the shit parcel are stamped and on their way. do not get me wrong he has preoduced some excellent performances but for me he will always be best suited to playing serious roles or something just off centre. i always feel he lacks the charisma for the sort of action roles he clearly enjoys playing. leaving las vegas,23 mm,raising arizona are all excellent and he nails the performances in these sort of films but when it comes to playing a gun totting psycho (face off) a professional car their(gone in 60 seconds) or a laughable convict(con air) he just fails to convince me that he has the rawness required to pull of the character.
not seen it but i expect it is the type of role he is best suited to
The Rock was pretty good, Con Air was decent, The Lord of War was fantastic but....he was best in Captain Corelli's Mandolin. I love that movie.
Seriously.
Seriously.
See now why couldn't you have said that instead of "he sucks" and "I will never take anything you say seriously ever again". :faq2:
Fair enough, you have a point. Personally Leaving Las Vegas (favorite movie of a friend of mine back in junior high) bored me to tears. 23mm I presume you mean 8mm? That one was just disturbing but yes Nicky was quite good.
Face Off was just comical in several different ways. That scene where the bald bad guy repeats "face off" with that hand gesture like it's some artistic expression is fantastic. Still, I quite liked parts of it. The scene where Travis turns up in jail dazzled me.
Con Air I loved actually. I agree he is rather comical. Thought Malkovich was great in that one. As for The Rock it's a personal favorite going way back, also because the score is an absolute killer.
Gone in 60 was pretty lame, yeah
