30 Best Tom Cruise Movies

Even in his older years, Tom Cruise’s cockiness is still a highlight. That part of his personality is perfectly played up in American Made, a darkly comedic picture based on the true story of the pilot/drug smuggler Barry Seal.

Cruise’s desire for danger works well for this film about a guy who thinks little of the consequences when taking on dangerous missions. It’s a film that seems as though it could only work with Cruise in the cockpit.
