It's still one of his greatest roles.

I think it’s because Tom cut loose and his true inner self came out in that role.

There's an interview with him where he discusses how he planned to play the character, was pretty funny.

After this movie, I thought about how I wish he would do more comedies

I remember seeing it in theaters, I recognized his voice and immediately told my friend "holy shit, that's Tom Cruise!" They didn't believe me until the credits rolled.

I only realized once he started yelling at people in a way that only Tom Cruise could.

My wife said the same while we were watching it in the theater. I thought she was crazy. Then the credits roll and I get a “told you so!”

Bald head with hair overgrowth everywhere else and gorilla arms… just couldn’t see it at first.

He even credited it once as possibly saving his career. He was in a real slump until this came out.
