As most of the performances go he only gets better as the series goes on and he came into his own as being a rather endearing presence as the almost always optimistic sidekick. Not to mention though he really delivers in the more dramatic moments, particularly in the first season where he explains why he had to join the Night's Watch, as well as the entirety of Watcher's on the Wall) <br /><br />Alfie Allen - (Does quite well early on the man you love to hate as he does the sleazy despicable side of the character rather well. Of course Allen carefully gives insight this as well finding the shattered pride of Theon as really his motivation, and a genuine vulnerability in terms of where his family loyalties lie. He's excellent in the second season in the Winterfell scenes as he shows Theon basically falling apart internally as he tries to act like the man he is not. The show though turns the love to hate on its head though as they've successfully made him suffer enough and Alfie is rather heartbreaking in realizing the transformation of the man into such a broken wretch) <br /><br />Isaac Hempstead-Wright - (Bran is not the most emotional character really as he stays pretty cool headed, all things considered, throughout the show. Nevertheless he does do well within the confines of the character making a likable enough hero while delivering in certain scenes rather well, such as when the execution in Winterfell)<br /><br />Daniel Portman - (He's entertaining enough in portraying essentially playing a character defined by earnestness and shyness. When there is a bit of variation to the role he does well there too)<br /><br />Finn Jones - (One of the weakest performances in the film although not in the way one would assume. Technically he does well enough if Loras is meant to be just a vapid pleasure seeker, but the story implies that's not the case. He's all wrong in his scenes with Renly as he plays him like a seductive manipulator rather than honest partner, which certain moments would suggest he was suppose to be)<br /><br />Julian Glover - (Who better to play an untrustworthy man than the guy who uttered "Didn't I tell you not to trust anyone Doctor Jones"? Glover though is quite good at being such a lowly despicable sort here while slyly alluding to the even more devious side to him than he lets on. He just has some great small moments such as when introducing Tyrion in the trial by combat he pauses before he calls him a man)<br /><br />Pedro Pascal - (Fantastic work from him and really his performance is what makes the end of the fight even more disconcerting than it already is. Pascal made Oberyn such a slick and smooth character that he frankly tricks you into thinking that he is indeed invisible. In addition to that though he brings such a powerful passion in his portrayal of his intense desire to find vengeance.)<br /><br />Micheal McCarthy:<br /><br />I liked the film but it's not quite The Hill. Then again The Hill is my favorite Sidney Lumet film. <br /><br />Well Connery's rating could change as both he and Dern are on the border anyways, also I feel Connery's performance here is one I think deserves a second viewing.
