Not a lot of actors have that range. He also seems like he does drama and comedy and action all equally well, which again is not that common.

I also loved his joke about you’re sick of my face but you know who isn’t? Your mom. He’s totally right that his target audience is the middle aged mom group.


Actors are usually good on SNL because they are actors, while the cast of SNL are comedians, and the non-actor non comedian guests can't pull off anything except be themselves while the cast works around them.

I think he is handsome but he kind of has “Instagram face”. Too polished and veneer teeth but that might just be a sign of the times.

100%

His target audience is older women who adore him…just like Ryan Gosling.

I loved Hit Man, sad to see others here not into it. Powell has a lot of range but I tend to disagree with people's actor/actress assessments here (I prefer older Pitt, never liked Reynolds). His face looks normal to me but I do get that feeling when you find someone really odd, I get that when I see the preview of that new Chalamet ping pong movie.

How do you define “movie star”? Is it someone whose movies I want to see? Because if that’s the definition, no, he isn’t a movie star.

So... he's just kind of fine, I guess?


OMG - your (B) is perfect. He is so forgettable.
And whoever said he has a movie star name....GLEN?

I find him so bland! I can never even picture him in my head. I thought Twisters was a pretty decent movie, but he didn't even stand out to me there.

I mean, Ryan Gosling has gotten a lot further than I would have expected and the two actors are fairly similar, right?


Gosling is funny and charming though.

He looks okay from the neck down, but his face is weird and he has beady little eyes.

+1 I can't get past not liking his looks. And I find him bland, not charming or charismatic at all.
