[MenacingMonk]

Where have you read Daniel Day Lewis is one dimensional receipts

One dimensional in the sense he playes only one role movies: drama.

Umm DiCaprio only does dramas, except Wolf of Wall Street

Those would qualify as dramas

 

[Sunalmighty]

I always envisioned he and Denzel in a intense courtroom drama. Daniel day Lewis was also offered the role John Travolta played in Pulp Fiction. Imagine that

 

[kingdarius]

Those would qualify as dramas

no they wouldnt.....you've CLEARLY never seen the man in the iron mask

5 Reasons Why Method Acting Should Be Laid To Rest

 

[Red]

A lot of people in here saying they've only seen this, never watched all of that, then going on to give their opinion about how DDL is overrated

 

[TrebleMan]

Me personally, dude just doesn't make movies I want to watch. I'm not downplaying his skills, but I'm just not a fan of his movies.

Two of my favorite actors all-time are Denzel Washington and Tom Cruise. For what it's worth I have Arnold in the top 5. Tom Hanks is another actor I enjoy over DDL too.

There's a cat who goes IN about DDL being overrated on reddit (although I don't agree with his critique of Hugh Jackman). It's a little too long to post here though.

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

A true, undiluted madman - still in character to the very end. Stanislavski would be proud.

 

[Tetris v2.0]

I could see how some would say he's overrated with a low output and films that aren't very popular to the general public

My thing is, has he ever played the same role twice? And has he blatantly killed every role?

DDL is a genius and TWBB might be my favorite performance of all time

Only a Thespain GOAT can bow out gracefully, multiple times

 

[QuintessentialMan]

Saw this right after news came down about P's passing. Props to DDL.

What he did in There will be blood may be my second favorite performance by any actor ever.

And your number one is......let me guess... Tim Robbins in Shawshank.

Did i get it

Rep me

nah he shoulda been nominated for movies like he got game, inside man, mo better blues, and devil in a blue dress. He should've WON for movies like malcolm x, glory, the hurricane, and flight.....but you're prolly a cac who needs his actors to have these stage play ass roles where they give long ass monologues while crying, screaming, and sweating in front of the camera.

Crying, screaming and sweating.. Hell naw
