I Watched Every Tom Cruise Movie

[@therewillbefudd]

Damn, the DVD pulling is so simple, yet it somehow makes this one of the most suspenseful countdown videos I've ever seen. Great work!

[@AlexBoucher]

Hey! Thank you! That's what I was going for. Excited for your Little Mermaid ranking!

[@therewillbefudd]

@@AlexBoucher Oh hey, thanks! Gonna be a little delayed. I've had a few personal setbacks so I haven't been able to focus on the channel much for the past couple months, but I hopefully should be able to dive fully back into it soon.

[@Brad02K]

I got a mission impossible ad before the video. Didn’t even realise it was an ad for a whole minute.

[@ChuckD008]

He may be a Scientology weirdo but he's Hollywood's most versatile actor, the swiss army knife. He's been able to adapt & thrive with the decades, with a wide variety of performances that most don't have. He's a man of the movies.

[@alexanderwindh4830]

Yes. He's really done it all, and done it good.

[@AlexHarrison-zv4jj]

At least he's not Happy Science. Then he'd be a deity.

[@citizenVader]

Is that why he always plays a man who is a hero but needs the reassurance of a woman to get him to drive him to the goal. Versatile my ass, it's exactly the same role every frigging time 😂

[@TequilaToothpick]

​@@citizenVaderYou've clearly not watched enough Tom Cruise movies. It's embarrassing enough to say that anywhere, but utterly humiliating when you are saying it in a video about all his varied performances.

[@citizenVader]

@@TequilaToothpick well, I would say that I have seen enough. Thank you for your input, but I only regurgitate what I hear and read and agree with.

[@lukethemaker322]

Your typography work is absolutely insane. The amount of work that must've went into that alone is not lost on me. Stellar work.

[@clicheguevara5282]

RIght?? I noticed that too! Typography isn't difficult on a technical level, but it's very tedious and time consuming.

[@septembree]

the editing here is absolutely incredible, i had to pause this video everytime i did something else because i just couldn’t get my eyes off of this vid ! one of the best movie ranking video i’ve watched, if not the best

[@akoyoza]

This is genuinely one of the best movie ranking video that I've ever watched. Exceptional editing, content, research, and writing. This video convinced me to watch some of the movies mentioned.

[@QuartzGolem]

​@@MisterNoahExactly, people glaze anything Spielberg touches. Incredibly overrated film.

[@spriles]

The Tropic Thunder location is the only real misstep of the video.

[@ordinarryalien]

There's nothing wrong with loving it but I don't get why people think Tropic Thunder is so good.

[@Story2ScreenMovieReviewPodcast]

I actually worked with Tom Cruise on American Made as an FBI extra during Barry Seals incarceration bench scene where he discusses getting each of us Cadillacs. I never got a picture or autograph, I just saw him sitting there, memorizing his lines, and looking around. We both made eye contact, where I smiled and nodded at him, he smiled and nodded back at me. A precious little moment in my life, where things weren't going to well

[@juxtaposition9517]

Ey... Which one where you

[@clicheguevara5282]

I would have personally considered working with Tom as an example of the "things not going too well." Lmao ..but professionally, it's very cool that you had that experience nonetheless.

[@MyMy-tv7fd]

oh come on, 'Tropic Thunder' is a minor classic - in at no. 34? No way! It has that WTF-is-going-on-vibe throughout which makes it a sort of mystery thriller...or maybe not...

[@XstonedmonkeyzX]

He even managed to insert "Comedy" into the description of "Edge of Tomorrow"... its an INSANE comparison 🤣🤣🤷

[@jazzyboi1700]

Definitely worth the wait! I absolutely adore the DVD transitions it's such a creative way of doing things!

[@jacksonheiniger80]

Such a well-made video. Fantastic presentation, great structure. Agreed, Magnolia is easily his best, though it's followed very closely by Eyes Wide Shut for me personally. Keep it up!

[@wolvepotter5858]

Tom Cruise is the closest the real world has gotten to an actual real-life superhuman to the point where I’m genuinely concerned for his health

[@tacticaljunk1608]

I wouldn't be too concerned. Hollywood and the Church of Scientology will keep him healthy as a horse until his lifeforce is ready to be replenished by more child blood.

[@funsterkeyven]

You forgotten about Jackie Chan? Tom is amazing and he is held back by modern industry safety standards but he is not on the same level in terms of insane stunts ever done when you consider Jackie did most of it without any form of fall protection.

[@DexterWhite-v8i]

He's a BRAND, dude. A BRAND. Nothing more.

[@DJ_Cub]

What are y’all talking about? It’s an image. Would a super human get his ass kicked in a fight? Throw him in the UFC cage. Let’s find out who the superhuman is. He’s not even good at the things he does in movies. He’s done “baseball” things in several movies and can’t throw or swing a bat well.

