ACG: you are way off on your estimates son, its no wonder you get laughed at like you are the town bafoon. tom cruise is 5'7" flat, dig?
silver says on 29/Jul/10
why do you keep on sayng "top gear" when is "top gun"???
? lanky guy says on 29/Jul/10
Did you see him on top gear. Jeremy clarkson is reputed to be 6'5" tall. Now Cruise stood in front of him for a long time - the top of Cruise's head came up to Jeremy's nose, so that would make him, what say 6" shorter than Clarkson around 1.8m tall. his shoes appeared to have built in lifts on them. But its possible the guy is around 5'9". WAtch it on you tube. Mind you though Clarkson could be 6'4" in shoes, which means Cruise would be 5'10" in lifts. In conclusion Cruise is between 5'8" -5'9". Shaun says on 29/Jul/10
Stallone comes across as an inch taller than Cruise in my book. Both live in lifts but I think 5'7" for Stallone is a myth. 5'8" is the very lowest I can see Stallone. Danimal says on 29/Jul/10
Parker, the debate has NO restrictions or conditions, according to what YOU want it to be. Do you understand that? Good, now you may proceed with your dictatorship. Brad says on 28/Jul/10
LouLou makes G a shrimp. Viper says on 28/Jul/10
I agree jtm. Danimal said he saw that 5'6 3/4 height listing for Cruise in a magazine and it seems believable to me.
The guy isnt taller than 5'7. Thats always been obvious. ACG says on 28/Jul/10

RisingForce, don't bother wasting your time with Danimal; he obviously isn't too intelligent.
So, are you still scared of getting over the 107 pound mark at 5'8" kid? Very intelligent of you to be as thin as a scarecrow. Women like men with meat on their bones. Not men they can crush.. Get a life and do not knock my intelligence. You've never met me and if you did, you'd live to "eat" your words (pun intended)
1. I'm much healthier now, thank you very much.
2. I absolutely love it when women crush me(no joke).
3. Why would I need to actually meet you in order to gauge your level of intellect? I can quite easily ascertain the ample amount of ignorance you possess by simply reading the tremendous number of bullsh*t posts you contribute here.
Your believing that Stallone is under 5'8 and that Cruise is 5'6.75(solely on account of an '80s magazine article, no less) speak loud volumes in regards to how daft you really are. And that goes without mentioning your childish and immature behavior when it comes to disagreeing with someone else. Only dumb assholes(i.e. yourself) resort to such juvenile name calling/labeling; bringing up irrelevant and inappropriate issues whilst combating others' conflicting opinions. Grow up, dude, and grow some brains while your at it.
Cruise is no doubt over 5'8". No by much, but he most likely wakes up at or just barely under the 5'9" mark. SecureMan is 1000% correct in this instance, just as he is with each and every other of his observations. Aleks says on 28/Jul/10

I can settle the Tom Cruise issue. I met him a few years ago. He was shooting a film where I live and was in my store. I am 5ft 6.5in and standing face to face, we were the exact same height.
Thank you. Thank you. RisingForce says on 28/Jul/10
Hahah, 5'7.5" peak for Stallone? So how did Stallone pull off looking fairly close to weathers height in slippers with his ankle position looking pretty normal in Rocky 3? Weathers is 6'1", even if you want to downgrade him to 6'0", that'd still mean Sly had big lifts in slippers. Look at them on the beach training and Sly is in very thin sneakers with shorts so if he had big lifts you could tell.
Hell, Sly looked 5'10" in those scenes, I can easily buy that being an illusion and him being 5'9" or even 5'8.5", but under 5'8" back then? No chance. And he'd need 5-6 inch elevators to look as tall as he did on Letterman's show back in 2003/2004. he was basically looking eye to eye with him. great says on 28/Jul/10
he definetely gets 2.5 inches from the munsters, stallone style Vegas says on 28/Jul/10

Cruise at 5'7 is just downgrading , Stallone at 5'7 is insane ! I also don't get why some think Cruise is much shorter , just because Stallone has bigger arms ?
It's not insane. He was the EXACT same height as 5'6.5"-5'7 1/8" Glenn and Cruise had on bigger shoes and had better posture. He was never over 5'6 3/4" in his life...
Danimal - You have been on here over a year. Did you not see the photographic illustration Rob posted showing Cruise to be 1.5 inches taller than Glenn??? Metric says on 28/Jul/10

