Didn't Silva or Varese or someone do a compilation of Tom Cruise soundtracks back when they did those actor-centric albums?
While it is completely random (the actor really has no bearing on the music), the music for Tom Cruise movies is pretty astounding: RISKY BUSINESS (Tangerine Dream), LEGEND (Goldsmith), TOP GUN (Faltermeyer), RAIN MAN (Zimmer), BORN ON THE 4TH OF JULY (Williams), DAYS OF THUNDER (Zimmer), FAR & AWAY (Williams), THE FIRM (Grusin), INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (Goldenthal), MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE (Elfman) and MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE 2 (Zimmer), MINORITY REPORT (Williams), THE LAST SAMURAI (Zimmer), WAR OF THE WORLDS (Williams), OBLIVION (M83) etc.
All of those mentioned are solid gold (lots of Zimmer & Williams)!

My top 5 scores to a movie that Tom Cruise happens to be in:
1. Mission: Impossible by Danny Elfman
2. Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation by Joe Kraemer
3. Minority Report
4. Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol by Michael Giacchino
5. Born on the Fourth of July

Magnolia and Elfman's MI are my favorites.

Yes, brilliant scores for many TC movies:
Oblivion - M83
Collateral - James Newton Howard
The Last Samurai - Hans Zimmer
Mission: Impossible II - Hans Zimmer
Days Of Thunder - Hans Zimmer
Rain Man - Hans Zimmer
Top Gun - Harold Faltermeyer
Legend - Tangerine Dream
Risky Business - Tangerine Dream
Came to think of it, Tom probably speaks german in his sleep.

The first Mission: Impossible film score.
I've yet to sample "Taps" and IwtV.

I happen to be very fond of "War of the Worlds" (the Williams score, obviously). I don't think it has a lot of fans, but I'm one.
I think that everything about that movie is underrated. I should put that on now.
grrr not on streaming.

Agreed. Wonderful film and score! And the much-hated basement scene is the BEST part of it, IMO.
I believe War of the Worlds was the moment in time where Cruise Fatigue kicked in (Oprah Couch Jumping, Scientology etc etc).

I'm out of their favor today. 
Must have angered them by organizing my CD collection.
