true definition of a movie super star!
Last year I thought him coming back as Peter Maverick was crazy. For the most part, I was proven wrong
@@manuelorozco7760pete*
Tom is brilliant. One of his finest moments ever. Wonderful way to remember 9/11 as well.
True mate- I watch this everytime I remember oscar monologues
I notice that Tom doesn't have that "uhhm" some speakers have.
Fluency
discipline, total control.
Well because he has read the script many times and he is reading it out from a screen.

20 years after and this is still amazing to see! You can see his passion in the eyes for movies! Respect Tom Cruise
Top Gun and MI are the most recent examples of that
He needs to win one, he deserves it.
He shpuld have won for Magnolia.
No he doesn't
Innocent bystander # 5 yes he does
Tia Aaron - absolutely correct. He was mesmerising in that film.
@@theknowlodge8294 I can't believe Michael Caine won that year. He was easily the weakest of the nominees.
The Academy could have asked any actor, ANY, to open the post 9/11 Oscar night. And they asked Tom Cruise. He has been criticised over the years by jelous, envious and cinical people, yet he stands in front of a BILLION people (Tv watchers at home) and, with his teeth caged in braces deliveres an opening monolgue with style, elegance and tenderness. Truly a legend and one of the top actors to ever live.
nowhere close to a billion people. Most people dont give a shit about the oscars.
American arrogance... Billion viewers..lol
@@mahaduzumaki6643 There was 50m+ in just the USA in 2002.
It's 1/5th of that in 2020.
@@WayStedYou Exactly. A lot of Americans seem to overestimate how much foreigners care about their matters.
Nearly 20 years after this the Oscar ceremony today has hardly any relevant viewing figures.
I love it when someone hosts the oscars and they're really funny and let loose a few roasts, but even a simple touching opening like this goes a long way. Probs one of the best award show openings ever
They don’t make ‘em like this anymore! He’s the most believable actor IMO and he truly takes me on a wild ride when I watch him! God bless his beautiful soul. Love you very much brother, thanks for being a genuine human being! ✌🏻
I never heard someone say, "Pull up a sofa." before lol.
jakedizzle i dont even know what youre talking abt but sounds funny
Only in a world of giants
jakedizzle years later he would just up and down on that sofa like a little girl...
jakedizzle I read your comment just when he said it
honestly, tom on that oprah sofa is the most authentic ive ever seen him. also, i feel like tom would just pull up a sofa. hes an anomaly this guy so polished so over the top but still connects emotionally with alot of people, but it was a weird time and this was a good opening.
One of the greatest screen actors, don't care what anyone says. Every movie he's in you just can't take your eyes off him.
From Risky Business to Mission Impossible Part 37, the man is mesmerizing.

You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
I like it. It suitse you.
This was actually really beautiful. I’ve been it many times, but as I’ve got older I realise how right Tom got it when the country was still so raw and trying to heal.
And still got so far to go. I do hope Liberty and democracy never die
Damn. That was seriously powerful. This man really understands cinema, and I love the guy.
Say what you will about this man and his personal beliefs, he is absolutely a class act

A classy monologue but Just to think He did this in the midst of all that shock makes it a classic monologue. Boy we love him ❤️❤️🔥🔥

