I’m not a fan of Tom Cruise and alo never watched the MI franchise, but otherwise he knows how to pick good scripts… Last Samurai, Vanilla Sky, Tropic Thunder, Minority Report, Top Gun, Rain man, Edge of Tomorrow, The Firm. There are still a bunch I never saw so there may be some rotten tomatoes in the basket
He DOES have some bad movies, but not many. I really don’t like the guy either, but I like a lot of his movies. You forgot Oblivion and Jerry Maguire for instance.
Agree he had a very high hit rate, and personal life aside, I enjoy most of his movies.
But MI:2 and MI:3 are mediocre at best, and Knight and Day and Rock of Ages were massive flops (I haven’t seen either, but i they look horrible). Cocktail earned him a razzie nomination.
Don’t forget The Mummy remake, it was so bad they cancelled the Dark Universe because of it.
““Kurtzman called the experience “brutal” and described The Mummy as “probably the biggest failure” of his life.””
Ah, I’ve even seen that one! Good call
Knight and Day is 100% forgettable straight to streaming crap.
But Rock of Ages was as good as it could’ve been
Eyes Wide Shut. What a piece of crap.
I’d also add Eyes Wide Shut
His Scientology bullshit creeps me out to the max, but i have to admit that i will watch any movie he makes, because they are always good, and sometimes great.
Do yourself a favor, and watch the MI series. They are nonsensical but really fun, with some of the best action sequences ever filmed, and he does the stunts himself. They also get better as the series comtinues.
Gene Wilder was the first that came to my mind.
Then Richard Pryor.
🎶 Richard Pryor… didn’t have to catch on fire 🎵

Possibly the only proper answer if we put a minimum on the number of films required to be considered.
Yep, this is the one I was scrolling down to find.
Godfather.
Godfather 2.
The Conversation.
Dog Day Afternoon.
The Deer Hunter.All five Best Picture Oscar nominees, three winners.
Joe Cazale! Only five movies, but all five awarded nominees for Oscar Best Picture!
Dolly Parton
Me. I’m not in any films.
I was going to say Gary Oldman, but then I remembered that Tiptoes wasn’t a fever dream.
Tom Hanks.
I’ve never seen a bad Tom Hanks movie.
Tom Hanks is close, but Cloud Atlas exists.
Cloud Atlas was brilliant.
I wanted to like Cloud Atlas. It felt like it was fighting itself for air time. I’ll give it another try someday.
It really was.
He is in this abomination of a book adaptation for Incredibly loud and extremely close.
I actually kinda liked it and btw it was nominated for best picture
Elvis. Sully. There’s two right off the top of my head.
Fuck the film Sully for dragging the NTSB through the mud for fake drama. Absolute fucking hack writing that disrespects heroes of safety.
You should make sure to say T. Hanks.
James Dean. Credited in only 3 films (appeared in a few more as an extra):
- East of Eden
- Rebel Without a Cause
- Giant
All 3 are above average on IMDb (> 7).
Cory Chase
Joe rogan
Christopher Walken?
Biloxi Blues, baby.
“You would need two promotions to get to be an asshole.”
A View to a Kill is one of the worst bond movies
A shame too because it was such a waste to use Walken and Duran Duran in such a crappy movie.
2 people I know watched Mouse Hunt for the first time this month and both hated it. Not really his movie though, I guess
Viggo Mortensen
Bela Lugosi
Plan 9 from Outer Space!
Dubbed the worst film ever made. To be fair to Bela Lugosi, he had no choice in the matter as he appeared in it film posthumously.
Dubbed the worst film ever made.
hey no fair. being tricked as an art student into watching that is a rite of passage
I heard from Bauhaus that he’s dead.
Undead! Undead! Undead!
Rick moranis?
I knew it, I’m surrounded by Assholes
