Although we think Tom Cruise does not always get the credit he deserves regarding his acting skills, it may have been because he appeared opposite some serious legends like Dustin Hoffman (Rain Man) and Paul Newman in The Color of Money that he looked like he couldn’t measure up. We always thought that Cruise held his own against Newman, and played the role of the pompous pool player who had a gift with a stick. Admittedly, we enjoyed the scenes with Newman more, but remember Vince embarrassed his mentor with a perfect hustle at the end. Of course, we also remember Ben Stiller’s impression of Cruise as “Wince”.




The Bullet Points:
Movies Appeared:
The Color of Money (1986)

Actor:
Tom Cruise

Played for:
N/A

Why you should vote for him:
He hustled the hustler. Enough said.

Why you should not vote for him:
Forgetting the pool isn’t a sport argument is that Cruise’s character was a few shades of annoying.