MAN I gotta say I almost became a Tom Cruise hater myself reading other UA-cam commenters on videos of his , people hating him cos of his religion and other baseless crap. I must say this is one of the best presentations Ive seen at the Oscars and also a glimpse of what a fantastic performer this guy is. Hats off.
Ganau, Respekt vor seinen Klasse Arbeiten und Danke !!!!!!!!!
@Karthik Nair You're definitely right. However, do you seriously think Tom Cruise wrote that speech on his own? Nonetheless, I appreciate the gesture and his work including Jerry Maguire, Vanilla Sky and Rain Man etc.
So many dislike him for absolutely no reason.
Tom Cruise is an example of someone who knows why they were put on earth. He has made purposeful decisions to use all his natural talents, constantly learning, putting In the hard work >100% and his superpower, his laser-like focus to optimise his contribution before he leaves this planet. Think how many movies we would not have been entertained by if not for him accepting the role. We are so lucky to witness the last global Hollywood movie superstar fully committed to entertain us.
Either you’re a Scientologist or have the type of celebrity worship that results in digging through their trash and tracking private jets.
And he's making that magic happen still. Maverick saved the theatre business.
And not one damn award.
There's been plenty of movies that saved the theater business. The Super Mario movie made a billion dollars worldwide in 2023.
@@wiilover07 Top Gun Maverick is 100x better and more successful than this child trash movie. 😂😂
Tom Cruise is the absolute man. He can go from insane lunatic, to total absolute badass, to the most respectful man in the room. One of the best
I like tom cruise. A GREAT american actor.
I love his 80s movies like, Risky Business, All the right moves, and Cocktail.
this June, in typical dad joke fashion, I promised my teenage kids that we'd be going on a Summer Cruise once school got out.
I quickly clarified that it meant we would be watching Tom Cruise movies ALL summer.
At first, there were a lot of groans and complaining, especially with all the right moves, taps and risky business but right around color of money and born on the 4th of July, I could see I was winning then over. It's been interesting to watch his older movies again, his skill has improved so much but he's always had the natural charisma and charm you see in this video.
My family went crazy for Minority Report and loved the MI series. They constantly asked - "what's our Cruise destination tonight"?
we just watched Top Gun and next up is the grand finale:
TG Maverick!
Cruise is officially the household favorite actor now but we all have different favorite movies.
hopefully someday my kids will remember this summer fondly 🤣👍
My boys are big fans now too - we did all the M.I.s, Minority Report, Oblivion & Edge Of Tomorrow. Same as you, we did Top Gun, then took them to see Maverick the next day. Superb.
thats such a good dad oh my god, i wish my dad did this, although he did take me to see top gun maverick! my favourite is interview with the vampire, but i also like top gun, top gun maverick, the M:I series and minority report
I'm about to cry over this after all these years and I'm not even a us citizen but a man who's grown up whole life in south korea. Still my deepest sorrow resonates with those who lost parts of their life
Cameron Crowe is my favorite writer/director, the man knows how to write what we feel, I connect to his films more than any other filmmakers
Boyhood..IT TOOK TWELVE YEARS TO MAKE!!
@@Eggplantman21 Richard Linklater wrote Boyhood
I don't care what religion he believes in or who's couch he jumped on or who he divorced or marries. I will always value him as an actor. He is one of the best. Unforgettable. Passionate. Respectful to his craft. Kind to his fans. Easy to work with. All-in with his film work, down to doing his own stunts, producing, directing, you name it. Pilot licences. Skydiving. Charitable. He's the master and he's brilliant.
Fuck the haters.
And he’s Maverick !
Top Gun 2 was a FANTASTIC movie.
who hates him?
Bruh... research scientology. Its more like a malicious cabal than a religion. He has literal servants
@@kylewalsh5397 I have researched Scientology and like all religions there are many things that we might not like, however, yours is just a perspective based on your own knowledge and experience, whatever that is. The thing is that you don't really know, you are only going by what you have read or heard or watched on a bunch of videos, you actually don't know through direct knowledge, therefopre what you say in essentially nonsense. Give me Scientology over Islam or Christianity any day or most other religions any day
Tom is one of my favourite actors if not my favourite actor that is a truly breathtaking speech I had goosebumps because I felt every word WOW
Their words "Should we celebrate the joy and music that movies bring? There I say, more than ever" pulled my skin into goosebumps, and I am in creases now.
Dare
Dare* i say
Tom cruise, arguably the biggest moviestar of all time.....
Without Tom Cruise there's no Hollywood. He's the face of Hollywood and the king of Movies. King Cruise.
That's a massive statement
Derek Escalante Jerry Maguire laid the foundation for romantic comedies and sports films. The recent installments of Mission Impossible (ghost protocol, rouge nation, fallout) have made it the best action series of all time. And the man can act. He is an indespnesible figure in Hollywood, and I would’ve missed out on a lot of great movies without him
Lmao, Hollywood would have been fine without Tom Cruise
Crazy person.
@@vaughnamir.6457 NO lmao, definitely not Jerry Maguire
He absolutely crushed that speech. It was basically a movie scene
He did not write that speech...
A gem of a person and actor. Bless him, what a speech.
I'm a proud undeniable Tom Cruise fan. Amazing actor.
Amazing actor. His movies are interesting and entertaining.
How do you not like Tom Cruise. I’ve been watching him my whole life. He is one of the best actors there is, if not the best. Thank you Tom.
he is the best
Best actor ever? You need to watch more film
He’s part of a cult bro. Practically one of their lieutenants.
My friend’s mom went to see Edge of Tomorrow because she wanted to see Tom Cruise die over and over in glorious 3D. It would seem that you can very easily dislike the man lol
I think he gets a bad rep because of the weird religion of Scientology that he follows. I don’t really care what his religion is. I have been a big Tom Cruise fan ever since I saw Top Gun when I was a kid.
A reminder of what is important and why movies still matter
I say amen as a millennial movie buff
He is so serious and focused. No entertainment. Plain art. Bravo!
The way he said... “More than ever.” Sums up why the creative arts have such power over us and our culture.
One of Great Tom's finest moments.
***** so 9/11 was totally unprovoked ? America never murdered abroad ? America never abused its power ?
***** Over 20'000 civilians in Afghanistan were killed as a result of U.S-led military actions since 9/11 but they don't count obviously..
Shylock40 they count if they are american
Shylock40 Don't worry sooner or later Iran and Russia will attack America if God doesn't do it himself soon. War is hell.
The man who saved Hollywood with top gun maverick,one of the best actors in Hollywood history ,saving the movies then ,saving the movies now
Do you agree that Tom Cruise is more famous than Tobin Bell?
He’s not wrong. Watching a really good movie makes you forget momentarily about certain problems.
It’s tougher than ever to find them
so much respect for this man. i dont care what religion he believes in. he is a true talent. one of the all time greats. class act. down to earth. 110% commuted to every role. he is truly underappreciated.
If they had an award for monologues this would be the outright winner.
You delivered a very eloquent, passionate, and purposeful message, Mr. Cruise, about appreciating the magic and joy of film!
Sep 12th was the greatest day in America. We were united. Then everything went downhill. All the way to Chris Slap.
He doesn't get the award yet delivers an award winning performace❤️
A lot of people say that’s actors, and people who make movies don’t contribute to society. But in reality when people go through hard times in life, or want a break from this world, or need something to enjoy and relax, things like movies/films and music are often an escape. I at least can say that this is true for my own experience...
He was not reading from a teleprompter initially! Amazing!
I have always loved Tom Cruise. He was the only star that could deliver such a profound opening in honor of the fallen and the magic of movies.
OMG he was so beautiful here....
nacht98 5 foot 2 & beautiful
so?
He’s like 5ft 8. People only started hating and picking on him as he had it all. The Scientology, the lack of 6ft 4. The guy was what you would call a stereotypical ideal model for an actor. Look at graham norton he used to mock cruise, now licks him up as if his show depends on it.
Thilor Bim he's of average height, but yeah apparently audiences have standards of a hollywood actor =/
The dude still makes films every year despite how "short" he is. The jokes on the retards that think that shit matters.
Costel Coaie average height is 5 ft 10in
Imagine being 40 and looking like that
Amazing
He’ll be 60 next year and he still looks good!
@@d4vidbjork not really. I have seen terrible botox