Parker, while I don't believe Cruise is under 5'7", I'd bet he has lifts in those boots. I mean a below average height man wearing boots in an action film with a tall female co-star. Solid 5'7" IMO for Cruise, like I say 5'7.25"/5'7.5". anonymous says on 28/Jul/10
all you are showing us parker is that cruise is a 5'7" man who loves wearing lifts wherever he damn well pleases. LouLou says on 28/Jul/10

@casey. yeah that´s probably true, it shows that height is not such a big factor anyway RisingForce says on 28/Jul/10
I have to say now, a flat 5'7" is definitely possible, though I'll stick with 5'7.5" for now to be safe.
Check out these munsters Click Here Click Here And you can see his ankle position here. Click Here

His legs look WAY too long there. And don't be fooled by Nicole Kidman bending, he's still shorter than she is in flats. Click Here
At first I saw this picture and thought he was basically reaching her height. Click Here Here you can see that she is still taller. Click Here Here you can see she's bending to look at him! Click Here
I really have to question when he's not in lifts of some sort. I mean we've discussed his sneakers and while they may not be custom elevator sneakers, I've put 1" insert lifts in Nike sneakers no problem and they're comfortable and difficult to notice. Look at his shoes up close here from 1994. Click Here Jason D says on 28/Jul/10

With 5'6 Oprah Winfrey on her show a couple of years ago doing a cooking demonstration, Oprah had on some 2-3 inch heels. Tom Cruise had on some black dress shoes. Oprah was slightly taller by the smallest of margins. So i would say Tom Cruise is 5'7.25" to 5'7.5". ROB, downgrade him NOW!! (^)_(^)

Parker look at his elevator shoes to the max! Probably slipped in lifts as well. Parker says on 28/Jul/10
Here's another of Cruise and Diaz from the set of Knight and Day.
Click Here
Diaz footwear an inch? Maybe slightly under, but is standing perfectly straight. So if she is 5'8, she'll be standing at 5'9. Cruise is relaxed posture, admittedly with footwear advantage. If he stood straight he'd be standing at 5'10. So again I ask, do the 'Cruise is under 5'7 brigade' really think he's getting 4 inches from those shoes?? Danimal says on 28/Jul/10

@great Your exactly right, I can't believe nobody else is noticing that. Your thigh's are longer than the bottom half of your leg's and look at how weird his look. Waaaay out of proportion. Those have gotta be 3 inchers or 2 1/2 atleast. Viper says on 27/Jul/10
In reality, Stallone is in the 5'7 range today. Hes 2 inches shorter than his 5'9 wife. Anyone who says Stallone is over 5'8 is nuts.
Cruise could be as low as the high 5'6 range, like 5'6.5-5'6.75 Id say.
Hes 5'7 MAX either way. martini says on 27/Jul/10
Does it matter at all how tall Tom Cruise is? That discussion will lead us nowhere. I think there are bigger problems on earth we should discuss than about 2-3 cm of a celebrity. jed says on 27/Jul/10
After seeing top gear I'd say Cruise is 5'8. He had lifts on, sure. My dad pointed it out and actually paused it on sky +. Realistically they would have given him maybe an extra inch over normal dress shoes. Considering 5'8 Diaz had heels on and was slightly shorter I can't see how cruise is not at least 5'8. casey says on 27/Jul/10
the thing is he is more successful and better looking then anyone who posts on here great says on 27/Jul/10
look at the pics from parker again. the one from the side. he wears at least 2.5 inch lifts, no lower leg can be that long Anonymous says on 27/Jul/10
He was wearing secially made shoes on BBC Top Gear show recently. He was giving him a boost of 2.5 inches. I have always said 5'6 for Tom. great says on 27/Jul/10
parker, the lifts he wears in ýour pics are quite big, i mean i am not saying 4 inches, but
the look at the guy´s lower leg, look at how long it is in relation to his upper leg. Shaun says on 27/Jul/10
Well sorry guys but 5'7" or lower is too low for Cruise. I saw him on Top Gear and he was looking 5'9"-5'10" range in his "footwear" compared to 6'4.5" Clarkson. He was looking at least two inches taller than 5'6.5" Hammond looks compared to Clarkson. Maybe he is packing something into those shoes but even considering that 5'7.5" is the very lowest I can see him. I think Rob has this spot on. Also no matter how "short" Cruise is, I'd much rather have his face and hair and be short than be very tall like Clarkson and not good looking. the shredder says on 27/Jul/10
Cruise at 5'7 is just downgrading , Stallone at 5'7 is insane ! I also don't get why some think Cruise is much shorter , just because Stallone has bigger arms ? Parker says on 27/Jul/10
Look guys, if Cruise is under 5'7 Rob is going to have to start downgrading a lot of people on this site. Stiller,Fox,Pena,Beckham,Katie Holmes,Hoffman for starters. Also, I think Cruise is the same height as Cameron Diaz.I watched 'Top Gear' on Sunday, Diaz was in heels and Cruise was close in height irrespective of lifts. Also have a look at these pics

