Ivan looks exactly like Tom Cruise


doesn't he?

The Truth Is Out There.

reply

Yeah, I thought so, particularly the Risky Business era. I wonder if it was intentional or accidental?

reply

Had to be. They had the 80s look down pat, complete with Wayfarers and those silk jackets.

reply

Yeah. I thought his teeth and nose also looked just like Toms, everything about him was the spitting image of Tom Cruise.

He acted pretty over-the-top and ridiculous as Cruise too.

reply

They both looked like Tom with those shades.

Another poster called it better - Cristiano Ronaldo...






Born when she kissed me, died when she left me, lived whilst she loved me

Ha ! More like Justin Beiber .

Tom Cruise? I thought he was trying to channel Ben Affleck.

I love the look the brothers have. The varsity jackets with the Wayfarers, black jeans, black chucks & 2 distinct hair styles (wet & slicked back for Slick, naturally, all spiked up for Ivan) were bad ass when combined with their uber psycho antics. Their gear lent something of a "varsity high school seniors /popular kids turned bullies/greasers (Slick's stiletto/switch blade)" look. The garish white Canadien Bricklin SV-1 (no, it's not a DMC)they drive is perfect.

reply

Yeah, I thought Ivan and Slick were intentionally meant to look like and sort of act like Tom Cruise in Risky Business and of course Christian Bale in American Psycho.

reply

You are absolutely right. When he was beating the Hobo up in the motel kitchen and yelling at him, he even sounded like a young Tom Cruise, perhaps mixed with Seann William Scott's Stiffler. Good call.