He is looking 40 years old here. Not too young.
On an unrelated note he mentions Billy Wilder in the beginning. This speech took place three days before he passed.
One man who really just loves the art of acting and making movies. U can tell he takes it really serious. Nothing weird about him just a man who loves his job
Now that was one of the best opinions I've ever seen, no political swings needed, just reminding people of how much movies can help the world in times as dark as those, next to a perfect speech for the occasion imo
Most of Americans are funny. They hate Tom because he believes in different things than them. I thought America was always big on freedom of stuff, like freedom of speech, freedom of practicing whatever freaking religions you want, etc. i guess those are just pretty, sugar-coated words. This man possesses tremendous talents and a lot of nerves. He's got a God-gifted face and the guy sure as hell can act. What else do you ask for in a celebrity?
+Iris H
Jealousy. The guy got a perfect look, though little bit short, super talented, got insane balls, can have any woman he wants, and he's ridiculously rich. people hate when there's someone live an almost perfect life and get whatever he wants, so they demonize and slander him.
OldSchoolLad my thoughts exactly
+Iris H Wait? When did most Americans ever hate Tom Cruise?
then let's go with "some"...
+Margaret H you're a moron. It's very fashionable to hate Americans these days. You're basically doing exactly what you claim we are doing to Cruise. We don't hate him, we just know he's nuts. He is a great actor without question, but you're a fucking idiot.
Only Tom Cruise could exude this much coolness and charisma whilst wearing a retainer
I remember how we were all told “continue to live as if they did us no harm. That’s the biggest middle finger we can give” if anyone remembers who said this please let me know but it became like a motto
I love Tom Cruise. I hate when people attack him for his religion. It's his business.
Don't we live in a country that we have religious freedom?
Exactly! Folks complaining about that gets so old! Every interview, talk show, red carpet event ect I see him in he comes across as genuine and full of gratitude.
I get what you’re saying but Scientology is not a religion it’s a cult.
It’s a cult lol, it’s notorious for abuse and blackmailing problems
@@josephinemateo2553 ,rather philosophy, however, What does it matter to you?? this should not affect your attitude towards him in any way. This is his game, which does not harm anyone.
You have sunk to the point that you accept homosexuals as the norm, but you will never leave a person the right to improve himself in his own way.
WHAT RELIGION says that you can change your genitals or have sex with a person of your gender? You are blindly led by the norms called by society, without filtering anything with your consciousness. Religion is good, homosexuals are good, cult is bad. But aren't there cults in your society?
@@Shellasta lmao, his cult literally has child slave labourers, pedophilia and sexual child abuse, at that point, its not just his business, it affects all of us as a human, just like how the churches were criticised for their child molestation, his so called cult/religion should be reprimanded too. I agree tom cruise is a good person, but human are grey, its not all black and white. The thing you need to understand is, homosexuality and stuff is about a persons own free will and consent. Child Abuse IS NOT. I am atheist so i couldn't care less which religion or god he worships, No one gives a shit if he was in some other shitty cult/religion. Scientology has done some very very bad things.
Your justification is stupid because it mentions not to care unless it affects you, which could be applied to literally all the human wrongdoings in the world. ''well, yeah, that guy has a kid locked up in his basement, but why do you care, it's not yours, it does not harm you'. His cult Literally has people killed, so it doesn't not harm anyone is stupid and your ignorance speaks for itself. I would suggest you to look into scientology before you wanna defend them in your ignorance, innocence or plain naivety
He is like the Sun, which no one notices, because it is always there. Like health that is always there and you can rely on. I did not notice him all my life too until I recently saw that he is an inspiration point for most of the great people on our planet. And yes, I think he really is the most perfect person I've ever seen.
And many people point their fingers at the sun, saying it is harmful because it causes burns.
Damn this comment though lol
You don't at stare it, ladies. :p Calm down.

