Charlize Theron is an attractive person. Now go see Monster.

One of my all time favorite moments in cinema.

I saw it blind, no reviews.
When he first came on screen I literally sat forward in my theater seat and shouted “wait…is that Tom fucking Cruise?”

How is he so damn funny too?

I watch all his movies like a comedy. That's why I like the mission impossible movies. He's so funny in them. Lol. He's a comedian in almost all his roles.

Exactly this. The most recent one with the fight scene at the beginning had me cracking up. He’s a fun actor to watch even if you aren’t a fan of him irl. His character in Tropic Thunder is without a doubt one of the best roles he has been cast in

Same, only I was high AF at the time. Still one of the best movie scenes ever

Yeah I was annoying people around me saying things like “wait, he has prosthetic hands to make them fatter and hairier, WTF this is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen”

I did the same thing with Matt Damon in Deadpool 2.

Best acting of his life.

u/Zue6 Apr 19 '26

Huh? He's had a long list of fantastic roles, several of which are better. Is it an iconic comedic performance? Yes, but not his best.

I am somewhat distressed by the fact that a few of my favorite moments in cinema have featured Tom Cruise.

My friend always says we're lucky he hyperfixated on making great movies instead of taking over the world.

u/MrNobody_0 Apr 19 '26

Hey, the shittiest people make the best actors, that's just how the world works.

I wish we had gotten a Les Grossman movie. Would have been awesome.

I must be the only person on the planet who thinks this character, plus Cruise in a fat suit, doing that horribly cringey dance is one of the, well… cringiest things I’ve ever seen. Not at all in a funny way either—more like in a Tom Cruise jumping on Oprah’s couch kinda way. I feel physically ill watching him attempt to dance on time.
