I think he said on a talk show that for the part, he went "undercover" as something like a UPS or delivery guy just to see if people would recognize him. He wanted to have such a strikingly different appearance as to how we usually expect to see him.
This is such an exceptional movie and Cruise played his part perfectly.
Being such a massive Tom Cruise fan, I'm not sure I could just pick one. A few that stand out in addition to Collateral would be Last Samurai, Tropic Thunder, all of the Mission Impossible movies, Taps, Interview with the Vampire, Top Gun, Born on the Fourth of July, Legend, Risky Business.
But it was when I first saw him in Taps that I became a fan. He stood out so much among the other cadets. Even back then, he had a very strong presence.

Playing a "good guy," Nazi.
What an oxymoron!
LOL
(We need a similar thing to happen here only to take out the chain of command until we get someone less MAGA in the line.)

I agree.
Just showing the only way Nazis can be acceptable.
I don't think saving Jews was part of their intentions in removing Hitler but it would have maybe been a side effect.

Barf. No recommendations whatsoever. I'd rather be punches in the face than even look at that stooge.
I loathe that talentless psychotic little punk with every fiber of my being.
