Tom Cruise best role.

Does he play a better role than Jack Reacher?
Just watched both movies again over the last couple of days, and damn Cruise nails it. Really does a great job. Writing, directing is great as well, so that plays a part. Can’t see anyone doing much better.
Most Cruise action roles are about the same, but Reacher, he seems to play differently than the rest. Much better than MI.
Now Tropic Thunder was off the wall different and he nailed it too, but it’s not the same genre he normally does.

He's good in most things, but I like him the most in Collateral

Jack Reacher 2 is a turd above most turds.
The first one was good but nothing that special. What he did had been done over and over during the late 2000s.
His best role is Collateral without a doubt.

A Few Good Men was epic good.

I liked him best in Risky Business, personally.

His best acting is Magnolia. He shows every range of emotion.
He is a total douche nozzle. We see him go from total hate to sadness. Nailed the roll.
He is solid in almost everything. Also a nut who likes to do a lot of his stunts.
He is terrible with accents so Valkyrie and Far & Away suffer from his inability to nail and accent.

I’d say he plays a pretty convincing Scientologist nut job

Charlie Babbet in Rain Man.
I remember listening to Michael Caine answer this question back on an episode of Inside the Actor's Studio and he was very convincing. Essentially he said that what Dustin Hoffman did was relatively easy. He found the one note that made Raymond autistic and just get playing it. Tom Cruise actually grows throughout the movie, and as a movie goer you dislike him at first and grow to understand his issues with his father and just how difficult it is being around Raymond to ultimately hoping he'd clock the frick out of the therapist at the end of the movie who challenges Raymond and causes him distress. It was really a masterful role.

Not my favorite Cruise movie, but I feel Vanilla Sky is really under rated.

Tom Cruise is Tom Cruise much like John Wayne was John Wayne.
Top pilot, top pool player, top agent, top driver, yada yada yada
Try to think of a movie that John Wayne wasn't John Wayne.
