Leo is fine but not as diverse.

Gary Oldman is amazing. He had one or maybe two scenes in Oppenheimer playing Harry Truman and he was so good. You forget it's him.


British actors are in a league of their own. Leo is similar to Brad Pitt and George Clooney--limited range.


I kept thinking of British actors:
Anthony Hopkins
Kenneth Branagh
Benedict Cumberbatch
David Tennant
Ben Kingsley

On the American side:
Dustin Hoffman!!! (I can’t believe he hasn’t been listed)
Meryl Streep
Tom Hanks
Jodie Foster
Morgan Freeman


This is a great list! I agree that Brad Pitt, Leo and George Clooney are pretty faces with limited talent.


Pitt isn’t the best of the bunch but don’t agree he doesn’t have range. Burn After, 12 Monkeys, Fight Club to name a few are all very different characters.

Love Jack, but he really chews the scenery sometimes


He sucks. He’s a great movie star; not a great actor.

So you think he’s the same in Wolf of Wall Street, Revolutionary Road, Django Unchained, Basketball Diaries, and Shutter Island (to name a few)?

Ok.


Yes. I never get lost in a performance. Very aware that I’m watching Leo at all times when he’s on screen.

Not saying he’s bad. But he’s definitely overrated.

George is very one-note, but he’s very good at that note (Michael Clayton comes to mind).

Similarly, Denzel is always Denzeling, but it’s mesmerizing to watch.

I thought Titanic was one of his worst roles. He's been great in so many others.
