Good movie indeed. If Cruise ever deserved an Oscar it would’ve been for this movie. Not only does he give a brilliant performance, he also spoofs his own image. Moore is also very good, as was Robards (Cheyenne

However, I’m not so on the Seymour Hoffman-bandwagon: he’s surely a good actor, but there something that irks me about him; always the sad loser type (therefore, he wasn’t very convincing in Punch Drunk Love).

On the contrary, I think P-S-Hoffman is creepy! Therefore quite scary in Punch Drunk Love… but then I am scared of most people from Utah… hehehe…

I’m not on the Seymour Hoffman-bandwagon, but I do think he’s pretty good in this one.

In the extra’s on the DVD’s there’s a scene that is not in the film, in which Cruise raves on in his male-’confidence’ speech. Tacky, but amusing.

Tom Cruise was phenomenal!! I absolutely loved the scene where he is on stage. It is amazing to see such a short man rendered HUGE by sheer force of personality alone.
