30 Best Tom Cruise Movies
11. Rain Man (1988)
If there’s one thing Cruise is skilled at playing, it’s a cocky guy. He plays to that strength in Rain Man, where he plays the greedy Charlie Babbitt, trying to take advantage of his autistic brother Raymond (Dustin Hoffman) and his ability to count cards.
For a film about trying to reform and being present for family, watching this film is a stirring reminder that Cruise is more than just a skilled stunt actor. His chemistry with Hoffman plays out wonderfully on screen.
