I think out of those the best is definetely Rain Man. It has Tom Cruise's best performance to date in my opinion and Dustin Hoffman is excellent in it. I actually just watched it today and I never get tired of seeing it again.

Ditto! But, I must say Tom Cruise was excellent in Vanilla Sky, so I don't know which performance of his was the best. Rain Man (9/10) or Vanilla Sky (9/10).

Rain Man (10/10). Wag the Dog was pretty funny too (8/10), but what was up with the ending?

[Raw Chili]

Wag the Dog, Diner, Rain Man

[James Logan]

Of course RAIN MAN would be an obvious choice. I'm surprised no one said GOOD MORNING VIETNAM though, cuz that was one of the best Robin Williams flicks ever, and probably the most touching comedy about war I've seen.

For the record, I think that Tom Cruise's best performance is Magnolia, then Vanilla Sky (although I didn't like the movie itself: 4/10) and then Rain Man.

Actually, I think his best performance was in Born on the Fourth of July
As for Barry Levinson movies here are the ones I have seen:
Jimmy Hollywood 6/10

Wag the Dog 8/10
The Natural 9/10
Bandits 9/10
Sleepers 9/10
Rain Man 10/10

RAIN MAN! Dustin Hoffman at his best. Tom Cruise was good in the movie also (one of the few films I like watching him in). I should check it out sometime later, it's been a long time since I've seen it.

DINER

"Fenwick's in the manger..." :D

One of my Top Ten for 20 years now.

Rain Man and Bandits are my fav's

The best Tom Cruise performance is probably Rain Man, Magnolia, Jerry Maguire and Minority Report.
