Pegg - 4.5(Pegg is always at his best with ...Luke:<br /><br />Pegg - 4.5(Pegg is always at his best with Wright. As with all of Pegg's performances in the trilogy he actually effortlessly creates a dramatic character arc for his character in creating the almost obsessive nature of the man. In addition he manages to bring a certain weight to the "accidents" always showing a very real concern for it all. Most surprising of all though is that Pegg is completely believable as this hard bitten cop. Past all that though he is also hilarious this though for his brilliantly deadpan works which plays so well off the flamboyancy presented by the rest of the cast)<br /><br />Frost- 4(Thoughts have not really changed)<br /><br />Broadbent - 4.5(It's really Broadbent doing his very own rendition of James Cromwell in L.A. Confidential and he does not disappoint. He's enjoyably genial in the early scenes presenting a small town chief with such purity, while cleverly have little moments where he perhaps alludes to Frank's real nature when he tries to dissuade Angel's efforts. Eventually there is the turn where he's really quite chilling in the initial reveal. The rest of his performance as the evil Frank is more overt, but that's fine because he's incredibly funny as well. I particularly love his manner in the face off in the bar)<br /><br />Considine - 4(Thoughts have not changed)<br /><br />Spall - 3(He's good too, but Considine overshadows him in their scenes together)<br /><br />Eldon - 2.5(He's fine but as the cops go he's definitely the least funny)<br /><br />Colman - 3(She rather enjoyable in doing her perpetually horny routine)<br /><br />Johnson - 3(Does the unintelligible bit enjoyably enough)<br /><br />Bailey - 3.5(He's rather funny in playing the two sorts of desk sergeants, although I'll say I particularly enjoy his excessively haggard version)<br /><br />Woodward - 3.5(Another classically intense actor, yet it does not feel like he is treading on Dalton's heels here. Woodward works his way well to portray probably the most impassioned neighborhood watchmen ever.)<br /><br />Paul Freeman - 3.5(All about payoff for him really as he does his honest preacher routine with the right sort of earnestness, making it quite hilarious when he flips on a dime and pulls a Travis Bickle)<br /><br />Nighy - 3(Entertaining cameo to be sure, I always loved his sneer after he says that he can make people disappear because he's the chief inspector)<br /><br />Brosnan - 3(Seraphim Falls unfortunately just does not quite pull off the minimalist story telling it is attempting. Brosnan does well enough as the burned out "hero" constantly on the run. Perhaps he needed more material as I feel his performance is fine, but never becomes anything of note)<br /><br />Neeson - 3(Again seems like he needed a little more. Neeson is good enough as the driven man seeking his very personal revenge, but his character never quite comes to life in the way you'd want him to)<br /><br />Yes I saw True Detective. In just comparing the two premieres it is a major step down from the first season. Cary Fukunaga's direction is sorely missed as the episode lacked the palatable atmosphere from the first season, and in turn makes some of the stylized writing seem much more awkward. None of the storyline really came to life for me here in the least, and it all came off as more than a little disjointed. Hopefully having the characters come together might alleviate that a bit. I'm unsure of all of the performances at this point particularly Colin Farrell who I could not help but feel was desperately trying to ape Matthew McConaughey, and failing rather miserably to do so.)<br /><br />Anonymous:<br /><br />Davis - 4(It's an enjoyable performance as she does rather well in realizing the particular style found in the majority of the supporting players in the film. She does well though in bringing a certain pathos to the part as well and creating a bit of underlying desperation in her character's servitude to her employer/lover)Louis Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07933180959140340196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-77795838926682126592015-06-22T11:12:38.061-04:002015-06-22T11:12:38.061-04:00GM: I imagine, we'll be having a Wiseau week d...GM: I imagine, we'll be having a Wiseau week during the bonus rounds.<br />I'm definitely requesting Kravchenko for '85 Lead, since it might do him a disservice if he was reviewed on the child actors week, that you've suggested, although it is a great idea.Luke Highamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07075392435078135757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-34550351611528037502015-06-22T11:06:05.629-04:002015-06-22T11:06:05.629-04:00I plan to request a child actor performance in the...I plan to request a child actor performance in the future too, it would be great a week with just child actors performances being reviewed.GMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07058868751501120504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-83678641154064699362015-06-22T10:57:28.715-04:002015-06-22T10:57:28.715-04:00*Aleksey or Aleksei, don't know which is which...*Aleksey or Aleksei, don't know which is which.Luke Highamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07075392435078135757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-22244819895831462462015-06-22T10:54:31.092-04:002015-06-22T10:54:31.092-04:00GM: Well Done,=) I plan to request Aleksey Kravche...GM: Well Done,=) I plan to request Aleksey Kravchenko in Come And See on my next win, which should hopefully come tonight or tomorrow.