In every pic, Cruise actually looks taller. If Diaz is 5'8, she is wearing footwear to put her at 5'9....please don't tell me you think Cruise walks around in 4 inch lifts.
Here he is standing next to Diaz in shoes putting her at 5'11, again he's standing at 5'10.

Lets stop this nonsense of Cruise being under 5'7. The debate is whether he is 5'7 or 5'8. The people saying Cruise is under 5'7 are the same one's saying Stallone is 5'7........utter BS. anonymous says on 26/Jul/10

@ Cman
First of all, don't ever post pictures to judge height when we don't have the complete picture, meaning, we need to see the entire body! Second, Cruise seems to be bending forward and Kanye is closer to the camera.
Crappy picture for judging height. Parker says on 26/Jul/10
jtm says on 25/Jul/10
i just saw a picture of him and frank sinatra from the 80s and he was clearly shorter than him also keep in mind that sinatra was probably shorter than his 5'7 peak height since he was in his late 60s or early 70s.
Also keep in mind Sinatra never left the house without his lifts. Chris says on 26/Jul/10
My husband has a pair of boots with heels and the front is high like TC but if you notice the heel, there isn't much of one, so I'm guessing the high heel is in the inside to give him the illusion of height. Shaun says on 26/Jul/10
When you take away the lifts and place Kidman and Cruise side by side she'd have 3 inches on him barefoot. 5'7.5" is my best estimate for him. Shaun says on 26/Jul/10
SecureMan says on 21/Jul/10
5'8.5-5'9 easy.
LOL, yeah that's why he was so close in height to 5'10.5" Nicole Kidman when she was wearing flats and he was in lifts. She dwarfed him. CMan says on 25/Jul/10
With 5'8 Kanye West??
Click Here bandet says on 25/Jul/10
jtm why is it you never seem to listen? If you look at Cruise's early films it's pretty damn clear he is a good 5ft8 if not a fraction or so more. You only seem to look to justify your nijurk reactions. All these people seeing him in public when he would always be wearing his supposed lifts and they're still calling him a midget. People in the main, are pretty clueless with skewed perception of celebs when they then see them in reality, i think there's a condition named after it. It's why Hitler was called short when he was 5ft8, which would have been pretty average in that time. Not that referencing Hitler is enjoyable. Nice moustache though....(joke)..... Jacob says on 25/Jul/10
Actually I still believe Cruise is 5'8" during most of the day, but the problem is, if there is one celebrity in hollywood who is the KING of wearing lifts it must be Cruise. In all those recent pics of the Knight and Day premiere Cruise looks only one inch smaller than Diaz who's 5'11" in those heels. Even more amazing is the fact that his footwear doesn't look like the superlifts a lot of people here want to make us believe he wears. I think Cruises footwear recently is even less obvious than that of Pitt. In the red carpet picture lemon presented, Cruises boots look to have a normal 1-inch heel, however, sceptics will say now he's wearing high insoles. Okay, take another inch. Wearing 2 inches of insoles would make you have a funky posture, and Cruise looks to pose normally. jtm says on 25/Jul/10

