Paid Members LaGoosh Posted September 12, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted September 12, 2019 Soderbergh's best work is easily The Knick, a two season medical period drama. He directed every episode and it was genuinely brilliant. I think only like 12 people watched it though. Clive Owen's finest work too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's so bland, he's like a loaf of bread acting. Has he been good in anything? I love Waterworld (fuck off, you're not my real dad), but I can appreciate he's not great in it. From the reviews of the time, I think he got a fair bit of acclaim for Mr. Brooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted September 12, 2019 Moderators Share Posted September 12, 2019 (edited) I think we can all agree how great his accent and performance is in Prince of Thieves. I really liked JFK and didn't think he was bad in it at all. Edited September 12, 2019 by Chest Rockwell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members gmoney Posted September 12, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted September 12, 2019 I'm not sure if that's sarcasm or not, but I genuinely do think he's excellent in Robin Hood. Compelling is probably the word I'm looking for. I love KC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rey_Piste Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Costner has been in some good films, but even though he's the lead actor he is never the best actor. A few off the top of my head. Waterworld: Dennis Hopper Prince of Thieves: Alan Rickman Field of Dreams: James Earl Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 (edited) Mr Brooks was a really decent film. Misses a few beats that stop it being an excellent film but it's well worth a watch. He's alright supporting Connery in The Untouchables as well. Â Edited September 12, 2019 by Mr_Danger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Factotum Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Yeah he's been in good stuff, but he's never been the best thing about it. He reminds me of Weetabix and I'm not sure why. I always put him and Richard Gere in the same category as those kind of blandish early 90s leading men. But Gere at least had charisma in abundance, plus his performance in the remake of Breathless always saves him for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Scott Malbranque Posted September 12, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted September 12, 2019 Gere was incredible in Internal Affairs. That man plays a wonderful villainous cunt. In fairness, I haven't seen the flick in about twenty years, so everything I said there could be up it's own bollocks, but if memory serves, he was delightfully horrible in it.

Mr_Danger Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 I think people are confusing being a likeable everyman for being bland. He's not exactly Tom Hanks but who is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
