Tom Cruise is a perfect example of that for me.


Honestly, I would never argue that Cruise is a great actor, but he has generally been a good judge of which scripts work for him (or the Scientology handlers have been, anyway) - his acting skills were much better when he was younger - take Taps (very underrated in my opinion), All the Right Moves (probably unwatchable without Cruise) and Risky Business. He was better in those three roles than in almost anything since, possibly excepting Magnolia and Tropic Thunder. BUT, he made a number of entertaining movies along the way.

Yep, exactly. I don't really like him all that much as an actor, but he picks great movies and scripts for the most part, so I watch most of his films, and have enjoyed quite a lot of them.
