I just do not get all the Cruise hate. I like him and his films. He is not that great of an actor, but his flims are fun fluff and I cannot wait to see War of the Worlds, which I think will be cool fluff. Anyway, back to the bashing

It’s a great performance, with the electricity that’s been lacking from so many celebrity scandals of the past few years. It’s out of control, and that’s not a bad thing. Others may find Cruise creepy, but I’m enjoying his turn as the Aggressively Romantic Dork, a role that exerts its own wobbly charm."

Uh...excuse me? This reporter BETTER be kidding around.

I wasn't kidding.

I think if you'd watched Oprah and saw the whole farce he put on, you'd be like...eeh...he's uber strange. His sister is his publicist--she knew a good thing when she saw it. Nicole and her films have been getting all of the attention as of late--time to throw Tom back into the limelight.

I saw it. It was okay. I guess I do not harp on him too much.

"He’s an actor—and a good one. If his public image is spinning out of control, his screen work is stronger than ever. Last year, Cruise deftly executed a skillful thespian stretch as a silver-haired hit man in Michael Mann’s Collateral; he contributed a sharp performance to 2003’s otherwise jagged Last Samurai; and he locked into just the right mixture of paranoia and athleticism in Spielberg’s 2002 Minority Report. I haven’t seen War of the Worlds yet, but I know that Cruise’s acting is increasingly subtle and mature—he’s moving into middle age as a man who’s looking for roles that challenge his eager-pleaser image, an ambitious streak that only bodes well for the future. Michael Mann told me, “I never worked with a bigger star who was more ‘up’ for subverting what people think about him.”"

I never got over the whiney suing people for saying he's gay thing. That was oh so tacky and offensive. Some have said it was to protect his children. I've decided that's a bull****ty reason. Anyway, I used to like Katie, but...

Thank you, thank you, thank you for your glowing review. I ABSOLUTELY ADORE Christian Bale. Cannot wait for this new installment. And I agree, Katie Holmes is no actress. She should really just stick to Dawson's Creek caliber t.v. shows and leave the real acting to the professionals.
