"...Tom Cruise may be short and he may be intense, but he's anything but an actor.
He has never successfully portrayed anyone but Tom Cruise - ever..."


I think you are being overly critical. Tom Cruise has a movie career that spans decades and includes many diverse characters. Just a few examples:

He played that cocky young guy in Risky Business
He played that cocky young guy in Top Gun
He played that cocky young guy in Mission Impossible I, II and III
He played that cocky young guy in Minority Report
He played that cocky young guy in Rain Man
He played that cocky young guy in Days of Thunder
...
Oh, wait...

Oh, and don’t forget his stunning portrayal of a cocky Nazi.
