Oh that's simply not true, Mr. Glass Half Empty.Markgway wrote:There aren't many actors today who are charismatic. That's just the way it is.
Johnny Depp
John Travolta
Chow Yun Fat
just to name the first ones that pop into my head.

Travolta isnt exactly someone I think of when the word 'charismatic' is uttered. Then again, he also isnt really someone I think of when the word 'actor' is uttered. I despise the guy. Cant stand him. Horrible actor, and according to some a bit of a dickhead in real life as well...
(western) Actors I find charismatic are Jude Law, Depp, Ray Liotta, Ryan Reynolds, Jim Carrey, and a whole bunch of others...
I dont like Collin Farrel that much either, but then again that opion is based mostly on the stuff I've read about him, instead of the movie's he's been in, cause i've not seen many of his movies. But he hasnt been getting outstanding reviews, has he? There's a lot of hype around the guy, but it's mostly because of his bad boy rep.

I'm actually with Bobbi on this one. He has played some great roles, not least his Troy/Archer roles in Face/Off and Vic Deakins in Broken Arrow. But his Chili Palmer in Get Shorty is excellent too, and obviously his '70s roles as well.Yi-Long wrote:Travolta isnt exactly someone I think of when the word 'charismatic' is uttered.

And I'm with Mark on this one: Ryan fucking Reynolds?! Now, if you'd said Nathan Fillion (who's in the same show) I could've understood it, cos he's got a very Harrison Ford vibe about him... but Reynolds?Yi-Long wrote:(western) Actors I find charismatic are Jude Law, Depp, Ray Liotta, Ryan Reynolds, Jim Carrey, and a whole bunch of others...
Couple of dodgy ones on LD's list there (Sly?!) but can't argue with most of 'em.

I didnt like both Broken Arrow and Face Off. he was way over the top and over-acting in both...Kurgan wrote:I'm actually with Bobbi on this one.

He was cool as Chilli Palmer, but that's mainly because Chilli is a well written 2-dimensional comicbook character that's larger then life. Travolta's over-acting actually worked for that part, but at the same time the role isnt stretching any acting-muscles, issit?
Reynolds just stole that show. he was magnificent in it and drop dead funny. he has a perfect delivery and comic timing, as well as the cheek and charisma to pull of certain looks and jokes. he has great facial expression which are still natural.And I'm with Mark on this one: Ryan fucking Reynolds?!

Like I said, it's a shame he's picked his movie projects so badly as he's a gifted performer.
