Beyond other types of value judgments that always affect such popular characters as Tom Cruise in front of and behind the cameras, we are undoubtedly facing a very valid actor. Before the respectable stone me for highlighting Tom's virtues, we can agree that his dramatic records, still repetitive and tending to the cartoonish at times, perfectly serve the cause of the intensity and emotion of all kinds of adventures or suspense.
For others there remains animosity, the exacerbated criticism of a public ready to attack, due to simple overexposure on the big screen or due to its well-known eccentricities and all series of rumors. Despite this, I insist that we must recognize this actor's dedication to his craft in each and every one of the films in which he appears as the protagonist. Maybe he's no longer Tom, like him, a gallant worthy of Brad Pitt, but he's still the guy willing to shoot stunts as part of his job.
Around 50 movies, many of them blockbusters, where Tom takes advantage of that histrionics that goes from the simple look to facial expressions or gesticulation. Non-verbal language is in this case the main working tool of an actor that makes up for any other possible lack seen in the most purists of the seventh art.
Top 3 Recommended Tom Cruise Movies
Minority Report
AVAILABLE ON ANY OF THESE PLATFORMS:The precogs, victims of genetic experimentation, live almost completely submerged in an essential serum that places them on a plane of general consciousness, as headdresses, or rather sprinkled in this case, by the gift of the prophetic.
Charging with their peculiar Cassandra syndrome, the three brothers offer from their pool visions of upcoming events in their most sinister aspect. What is the same, they are able to predict a crime before it occurs.
And of course, honey on flakes for a police force of the future that, through a pre-crime unit, is capable of arresting criminals. If the matter contains a dose of treachery, then it is easier for them to make it easier for the unit's detectives, headed by an always efficient Tom Cruise (let's call him John Anderton). If it is a crime of passion, everything is precipitated more imminently because since there is no plan there is no prior time to think about taking someone away.
Until the little brothers point out Anderton himself as a criminal in the making and the subsequent investigation is launched to stop him at all costs. But the matter has its crumb, of course. The visions of the precogs have their echoes, a kind of deviation from the events to unfold. John Anderton finds his last hope in them because he has no reason to kill. Or at least that's what he believes...
Without a doubt the paradigm of the interpretation of Tom Cruise. A frenetic pace under which Cruise's performance increases each scene with that Hollywood drama but absolutely brilliant for this movie.
On the edge of tomorrow
AVAILABLE ON ANY OF THESE PLATFORMS:William Cage wakes up over and over again in a recruiting center to fight an alien species on the brink of conquering our world. Cage is none other than Cruise and with each new awakening he will have the opportunity to learn a little more about the strange matrix that traps the world in a sort of eternal return. But of course, that eternal return only happens for Cage, because in reality the world continues to move towards the final conquest of the world by this species of life that does not submit to normal space/time vectors.
It was to be hoped that, faced with the threat of the annihilation of our species, someone would have the necessary evolutionary advantage to confront this new evil. God or chance has his little things to preserve the different forms of life on each planet. Tom Cruise, that is, Officer William Cage, is one of the few capable of adapting, like a virus mutation, to this unfolding of reality.
There is a lot of humor in the attempts and re-attempts to adapt to reality repeated day by day. Kind of like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day. But the point is to make progress a little each day on the terrifying front where the last battle between humanity and aliens is being fought. The question is being able to convince recurring characters to join him on that day of reckoning. And every new day it seems that it will not be possible. Until finally one last chance arises, with no repeats possible...
Colateral
AVAILABLE ON ANY OF THESE PLATFORMS:Tom Cruise dressed up this time as the most maddening Robert De Niro from Cape Fear. Without a doubt the darkest characterization of him where his smile is more of a joker's grimace than the charm of an elderly gallant. A movie that is a hallucinatory trip to the night of Los Angeles. A poor taxi driver named Max Durocher has the misfortune of encountering the most inappropriate customer.
The typical plot in which any citizen is available in the middle of the darkest corners of the underworld. Submitted to a disturbing Tom Cruise who is carrying out his dire assignments while he keeps good old Max kidnapped.
The matter, of course, is taking turns that place Max in the center of the hurricane. And the beginning of his perdition that night serving clients in LA ends up leading him to an FBI chase and a race against time so that Tom Cruise does not finish his last assignment, the one that gives meaning to everything unfolding as it happened. …
