A lot of his characters are larger than life, especially Butcher in The Boys, whenever he shows up in a film or series you know he’s always going to give it his all despite the quality of the script, plus he has great range.
Definitely, the guy has so much range as well, look at him from Star Trek to Dredd to Almost Human to The Boys, guy absolutely nails every role he does and they’re always wildly different, great actor
That Locke’s dad was the conman “Sawyer” that Sawyer was looking for, about halfway through season 2 I thought that would be a cool twist and they excecuted it even better
He was great in Tombstone too, always played a great bad guy, had that manic energy which always made him watchable
They definitely made him more petty and unlikable in the Xmas specials, in the second series he seems like the kind of boss Brent secretly craves to be, well liked by the staff, handsome, athletic etc.
Hopefully none so the vile creature disappears into obscurity and drug addiction, it was never a good actress anyway, almost ruined Inception
I actually agree, he does bring the same demeanour to his roles, Peaky Blinders, Mad Max, Taboo, The Revenant and Lawless are all essentially the same character in mannerisms and speech patterns, he also just stares into space and doesn’t even deliver his lines to his co-stars.
I actually don’t mind Tom Hardy but people who lap up every role he does as an acting “masterclass” really need to broaden their horizons.
He seems to be mentioned alongside Gary Oldman quite a lot, but Oldman has insane range whereas Hardy doesn’t, a closer comparison to Oldman is someone like Stephen Graham who has 100x more range than Hardy does, so does James Mcavoy as well.
Tom Hardy doing his usual shtick of staring into space and not even looking at other actors when delivering his lines in another weird accent no one on the planet sounds like.
I’m sure his fanboys will lap it up as a “masterclass” in acting though
I could also definitely see Dougray playing a good Sabretooth as well
Looks like your wish has been granted as a tv series sequel is coming to BBC later this year, I wonder if each episode will be shot in one take
Who cares what some sad loser who blew his own head off thinks 🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Disagree, I was surprised just how good he was in this, shame he didn’t pick other interesting roles like this instead of just doing fast and furious over and over because the guy definitely had talent in the right role
Keanu was really good in The Gift as the wife beating redneck, I didn’t know he had that in him
He’d done Conan the Barbarian before that which was also perfect casting
Another one I’d mention is Paul Walker in Running Scared
The home alone dad is amazing in it, I can’t believe he never got no great meaty roles after that, Jeff Bridges has had an amazing career whereas the man who blew him off the screen in That film went on to ditch Macauley culkin in two films
Temuera Morrison - Once Were Warriors
John Heard - Cutter’s Way
Whilst these two are by no means bad actors they’ve never come close to the potential they showed in those two performances
I thought it was pretty obvious from the minute he didn’t tell the cops about the message he got after the murder and then I could tell it was him even with him in a wig, sunglasses and make up
Oscar for what? She’s in the film for half an hour, hardly does anything other than been nice to look at and then gets killed.
Looked like Ellen Barkin I thought, just not as rough around the edges, not a knock on either woman, both were attractive as hell
