I couldn't get past the disparity to thoroughly enjoy it but I didn't hate the movie.
Unless you know Tom Cruise's actual height, it was hard to tell how short he is in real life when compared with his appearance on screen. Except maybe with the scene where he stands beside Rosamund Pike, the actress who plays the defense lawyer.