5'7 MAX and could be in the high 5'6 range lemon says on 25/Jul/10
Parker: personally, looking at ankles position (especially the right one), I think he has lifts inside.
Of course it's just my opinion, I could be wrong ;) Krigare says on 24/Jul/10
Ah Tom Cruise's height is such a mess...years and years of debate and he still appears at both extremes of his theoretical height spectrum. After those pics...Diaz can't be a full 5'8. There's no way one man can give the appearance of 5'9 and 5'6...it's almost like he has a secret twin of different height. Parker says on 24/Jul/10

definitely lifts there in the uk.. but hey, i he looks pretty close to cameron in her heels , which give about 6 cm, i reckon. the boots still look quite stylish and he doesn´t have an obvious heel on the outside.
aferall, tom is not that short. i guess, he is not the kind of guy, who uses more than 1.5 inch lifts like downey jr, who appears clownlike. anonymous says on 24/Jul/10

Interesting quote from Top Gear's Jeremy Clarkson in the morning paper, talking about Cruise and Diaz appearing in the programme Sunday (Filmed this week)
'They (Diaz and Cruise) turned op early so they could spend more time playing. They were both completely charming and, contrary to various reports,Tom is a good four inches taller than Richard Hammond'.
Now I know he may have been exagerating/joking but I've no doubt he saw Cruise taller. Hammond is listed at 5'7 on this site. Parker says on 24/Jul/10
Fair enough Rising (that Anon poster was me, not sure why my computer had dropped my name). I've said previously, I alternate between his listed height above and 173, but thinking about it he didn't look as tall against Glenn as Rob did, but there again I would argue Rob could claim a legit 5'8.5.
5'7-5'8 doubt we'll get closer to that without a stadiometer measurement, even then there were numerous people who couldn't agree what Glenn's height was even after 3 measurements haha! Viper says on 23/Jul/10
Anything over 5'7 is ridiculous Jacob says on 23/Jul/10
If there are any cyclist fans, he and Cameron Diaz visited the Tour de France arrival today to meet, greet and pose with the winner of the day. On the picture below you see him and Diaz next to Alberto Contador, who is listed as 5'9.25" on the official Tour de France cyclist pages, and since they have to have a medical check-up several times a year, I trust that this information is correct. I watched the live emission and I must say: Cruise didn't looked about just as tall as Contador, I could've sworn I saw Cruise even taller at some point, but that's probably perspective playing a role. I didn't notice anything unusual about Cruises footwear.
Click Here RisingForce says on 23/Jul/10
I had him at 5'7.75"/5'8" for a while so really a half inch, and the reason is, I just don't see him closer to 5'8" than 5'7", he's got great posture and more often than not, I think he wears lifts, yet on his best days he passes for a 5'9" man which points to him being closer to 5'7", but I say a strong 5'7". anonymous says on 23/Jul/10
parker, go watch his early films to see cruise's real height. he is 5'7" flat. he wears lifts. he was several inches shorter than 5'10" chris penn. chris penn was 2.5-2 inches shorter than 6'0.5-6'1" chris tucker in rush hour. 2 inches shorter than an aging 5'9" paul newman. 1 solid inch shorter than 5'8" joe pantoliano (who was 4 inches shorter than 6'0" tommy lee jones in fugitive) he is 5'7" flat jtm says on 23/Jul/10
secureman cruise was wearing lifts when you met him. jtm says on 23/Jul/10
i agree with viper. 5'6.5 is way more accurate than 5'8.5. look at him in top gun. he was towered by val kilmer and looked tiny next to tim robbins. 5'6.5 is as accurate you could get for cruise. even 5'7 is too high for him. SecureMan says on 23/Jul/10
He's over 5'8, that's for sure Viper. I think you know that deep down as well. Infact, I'd been inclined to say that he's around 5'8.5... Viper says on 23/Jul/10

spielberg is a flat 5'7" and so is cruise. Aleks says on 22/Jul/10
Parker, if Cruise is taller on other pictures, it's because of his lifts. How can you miss the obvious? Spielberg is NOT an actor, it's not likely he's wearing any of the suspicious footwear Cruise is. ACG says on 22/Jul/10
RisingForce, don't bother wasting your time with Danimal; he obviously isn't too intelligent. RisingForce says on 22/Jul/10
Danimal, was that ever confirmed in any way? Reading it in a magazine really doesn't mean much. If you think he looks 5'6 3/4" then I won't argue with what you think he looks, but where is the evidence of him looking that height?
If we're getting anal about quarter inches then once again, I give him 5'7.25"/5'7.5", no more, no less. In munsters, he was still marginally shorter than 5'10.5"-5'11" Nicole Kidman in flats whose legs didn't look completely straight. In normal lifts with his good posture, I think he can pass for 5'8.5"-5'9", but he's obviously not that tall barefoot. Parker says on 22/Jul/10

