Adam Sandler vs. Tom Cruise


This weekend Adam Sandler's That's My Boy goes to battle with Tom Cruise's Rock of Ages. So I thought it would be fun to run a quick comparison between the two of them. (The movie ratings are an average of the IMDb rating, the RottenTomatoes critics rating, and the RottenTomatoes audience rating.)
