Happy Birthday - Tom Cruise (51)

Tom Cruise is celebrating his 51 birthday today!

Some people love him, some people hate him but of course, this comes with a job. Like it or not, he has remained one of the most popular and highest-paid actor in Hollywood.



This time I decided to do something different. I'm not going to write mini bio but top 5 movies from Tom.

1. TOP GUN (1986)
Directed by Tony Scott, Tom played hotshot Pete "Maverick" Mitchell.
Trailer: click.

I was obsessed with this movie and till this day, it still is one of my favorites. I love the story, fighter aircrafts, characters, handsome guys and soundtrack so much!

Fav quote: ''I Feel The Need... The Need For Speed!''


2. JERRY MAGUIRE (1996)
Directed by Cameron Crowe, Tom as Jerry Maguire
Trailer: click.

One of the most quotable Tom's movie. Combination of romantic comedy and sports drama.



3. A FEW GOOD MEN (1992)
Directed by Rob Reiner, Tom as LTJG Daniel Alistair Kaffee
Trailer: click.

90s classics, a courtroom drama that everyone should see.



4. RAIN MAN (1988)
Directed by Barry Levinson, Tom as Charlie Babbitt
Trailer: click.

In 1988 Tom has finally showed he can act in dramatic roles too. Tom's character was quite a jerk at the beginning but came to his senses.



5. MISSION IMPOSSIBLE - GHOST PROTOCOL (2011)
Directed by Brad Bird, Tom played Ethan Hunt
Trailer: click.

Franchise usually have difficulties to maintain its quality but Mission Impossible is a nice surprise. Tom is certainly perfect pick for this role and MI continues to be film with solid plot, full of action and fun.


PLUS: Quick look at recent Tom's work...
Last year we heared him sing in Rock of Ages and in action thriller Jack Reacher.

This year he starred in Oblivion.

Next year we can expect him in sci-fi action All You Need Is Kill besides Emily Blunt.

Future project... Mission: Impossible 5 is announced for year 2015.


Best wishes to Tom and to many more cool movie roles in the future!
