The War of the Worlds

Although it isn’t the most faithful adaptation of the classic H. G. Wells book of the same name, 'The War of the Worlds' is still very much a great Tom Cruise movie.

The actor, who stars alongside Dakota Fanning and Justin Chatwin, turned in a great performance as Ray Ferrier, a family man who is determined to save his children from the impending alien invasion.

The Steven Spielberg-led picture also proved that Tom Cruise could fit into the sci-fi genre just as well as his action movies.
