Tom Cruise: 5Movie Collection

Collection of five action dramas starring Tom Cruise. In 'Top Gun' (1986) Cruise stars as Maverick, a young fighter pilot enrolled at Naval college, training with the most gifted flyers of his generation, and competing for the prestigious 'Top Gun' award. Maverick soon establishes himself as one of the best in his class, but his insistence on doing things his own way soon brings him into conflict with his superiors and his main student rival: Iceman (Val Kilmer). In 'War of the Worlds' (2005) divorced father of two Ray Ferrier (Cruise) is looking after his children - uncommunicative Robbie (Justin Chatwin) and precocious Rachel (Dakota Fanning) - while his ex-wife Mary (Miranda Otto) goes to Boston for the weekend. After violent electrical storms start breaking out across the world, Ray goes to investigate the results of a lightning strike further down his block, only to witness a vast armoured machine break out of the ground and start laying waste to everything in its path. Fleeing New Jersey with his children, Ray begins a horrific journey through an America gripped by panic as the alien war machines start to systematically wipe out mankind. In 'Mission: Impossible' (1996) Cruise stars as master of disguise Ethan Hunt, an IMF agent hunted by his own agency after a mission in Prague goes wrong. Going to ground, he enlists the help of two discredited agents to track down the real villainous spy, a quest that takes him to the heart of CIA operations. In 'Days of Thunder' (1990) Cole Trickle (Cruise) dreams of winning the Daytona title on the stock car racing circuit, but his career seems to be ruined when he is involved in a near-fatal accident. However, with young doctor Claire Lewicki (Nicole Kidman) inspiring his recovery, Cole determines to attain pole position on the track once more. Finally, 'Jack Reacher' (2012), adapted from a novel in Lee Child's bestselling crime series, sees Cruise in the title role as an ex-military policeman-turned-vigilante drifter who is called in to investigate after an expert sniper takes the lives of five random victims. When the authorities pull in former army sniper James Barr (Joseph Sikora) they are certain they have the perpetrator, but Barr believes he's been set up and asks that Jack Reacher be assigned to the case. At first, Reacher is wary of Barr but after some thorough investigation he is led to believe there is an unseen force pulling the strings of the enquiry and he's determined to get to the truth.