40 years old, wow 👌
What a talent, he even does his own stunts.
God must love talented people, he makes so many
I think after the pain of 9/11 the Oscar bosses thought that Tom was the right man to bring hope back again that night. And boy did he deliver. He gave them hope.
I wouldn't have wanted the job. Tom did it very well.
what charisma
My ex was on deployment when Tom Cruise visited her ship. She said he was an absolutely entitled prick and I completely believe it.
oh ok
Tom saving the movie industry 1 decade at a time
Seriously, I never understood why people hated this guy so much. He had to work VERY hard to get to where he currently is, and he deserves EVERY ounce of fame that he is getting. He isn't arrogant, though he may have strong beliefs. He just was and still is a man with a dream, and guess what? HE ACCOMPLISHED HIS DREAMS!!!!!
Honestly I used to hate tom Cruise, because of the hype and the showbiz
He gets most hate bc of Scientology and because that’s a shady religion, but then again, their „core belief“ (if they still believe in that) is actually not a violent religion. And everyone says he’s kind and easy to work with, and I believe he’s very consistent in his acting and very devoted to doing his own stunts and all that. Great actor, and unless he harms someone, he can believe what he wishes.
He ages like a fine wine they say.
Remember when we were all on the same team?
This is a speech I won't soon forget. I really love his acting and his movies but this is next level. Wow.
Tom Cruise needs to stop doing so many sction films and get back to doing great character dramas, such as Vanilla sky, Magnolia, BOTFOJ, Rain man, Collateral, Last samuri, jerry maguire. He would've been great in flight or up in the air!
What is the third movie?

A few good men
Prambir Minhas I think because he's not a typical "Hollywood" actor he was boycotted on this level (n'rarely recognition for outstanding performances) so now he's focusing on action/sfiction that he produces and definitely enjoys
He's made a couple bucks. I'd take a break.
I'd always admire Tom Cruise as an actor. He does most of his stunts and make great movies. People may not like him because of scientology but that doesn't make him a bad person. He'll always be one of the beautiful faces in Hollywood.
Binning his daughter for a cult makes him a less than great person. Good actor, bad dad.
The charm of Tom cruise never fades away.
"More than ever" is what defines this man
