He's really shit but he showed some flair for action with Free Fire, which was one of the best films I saw last year. He doesn't really understand how to craft films around unpleasant characters and as that's his only trick, he's a bit fucked. At least when they're all shooting at each other you have the satisfaction of seeing them all die. I hated Sightseers intensely.

Whilst I get the hatred for things like A Field In England, I really really enjoyed High Rise.   I loved the visual style, the chaotic and mixed up narrative and the allegorical touches.  It was a good take on a difficult book, and reminded me a lot of early Cronenberg.  Plus Luke Evans is fucking great in it.

Sightseers I enjoyed mainly because it was like a warped version of Nuts In May.

So I take him film by film.  I think he must have touched Gladstone as a child or something, as your hatred of him is visceral  :laugh:

Luke Evans is never great in anything. He was perfect for High-Rise.

Balls. He was great in Beauty and the Beast and Fast & Furious 6 & 8. Overall he’s pretty shit though, but like Colin Farrell, the right role in the right film and he’s good

That's essentially saying the same as putting forth that I make a urinal cake great when I piss on it.
