Skeptic7 Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 The mention of Liam Neeson made me remember the under-appreciated movie Rob Roy. Excellent flick and Tim Roth is amazing in it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony5 Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Greatest film in many ways I ever watched is Ghandi. Film I watched the most times ( about 8 times), and still brings tears to my eyes in the closing scene is Dirty Dancing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khon Kaen Dave Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 giddyup I havent read any of the Reacher books and have only seen the one film,So i didnt have anybody to compare Cruise to.But if you say so,then you are probably right.I thought Cruise played the part well,but as i said,i didnt know any better.A thousand apologies.

Ramen087 Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 21 hours ago, Khon Kaen Dave said: The last Samurai.I totally agree.in my opinion the best thing that Tom Cruise did. Now, in his grown up years, Reacher is a great character. I think Cruise is a darn good actor. I'd say it is no mistake Newman, Nicholson, Scorsese and many other excellent actors and directors worked with him from the mid 1980s thru the 1990s. I also would point out the early 2000s as a period he made some very good films.. This includes Vanilla Sky, Collateral, Minority Report and The Last Samurai.

Cruise doesn't get enough credit for his body of work. Probably because of his weird off-screen persona (sometimes) and that whole Scientology thing. But the guy's done some memorable stuff. Along with the movies you've mentioned, I'd include Color of Money, Interview with a Vampire, Mission Impossible(s), etc. I think his best work was Born on the Fourth of July.

Ramen087 Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Berk... I agree 100%. He was nominated for an Oscar for his portrayal of Kovic. Also for his supporting role in Magnolia. Wish he would get back to similar roles as opposed to his recent concentration on action oriented efforts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