Listed measurement of him in the late 80's: 5'6 3/4". Aleks says on 22/Jul/10
Assuming 5' 9" is average height, let's look at the numbers on this site.
185 men are listed at 5' 8" while 254 men are listed 5' 10"
117 men are listed at 5' 7" while 228 men are listed 5' 11"
95 men are listed at 5' 6" while 231 men are listed 6'
The numbers should be close because they represent the same % to create an average height. Doesn't make much sense does it? Here's the proof most heights are fudged. the shredder says on 22/Jul/10
Aleks He does look shorter , Honestly look at him Barefoot with his wife and look at him with other 5'7 guys , He does not look that short , You really still think he is 5'7 ? ACG says on 21/Jul/10
SecureMan has the perfect username, in the sense that he is obviously secure enough about himself and his height to NOT constantly downgrade every single celebrity here, just as so many other folks here do.
He is simply stating the truth and the heights he has given for Stallone, Cruise, Pitt, Gibson, etc. match up VERY well to every bit of available piece of video footage and photograph-- whether you want to admit it or not....some just live in denial, but not SecureMan. Aleks says on 21/Jul/10

Aleks, again, like I told you before, Frank2 NEVER MET CRUISE. Get your facts straight. He said he saw him from a far getting into a limo at the Minority Report premiere. His estimate for Cruise was a flat 5'7". I trust Frank for most of his estimates, but he seemed to have some sort of vendetta against Cruise. Parker says on 21/Jul/10
If Nicole Kidman is as listed here (5'10.5), I've also seen 5'11 listed for her, then Cruise to me is standing at 5'10 in his lifts here.

since when stiller is 5ft8? lol Will says on 18/Jul/10
Cruise is 5'7 1/2" barefoot. But he could possibly be 5'10 1/2" with those lifts that he consistently wears. Those lifts has heels that give him three inches higher. But Tom Cruise is certainly of minimal average height, but he is not short IMO. barker says on 17/Jul/10
Parker's correct..Cruise has at least an inch on 5'8 stiller. In Risky Business, there's a scene w/ a barefoot Cruise next to 5'10 Joey Pants. Cruise looks no more than 1 inch shorter. john says on 17/Jul/10
the average height of an american is 5'10. Most stars are tall and handsome. In the average world he's a slighty short male. In dreamnland hollywood sure he seems short. I'm 5'8 and know what it feels like to be short. Making fun of someones height isn't fair because its not something someone can change or fix. People act as if height makes u a superior person Parker says on 17/Jul/10

@ ATG
people here assume katie is 5 foot 9
A tad unfair. Some people may assume she is 5'9, but there are a number that don't - me for one. Having said that, I do think Cruise is as listed above - close to 5'8. From the hundreds of pics I've looked at with Tom and Katie I don't think she is a full inch taller. Here's the oft posted pic of the two of them with Beckham:

