Cocktail & Top Gun got into my brain before I could properly see the problems with them or him. Donโ€™t think Iโ€™ve liked him since. Creepy midget ๐Ÿ˜

I haven't watched either.

I used to enjoy his movies, but then he just became a bigger and bigger arsehole irl,

and I also started to see how he often just wasn't good

one positive thing is that he's a very conscientious and hard worker

I grant he was good in Tropic Thunder, I think he was playing himself

That tropic thunder cameo was by far his best work

Good call. I would rank A Few Good Men as his best and my fave.

Ah yes. That one is solid. And Nicholson being revolting, heโ€™s very good at that.

I usually don't like Tom Cruise but I would not want anyone else in Top Gun. I think that's also because he was playing himself.