[@davidnicholls1371]

I agree. Superhuman

[@ShinigamiMoon]

I may not agree with your ranking, but this was so compelling and one of the first long form videos in awhile that I actually paid attention to the entire thing and paused when I had to go do something. Fantastic job!! Just extremely well done

This video is so beautifully directed

[@samgold7958]

This video is AWESOME and thorough! Added many of these to my watchlist. Please keep 'em coming with other actors!

[@Cle_M3]

Dude I dont know how you dont have more subs, this production quality and breakdown are insane. I thought I was watching a multi million sub channel. Cant imagine how long this took you.

[@Winkiefacedd]

This deserves WAY MORE LIKES I know it has only been a week but these movie breakdowns are just phenomenal-ly edited

[@marcboucher6151]

A fantastic production. A most pleasant full length documentary on a Hollywood superstar of our times.

[@TrevorForrest]

Very excitedly awaited this from watching your Letterboxd reviews slowly go from Cruise to Cruise. Tremendous work as always!

[@bannnnner]

When you pulled out MI3 at 18 i died. Best balance between action & heart that not only gave foundation for the franchise but never surpassed. Not seen Lions for Lambs since the cinema, but I remember leaving with a million thoughts, and while I anticipated a compact retrospective here, I got nothing 😢

[@jonasfan2907]

The dvd pull and then cut to cover display and transition into clip is simply the best editing and set up I’ve ever seen. This truly made the video more interesting and appealing. I normally just listen to videos but I actually had to sit and watch this whole thing! I’ve never seen anything like this. This style will stick with me. Subscribed and ready for more!

The fight scene at the end of Jack Reacher is one of my favorites because it seems like two guys are actually fighting.

Dude this video is awesome, your intro is fantastic...Deciding to shoot the lineup of DVDs was great. even the scene transitions and music choices... your script... all of it.

I definitely don’t agree with the rankings (like having a Razzie Worst Picture winner in the top 20), but I appreciate all the work that went into this video. Pulling each DVD off the shelf was a brilliant touch.

[@monovision566]

One thing that’s an indispensable aspect of the Tom Cruise phenomenon is simply this: even if he wasn’t a great actor or a movie star who did great action and stunts… he’d still be one of the best PRODUCERS in Hollywood history. He knows what makes movies work. He knows who needs to be on the team to make it happen. He knows how to run a production before the director is even on a project, let alone on set. If all he did was serve in the producer role, he would still be among the best.

[@benrosesongbookandarchive2135]

KZbin attached a thirty-four-minute ad for fashion to your awesome video 😂 Sorry I skipped it... Anyway, I love the presentation of your essays and find that you've got a rich but always fitting style of editing.

Smooth voice, fella 😊 Thanks for putting in all those hours of work just to entertain and educate me!

Edge of Tomorrow is one of my favorite movies and one of Tom Cruise’s best, putting at below 19 other Tom Cruise movies is a crime.

[@sopranophantomista]

I also enjoyed Edge of Tomorrow. While it's essentially Groundhog Day But War, it was really refreshing to watch in a sea of sequels and franchise baits. I feel like there was real heart put into it, and I so appreciate the deviation in today's day and age of cinema. We need more one offs, honestly.

[@DRIVER95091]

in my opinion, my favourite tom cruise movie is Collateral, for some reason tom just nails this villian role right on the head and Vincet is probably one of my favourite villians mainly due to how smart, effiecent and manipulative he was, for some goddam reason the character is just so cool and so menacing.

[@lauwwuren]

Wow, love the editing on your videos. It’s gotten even better as you’ve continued to create as well, the physical dvds particularly bring something really special to the visual presentation of the video. I will say I disagree with your ranking of war of the worlds so highly tho, I could not get into that movie and found it very grating and the characters unlikeable from start to finish.

[@cameronrobinson3933]

What an interesting project. Depending on your tastes and sensibilities it's hard for me not to think that you're going to be watching some real bangers but you're also going to watch some real flops and the one thing you might see if you watch a whole bunch of Tom Cruise and a short period of time is the amount of intensity he brings to everything. He is one of my favorite actors on screen but not one of my favorites off screen. He's walked right up to the line of being somebody I don't have any interest in because of his off-screen antics that he's pulled himself back together and makes good movies still. I'm okay with intensity as long as is not a lot of collateral damage and it seems like he takes care of the people around him so who knows

[@darrylldoucette6895]

Very excellent job on this. I agreed almost entirely with your ordering. I would have had Rogue Nation change places with Fallout but the fact that you put them so close together makes it forgivable. Your number one was absolutely spot on. No substitute.

Tom Cruise understands what movie stars in the past understood, or rather the studios understood and that is a movie star should never be too understandable, because "familiarity really does breed contempt". People might say they want relatable entertainers, but that only goes so far, because as the internet and social media has shown us, these are also the easier targets to tear down as soon as they reveal something about themselves that people don't like.
