Anyone else not like his acting style?

His acting style is very Shakespearean. I haven't read his bio so I may or may not be wrong on this; but he seems to be classically trained in theater / Shakespeare by his mannerisms, speaking style, refinement, etc.

Which is not to say that's a bad thing for the theater. He's solid for sure. But in movies, there's something about his acting that just seems too...theatrical. Like it lacks the informal, naturalism reminiscent of Marlon Brando or method acting.

Again, not saying it's a bad thing or he's a bad actor. But when he plays his roles you can easily see through the Shakespearean bearing. And not all of his roles really need that sense of classical theatrics.
