Tom Cruise recreates Tom Cruise's entire film career in 9 minutes

If ever you needed a reminder of just how many great films Tom Cruise has been in, surely a condensed recap starring the man himself is the perfect way to do it?

As part of a segment for The Late Late Show, Tom Cruise teams up with James Corden, a blue screen and an army of props in an attempt to recreate almost his entire film career in roughly nine minutes.

Okay, so they don't quite cover all the 40 odd films Cruise is credited for on IMDb, but they certainly get through the majority of the big ones in style (and with a little help well-timed help from Cuba Gooding Jr.).
