Tom Cruise was also really good in Jack Reacher. He's given some really good performances over the years, and age suits him well.
Too bad he's a freaking nutcase in real life...

You are a man of taste and quality my friend. ;D Goes to show just how underappreciated Jack Lemmon was as an actor, I can't think of too many that were close to being as versatile as he was, a true great. The Machine! ;D Indeed! Well said. I was in NYC over Thanksgiving and saw that Pacino was playing Lemon's role in the play (did not get to go, with great regret). Not sure how that went over. ;D I'm still kicking myself. I KNEW I would.

Yeah, he's batshit crazy but he's a very good actor. He was great in Magnolia too... I thought he was great in Born on the 4th, Magnolia, Collateral and Vanilla Sky to name a few.

I couldn't read the books, I turned part gay just reading parts of it. I fear I may suddenly crave the cock if I read Anne rice's novels

Well all of her characters are Bi sexual anyway, but I dont read them for that I enjoy the stories, All of her male vampires have a "bro-mance" thing going on but Lestat he WAS a bisexual. He was with a guy that played the violin (which he wrote book about a haunted violin and its REALLY bad stay away from it it makes no damn sense! but I digress) Lestat later made him a vampire and the guy, whos name was Nicholas, went insane the other vampires in the coven had to cut of his hands then he went into the sun and killed himself, I dont recall why he went crazy or why they had to cut off his hands but there you have it

Motherfucker! I had no idea that Exit to Eden was her! The movie is brilliant (fuck you LED!) and I know the book must be as well.

Well the movie ruined the book they turned the movie into a comedy and it was not as a book, the book is about a man falling for a woman at a sex club - and how they end up together, altho there is ALOT of sex in it - Anne actually hates the movie and wish's it was never made as they just used her book title but not the book itself

I thought he was great here: That was a great movie, but aside from that and the last two Mission Impossible films, what else has he done worth mentioning? The guy couldn't act his way out of a shoe box if he tried.

Did you read the books? if so you would understand why they went that route No, didn't read the books, like Cd said, too...much...gay. ;D But still, it's just awful hair and makeup. Antonio Banderas as well. ;D Lestat was the child of a french Lord that was barely hanging on they lived in a castle and had no money, often times they went hungry, and back in those days they had no idea of condoms so he prob did have HIV or something, as for the character of Armand he looks nothing like he should have (going by the books) that is how Armand should have looked in the movie

That was a great movie, but aside from that (Collateral) and the last two Mission Impossible films, what else has he done worth mentioning? Jack Reacher. The Color Of Money. A Few Good Men. Taps. Interview With The Vampire. Minority Report. The Last Samurai. Valkyrie. Those are all quality movies with good performances from Cruise. He's still a total nutjob, but he is a solid actor nonetheless.

Just watched X-men First Class for the first time and I have to say..
Fassbender did a great job as a young Magneto.