After 5 hours out of bed, 172 for Tom 174 for Katie.We'll never know. Most people couldn't agree on Glenn's height even after Rob had measured him 3 times on a stadiometer and posted the pics haha! So there's no chance of everyone agreeing on Cruise's height. Kristian says on 17/Jul/10
I dunno he looks awfully short next to Ali, also he was probably wearing lifts then because that was in his lift wearing prime, which would put him at 5 foot 6 almost definately a says on 16/Jul/10
I'll say 5'7. That picture of him with katie holmes is photoshopped to make her head look longer (god knows why...) but if she's 5'8 or 5'9 he looks 1.5 inches below that.
He looks a little below average, has a tiny frame and probably weighs about 120 lbs. I remember seeing the only full body shot of him beating some thugs down in Collateral and seeing how short his legs were. He gets ratted on for his height because he acts like a "ladies man". I actually think he's homosexual but taller people are statistically more likely to be homosexual, so maybe not. Brad says on 16/Jul/10
Look with Muhammad. He's as listed with the champ. Kristian says on 16/Jul/10
@ ATG
FINALLY, someone that has some common sense, people here assume katie is 5 foot 9 and make claims based off that, when it is so possible that katie herself stands at 5 foot 8. That is so possible and would put cruise at a steady 5 foot 7, yet people never even think of that. Dwarf says on 15/Jul/10
Tom Cruise is not a dwarf and neither is he a midget. He is a well built muscurlar man of acerage heigt Gene- says on 15/Jul/10
5 foot 6 and a half- To think he's taller is a genuine gaffe- short man legs and undersized calfs- Parker says on 15/Jul/10
Aleks says on 14/Jul/10
Look at the pic with Ali who's 6' 1" (some say 6'?). He is MUCH shorter than him
Huh?
Click Here
The top of his head is at Ali's eyebrow, which means he's 5'9 if Ali is 6'1, or if they are both in standard shoes Ali is standing at 6'2 and Cruise 5'10. In reality Ali has probably dropped to 6', Cruise 4 inches shorter = 5'8. Aleks says on 15/Jul/10
Sly is 5' 8" and can pull off looking 5' 11" with his footwear. Cruise can't. Anonymous says on 15/Jul/10
do we see him barefoot in Far and Away? in that movie he looked 5ft8 to me. Parker says on 15/Jul/10
Bri says on 14/Jul/10
I'm a huge fan of Interview with the vampire, which starred Brad Pitt and tom Cruise and Brad Pitt is said to be 5'11" and when Tom Cruise stands next to him in that movie Tom is about 1" or so shorter. I doubt he is 5'7" but I can believe he is about 5'9", maybe 5'10"...
I read somewhere that Tom used height enhancing footwear for that film..I read it in the media so it may well be false. However, like Bandet, it is quite refreshing to come across others who think he is taller than I do (5'8). The majority believe he's 5'7-5'8. I've seen Posters on here convinced he is 5'3 and 5'10....quite a range. Viper says on 14/Jul/10

Agreed. And nobody rags on Stallone, Depp, Farrell, Damon, Nicholson, DeNiro, Penn, Wahlberg, Downey, etc. and these guys are all his height or an inch taller than him at most. Gorda says on 14/Jul/10

Cruise is at least an inch shorter than his wife, when he is in sneakers and she is in boots with a heel of about an inch and a half (there is a pic of this in one of those links below).
That would make him 2.5 inches shorter than his wife, right?
Wrong - Your scenario would make him 2.5 inches shorter than his wife if he was barefoot and she kept the 1.5 inch heel. So if she was 5'8 +1.5 Cruise would be 5'7.5, and if she was 5'9 Cruise would be 5'8.5. Your scenatio of course. I think he's 172/173.
Put another way, I think he wakes at 5'8.25, and by lunchtime(Rob's listed heights) he is 5'7.75. A 5'7 listing as he is on most sites, is good enough for most people (not us of course haha)
I'm 100% convinced he's between 5'7 and 5'8, and 5'9 in standard shoes which is where I think his 5'9 claim comes from.The flak he gets from the media is ridiculous, Stiller,Hoffman,Black,Pacino,Pena,Fox,Pesci or all noticeably shorter than Cruise and don't get anything like the flak Cruise gets......I think it's sour grapes. Anonymous says on 13/Jul/10
Hoping for a down grade here...He does not look 5 feet 8 with Cameron Diaz and with Katie Holmes that foot wear makes me wonder! 5 feet 7.5 at the min. here would be great lol! He simply does not look 5 feet 8 and maybe a tad over 5 feet 7 wouldn't be bad if it could be looked at.... Aleks says on 13/Jul/10
Parker says on 13/Jul/10
Interesting - Is there anyone on the site you think is taller than they are listed?
Off the top of my head, I'd say Tony Curtis. There are also a few listings I find quite accurate SAK says on 13/Jul/10
I do not buy he is under 5ft7, he is in the 171-172cm range. the shredder says on 13/Jul/10

Joe Pantoliano is listed 5' 9" here, and in RISKY BUSINESS, he looked around 3 inches taller than Cruise.

