Better actor: Will Smith or Samuel Jackson

[R=G]

You couldn't pay to watch a Will Smith movie in the last 14 years. Sam Jackson easily.

 

[FaTaL]

one of my favorite actors. hes underrated.

 

[JackRoss]

That doesnt tell you shyt ... go see it

Is that the one where him and the Mexican dude are playing Russian Roulette and Sam L loses???? Was the Mexican dude act all tough and shyt wanting to take his turn and end up blowing his own brains out??? I remember in the beginning Sam L transferred from another school after getting stabbed by a student..... The rest of the movie was pretty basic and a blur.... Ain't seen that shyt in a minute

thats it... in the beginning he got stabbed up fierce... that explains his characters entire psycholgical thought process... that a ill back story because it explains how and why he would take the bullet annd not give a fukk...

So just saying he dies in the end doesnt explain a thing

[Lo-Co]

Never seen it

good movie

This was a good film. Weird because of the glitz and clamor I'd say Will, but Samuel has films on deck too. I really can't call it, I had just seen him in Juice the other day ago and was feeling his role.

 

[Strapped]

Samuel is a funny dude but I'll give the nod to wil

 

[FakeNews]

Yeah basically, he just had a light saber that time .

Will smith lets you know he's acting if that makes sense. I can always tell he's playing a role.

Samuel L Jackson is more natural so I would say him.

I wouldn't take anything from Will at this point in his career because he definitely has stepped out of that "Summer Box Office hit" act of doing only action movies and stepped into the rubicon of more complex roles around the late 2000s. I gained ALOT of respect for him in his parts in Ali, POH, Seven Pounds and Concussion...he's definitely expanded his skill set.

I don't know though...something about Samuel L...dude is defintely the hardest working actor in the biz, and he's more diverse than people give him credit for. His performance in Pulp Fiction is Epic...someone pointed out 187...another great, forgotten one. Plus he his part as Mace Windu and Nick FUry has solidified him.

I don't know though...I gotta go with Samuel....all things mentioned, sometimes I think back to his roles as Gator in Jungle Fever or as the robber in Coming TO America, or as them dudes in the fast food joint in School Daze and I can legit say that ,man has come a long way.


So I don't know if I would call one "better" than the other because they both stepped out of their comfort zones and did it well. But I gotta say, I just respect Samuel L more.

I was thinking the same thing but vice versa
