Alan Rickman Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 The violence in the revenant scratched an inch deep down in my soul. I dunno if I'd necessarily watch it again but it was alright. That opening attack scene was pretty swell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A guy like Brad Pitt is an after thought to Leo, yet I've never seen Leo do something like Fight Club where you won't have a good movie without him and where the character comes off the screen. Think of his catalogue. He's done roles from 12 Monkeys to River Runs Through It to Inglorious Basterds to Jesse James yet he's just a 'good looking guy' and Leo is the 'legendary actor'. Bull. I don't really see how being quite alright with him as an actor puts down Brad Pitt in any way. Brad Pitt is also pretty damn good, but I've also seen him in some total rubbish too. neither are my favourites by any stretch, they're both pretty good.

Nasa Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 So more generally then, who do you guys think is an overrated actor / actress? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghent Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 Leo is the man. Overrated actor: Johnny Depp 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Backing Track Posted June 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 Silver Lining Playbook she was decent, everything else she's pretty cringe. She more bothers me off screen with the "omg I'm so humble!" stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nasa Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 She was pretty good in the Hunger Games series. Haven’t seen her in anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Kyle_ Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 Mother! was fairly good. I don't mind her, but she does get miscast a lot imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 She can actually be bloody good, it's heavily dependent on the film. I like her quite a bit but I won't see something just because she's in it. I think Christian Bale is massively overrated, as is Idris Elba. I don't dislike Idris I just think he's not quite as fantastic as people make him out to be. Johnny Depp for sure, the most obvious one trick pony. Chris Pratt also mostly plays the same dude these days. I've never understood Affleck's draw either. Gosling is also massively overrated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idris Elba became a huge favorite out of nowhere, I guess he's okay...but people begging for him to play James Bond drive me nuts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nasa Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 People freak out about Chris Pratt and I don’t know why. Mostly for his looks? Never seen him act but I don’t think he’s super attractive. And Ryan Gosling sucked balls in La La Land!!! I’m seething just thinking about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghent Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 I turned on La La Land one night and I literally made it about 2 minutes and then watched something else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nasa Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 It’s really overrated but I like it. I wish they picked actual people from musical theatre to be the leads, though. If it’s a movie with a centrally musical theme, then pick actors who can get with it. Ryan Gosling can’t sing for shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's pretty overrated in my opinion, but I'd say she's got nothing on how bad Daisy Ridley is as an actor, if the timecode is correct (from about 0:55-2:15), this video illustrates just why I hate her "acting" so much (at least in what I've seen her in thus far, which is only Star Wars): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love La La Land but it's definitely flawed, however I'm pretty sure they chose non-amazing singers on purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
