It’s not an accident that Tom Cruise’s forgotten classic is having a moment after 23 years

Tom Cruise is easily one of the biggest movie stars alive today, and he's been at it a long while. From Risky Business and Top Gun in the 1980s, to A Few Good Men and Jerry MaGuire in the 1990s, to Minority Reportand War of the Worlds in the 2000s, to the Mission: Impossible movies of the 2010s, to the giant success of Top Gun: Maverick in 2022, the guy has never slowed down. Even the lesser movies in his catalog still slap decades later.
