That's the main reason he landed Thor! Those brief minutes were heroic enough to earn him some recognition.

Also, my favorite Sammy L performance is still Unbreakable.

Other than that, this piece was a good read.

Her performance in that film was better than the one she gave in "Lost in Translation". It's a very near-silent but truly entrancing performance.

Just thought you guys should know.

classy.

"while there isn't an obvious visual resemblance"
there kinda is…that's what made the movie watching experience so magical because RDJ looked so close to him.

His character's sacrifice was emotional well-done, setting up the entire film. While he was good as Thor, I long to see him match that in terms of acting.

Yes, Chris Evans is very charismatic and talented, but he needs to do more challenging roles.
