For example, I don't like Will Ferrell in his typical roles. Oh they just drive me batty.

But. I do love Stranger Than Fiction. It's such a cozy movie.

Jared Leto. All his best roles are the ones that could have been better, if they were played by someone else.

I hate him, too, but he was good in Blade Runner 2049. I mean, the role should have come naturally since he was playing a narcissistic sociopath.

[–] BurgerBaron@piefed.social 7 points 7 hours ago

He was just playing himself yeah.

[–] kelpie_returns@lemmy.world 10 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago) (1 children)

Agreed, but it's kinda fun seeing him get walloped in Fight Club tho

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 8 points 7 hours ago

That is true. Good call.

Requiem for a Dream, though.

See he is the opposite for me. He always seems well cast and he can act. I just dislike him as a person.

Like Mark Wahlberg, I like him IN things I've just never seen him in an interview or casual thing where I didnt think "I believe that IRL he is an asshole"

[–] GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca 6 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago) (2 children)

Is there a movie where he (Wahlberg) doesn't play "Jersey boy who made good"? I feel like it's always the same character with a different job facing a different crisis.

That new one where he plays a pilot/hitman looks interesting. I havent seen it yet but it is a departure from type.

[–] salacious_coaster@infosec.pub 1 points 6 hours ago

I dunno. He was pretty good in Lord of War.