Aleks says on 12/Jul/10
Parker, yes, most listed heights here are wrong. Damon, Downey Jr, Farrell, Stiller, Wahlberg, Lautner, Stallone, Pitt, Pacino, Fox, De Niro, etc. I could go on and on and on.
Interesting - Is there anyone on the site you think is taller than they are listed? TJ says on 13/Jul/10
addie, think again. If Cruise is around an inch shorter than his wife when she is in heels of about an inch and a half, it's her that is getting the height advantage, not him. Your scenario actually has them at a similar height. jtm says on 12/Jul/10
yes viper i don't know what i was thinking. Viper says on 12/Jul/10
According to ACG's brainwashed mind Katie is a Troll as well, considering shes even said 5'8 for heself, lol. Viper says on 12/Jul/10
jtm says on 9/Jul/10
5'6.5 next to katie and i thought he was the 5'9 he claimed.
My God JTM, you are a TROLL for estimating Cruise at that ridiculous height!! Go see a psychiatrist NOW, lol Viper says on 12/Jul/10
Stiller could be as low as 5'4.5. I have him at 5'5 though. Cruise is 5'7 MAX either way. jtm says on 12/Jul/10
just look at cruise with 5'2.5 penelope cruz. addie says on 12/Jul/10
Cruise is at least an inch shorter than his wife, when he is in sneakers and she is in boots with a heel of about an inch and a half (there is a pic of this in one of those links below).
That would make him 2.5 inches shorter than his wife, right?
I did not factor in the sneakers are running shoes, not flats.
So, How tall is his wife?
Someone here said she is 5'7," someone else said 5'8."
Tommy is 5'6" if he is lucky or his wife is MUCH taller than we think.
Just an opinion. Aleks says on 12/Jul/10
Parker, yes, most listed heights here are wrong. Damon, Downey Jr, Farrell, Stiller, Wahlberg, Lautner, Stallone, Pitt, Pacino, Fox, De Niro, etc. I could go on and on and on.

Joe Pantoliano is listed 5' 9" here, and in RISKY BUSINESS, he looked around 3 inches taller than Cruise. klem says on 12/Jul/10
Flat 5-7 in the evening would be my guess, he might be 5-7.75 out of bed. Parker says on 12/Jul/10
An under 5'7 Cruise would mean Rob has got a high percentage of celebs on this site wrong.....and I'm not talking half inches. Cruise at under 5'7 puts Stiller under 5'5. No way.

Katie is 5'8, not the 5'9 she says. That adds to some of the confusion.

jtm it would be nice if you accept your height and stop downgrading others' delusionnaly. Mathew says on 11/Jul/10
I don't think he's over 5'7". He can't be 5'8", remember the pics with Glenn? Tom was stretching himself for all he was worth to look even with 5'7". Was that really worth nothing? I'd put my money on 5'6.75" for Cruise, an inch shorter than this listing. Viper says on 10/Jul/10

@Dural: shoulderpads? I don't think so. I don't think he was wearing no shoulderpads in Tropic Thunder for example. Did you see him dancing in that movie? Look at this mofo's hands, they're HUGE! Seriously dude, huge hands. :) John says on 9/Jul/10
Stupid comment below. When you're big boned, you look taller than what you really are, not shorter... jtm says on 9/Jul/10
5'6.5 next to katie and i thought he was the 5'9 he claimed. Dural says on 9/Jul/10
Magnus says on 6/Jul/10
He appears to be smaller because of his large frame. Tom Cruise is a heavy, big-boned and broad-shouldered man.
-----------
It's called shoulder pads. RoyH says on 8/Jul/10
5ft7" is hardly a midget. its smaller than average but its definitely not a midget. Im 5ft8" and i am slightly below average and am rarely commented as being short. there are plenty of actors who are that height and smaller. Including Mel Gibson who i have met and he if he is any taller than me it must only just be millimeters. The fact that tom is good looking, people are more critical about him. My experience with it...girls dont care what height you are as long as they dont feel butch next to you. Viper says on 8/Jul/10
Tom Cruise broad shouldered? No way Aleks says on 8/Jul/10
Brando was 5' 8.5" tops. He didn't look short because he wasn't really. Cruise, on the other hand is probably 5' 7" out of bed. jtm says on 8/Jul/10
brando was a little under 5'9. Aleks says on 6/Jul/10
Marlon Brando had a large frame (speaking 50s, of course) and never looked short because of it. He was a true 5' 8" man. Magnus says on 6/Jul/10
He appears to be smaller because of his large frame. Tom Cruise is a heavy, big-boned and broad-shouldered man. That makes him appear short and stubby but he is actually is of average height. An average height man on a large frame. Mamun says on 6/Jul/10

