They say that you shouldn't meet your heroes in person, but Tom Cruise is definitely an exception to that norm. Not only is he so inspiring about the way he delivers on screen, but even at the premiere, he was so present with each person he interacted with. When he spoke to me, we had the sweetest little conversation, but what he said to me is going to be a secret I will keep to myself for life. Everyone needs to go watch this movie. This is the best of Tom Cruise.”
