Many film fans love action films but avoid projects with Tom Cruise, as they consistently dislike the actor with his outbursts of rage on set, crazy appearances on talk shows and his close ties to the Scientology sect. But that’s not the case for everyone, Cruise has countless fans worldwide. This is mainly due to the fact that Cruise gives everything for his films and series like “Mission: Impossible” are among the most entertaining action blockbusters of the moment.
Still, Cruise is no guarantee of success. Films without action, in particular, benefit little from their well-known leading actor and often lose out at the box office. So Cruise is more of a problem here: The cost of the film increases significantly due to its high fee, so it takes longer to recover the budget later.
Netzwelt has compiled 10 films from Tom Cruise’s career for you, the earnings of which fell well short of expectations by Hollywood standards.
