6. Days Of Thunder (1990)
Days Of Thunder Follows the story of Cole Trickle (Tom Cruise), as he tries to become a champion NASCAR driver. From his start as a rookie, to his training, to eventually winning a race, the story will keep you engaged. The rivalry between Cole and fellow racer Rowdy Burns ( Michael Rooker) intensifies throughout the film, eventually leading to disaster. The story was written by Tom Cruise and Robert Towne, and is a typical Tom Cruise film. This leads to an entertaining, although predictable film with plenty of flashy scenes to keep you hooked. The characters are one dimensional, the plot is as stock as a car rolling off the assembly line, and the acting is ok, but it all adds up to a fun car film that can be watched again and again.
