Better casting options


Just watched the movie and I liked it (probably better than the first really)

Couldnt think of how much better it wouldve had been with Kevin Costner instead of Hawke, Kurt Russell in D'Onofrio's spot and Bill Paxton as the bad guy instead of PS

reply

Paxton could have been a better bad guy. I think the others worked very well. D'Onofrio felt out of place, but at the end, seemed to work. Costner would have sucked. Hawke played a perfect PTSD dude.

Watching the film, I couldn't escape the feeling that they would have preferred Jennifer Lawrence for the female lead. The hair and make-up even seemed to accentuate it.

reply

Agreed.

I don't know, I wasn't super crazy about the movie, but thought it was really well cast. Though those guys you mentioned probably would have done well.
