4 out of 5 stars Flaws and Applause   December 8, 2005
  3 out of 4 found this review helpful

Wensley Clarkson's portrait of Tom Cruise seems balanced and well researched. We see Cruise as a competent actor whose private life is sometimes detrimental to his reputation. The incident cited by Clarkson on page 84 confirms this impression:
'Cruise was in New York's Hard Rock Cafe with his buddy Russell Crowe. To entertain the crowd, the two actors had been reciting some lines from 'Hamlet'. It was an impromptu performance and warmly received. They should have left it at that, but the booze quickly took control. Cruise, wearing a T-shirt that read 'Instant Idiot... Just Add Beer', did his hilarious Donald Duck walk along the bar while Crowe threw cell phones at him. The two finally fell into a stupefied heap and were hogtied by Crowe's friend, the Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin, and dragged out to a waiting limo. Some money changed hands and the incident was hushed up.'

Wensley Clarkson's biography is a revelation.



5 out of 5 stars Good book about a handsome jerk   July 22, 2005

Tom Cruise is handsome and misguided.

As an actor he is ok.

But his support for Scientology shows what a buffoon he is.



3 out of 5 stars Pretty good book   June 12, 2005
  3 out of 5 found this review helpful

Book reveals some of the details of Cruise's Scientology involvement (probably unnecessary now, in the light of his recent flood of interviews) but is even more enlightening when the author tells how the cult tried to shut him up while he researched Cruise's membership in Scientology.
