Val Kilmer ruined doc for anybody else
Jack easy
I still can’t believe Leon is gary
I’d go braveheart and liotta

Nicely said.

 

[ricc505]

This list has some of the movies I've enjoyed the most over my life. I tried to differentiate between actors and the movies as a whole.

I think Guy Pierce was great in memento but that movie doesn't have as high a replay value. And I haven't seen that Romeo and Juliet since high school! Good butthole surfers song on the soundtrack if memory serves

 

[SmoothPies]

In terms of strictly acting performance, I think Paul Dano in There Will Be Blood wins this list

 

[I Am Legion]

Mel in Braveheart is still a GOAT performance. FREEDOM!!!

 

[Sweater of AV]

Malcolm McDowell
Anthony Perkins
Ray Liotta
Jack Nicholson
Jimmy Stewart

 

[tank666]

So many good performances crazy Ray Liotta wasn't nominated.

Yeah it's pretty insane.

He's not. He's this guy

ah yes. Worked form memory and I thought Leon was the French guy From Godzilla. Glad I’m not crazy. Thanks for refreshing me. Handful of grenades on his way out. Epic

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

Bump for more votes.

 

[Kardashians]

Al pocketchino is too short. Rightfully shunned for it.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

LOL at Al Pacino in scarface. It was complete dogshit.

Love the movie tho but his acting is too over the top.

 

[Blonde Oliveira]

I would've put Eli Wallach ahead of LVC, but that's just me.
