"Tom Cruise" can't lose, even when he portrays a bad guy. People love him, and they flock to his movies.

His latest is "Collateral" and it was tops at the box last weekend grossing nearly $25 million.

The movie co-stars another of my favorites, the zany "Jamie Foxx," as a hapless, aspiring writer. Hmmn, that sounds familiar.

"Jada Pinkett-Smith," that little cutie-pie, is in the movie as well, so now I'm really interested.

And last but not least, the versatile but troublesome to directors, "Val Kilmer," is also in the cast.

Maybe Tom can figure out a way to extend his winning ways with movies to his significant other relationships.

Wait a minute, what am I thinking? This guy has had Mimi Rogers, Nicole Kidman, and Penelope Cruz, among others, in his life, which ain't too bad.
