| JayWood2010 said: I can't really say who is the best actor or actress as some actors havecompletely different styles and roles. There for comparing Adam Sandler to Matt Damon would just not work because Adam Sandler excels in Comedy where as Matt Damon is a diverse actor etc. |
I don't know what it is about Angelina Jolie, but just looking at her makes me want to punch an orphan in the face.
For actresses I would have to go with either Natalie Portman, or Jennifer Lawrence. Portman has a better track record, but Lawrence was just incredible in Silver Linings Playbook. A few more performances like that and Lawrence will be my fav for sure.
My favourite actor is tougher to choose because I'm a fan of so many.
Russel Crowe because of Gladiator and L.A. Confidential.
Dicaprio for all of the movies you listed.
Daniel Day-Lewis might be the best villain ever. His Bill The Butcher from Gangs of New York in particular was really great, and his performance in There Will Be Blood was also right up there.
Joaquin Phoenix is good in just about everything he does. His portrayal of the Emperor in Gladiator was top notch.
I guess if I have to choose only one it would be Russel Crowe even though he hasn't done much lately. He had a run from about 1997-2005 where everything he did was great.