Being a large man doesn't make you a tall person. Magnus says on 5/Jul/10
I mean, come one, haven't you seen him at the TMF movie awards, in Tropic Thunder or even in The Last Samurai? He is nót a small guy, geesh. He's a big man, short and broad. Magnus says on 5/Jul/10
He's gotta be at least 5 ft 8 inch, and he rather heavily build with big hands and large forearms, broad shoulders and very hairy. He's a big guy, a REAL MAN, you can see that right away. He definetely is no small bloke, as Connolly says. oldsport says on 5/Jul/10
same height as the late Alan Ladd; 5'6" Aleks says on 3/Jul/10
Parker, I've brought evidence on the MJF page to the fact that he's not over 5' 3". Parker says on 3/Jul/10
It's fairly easy to recognise when Tom is wearing lifts, and when he isn't.For instance at the Tropic premier he is not wearing lifts.
Click Here
Standing straight he stands about 5'9 liftless (assuming his wife is 5'9)
Click Here
When he Dons his lifts he gets another 1-2 inches of height.
Click Here
So, using the Tropic pics its clear to see Cruise has a solid 2 inches on Stiller and Jack Black, both listed 5'6.5 and 5'6 respectively on this site.
Click Here
So If Cruise is a flat 5'7, Stiller is no taller than 5'5 which in turn means MJF is no taller than 5'3.

Sorry, I don't buy it. MJF =5'3/5'4, Stiller 5'6, Cruise 5'8. Anonymous says on 2/Jul/10
5'8 is not short ... the problem is that the actors are placed in cinemas as 6'4 Aleks says on 2/Jul/10

SPANISH MAN, WITH ALL DUE RESPECT (NOT THAT ANY IS DUE).. YOU DON'T HAVE A CLUE... Mel Gibson is 5ft10, so is Ewan Mcgregor, Depp is just under.... And trust me, if a celeb is this height most people will judge him a few inches shorter, such is the same with Cruise. Most people don't get this, but it's the truth. victor says on 2/Jul/10

Spanish man, I've heard of every single actor you listed being referred to as short on more than one occassion. Except for Don S Davis, don't know who the hell he is. Spanish man says on 30/Jun/10
I,m going to say only one thing, if Tom Cruise were 1,72m no one said that he is short. There are many actor around that height: Johhny Deep (5,8) Ewan McGregor(5,9) Don S Davis(5,8) Joaquin Phroenix(5,8) Mel Gibson(5,8) antonio Banderas(5,8) and no one think that they are short so Tom Cruise must be 5,6 (1,68m).

I wouldn't go under 5' 6" for him, but not over 5' 7" either. Beccah says on 29/Jun/10

I'd say 5'7.25"/5'7.5" for Cruise.
I respect your opinion Rising but I just can't see him under 5'7.5 at anytime in the day.

He really is a tricky one to pin down....maybe Rob's mid-day listing is spot on. RisingForce says on 27/Jun/10
I saw 2 inches between Diaz in heels and Cruise in lifts. So if she's 6' in those heels then he's 5'10" in lifts meaning he's passing for a 5'9" guy which still tells us nothing without knowing how big the lifts are. I agree with Dural's estimates for Cruise and Holmes. I give Holmes 5'8.5" for now and Cruise a solid 5'7" guy, if we're getting anal with quarter inches then I'd say 5'7.25"/5'7.5" for Cruise. Parker says on 27/Jun/10
Dural says on 26/Jun/10
He's not less than an inch shorter, Parker. That's about an inch or 1.25in if you remove the sandals and Katie could be 5'8" (I think she's 5'8.5" btw.).
Well I think its less than an inch, but I wouldn't argue 1/4 inches with you. An inch max is fine. I do think Katie is a min 5'8.5.

Tom is between 5'7 - 5'8. The reason why tom looks taller (5'9): he is fit, wears custom fitted clothing, and of course lifts/elevators... Kingsley says on 25/Jun/10
In fairness the ladies in Tom's life haven't really helped the media's perception of his height. Over the years he's been snapped with Nicole Kidman, Cameron Diaz, Kelly Mcgillis, Mimi Rogers and of course Katie Holmes, most of whom were wearing considerable heels.
