I agree with the OP. I think Cruise is a very good actor, and I was disappointed that he and Scorsese didn't make more movies together.
It seems to me like Cruise likes to work with different directors as opposed to just working with the same one all the time. He seems to have a max limit of two. 2 movies with Cameron Crowe, 2 with Spielberg, 2 with Tony Scott, etc. -

I kinda agree he's not DeNiro or Leo. He's very much an all-american hero in most films (bar a few exceptions) while Leo and DeNiro tend to play jaded, rough around the edges, mentally disturbed and unhinged characters. However I do rate Cruise's ability. My main concern is that Cruise makes films to make money and not to create art (once again - bar a few exceptions).
WHAT'S IN THE BOX?????? -

I am a big fan of Cruise, yes, but I don't think he would have fitted in any of Scorsese's other 80s/90s movies. I think he is a good actor but not one with huge range, imo. I don't think De Niro does either thoughhe is just more suited to certain roles, roles that Scorsese created back then. I dunno.
but I think if he made The Wolf of Wall Street in the 90s, Cruise would have been great, funnily enough -

De Niro and DiCaprio are better actors than Cruise, although Cruise still has made many fine films: The Color of Money, Rain Man, A Few Good Men, Interview with a Vampire, Jerry Maguire, Eyes Wide Shut, Vanilla Sky and Collateral.
