He's been a lot of movies, most of them pretty damned good (I'll except This Means War, but that was mainly Reese Witherspoon. She was atrocious. Tom Hardy and Chris Pine were pretty good, in a mediocre movie. Would have worked better as a 'bromance', if they left her out.)

Bronson, Warrior (I didn't know anything about MMA before that one), Masterpiece Theater's Wuthering Heights, Locke (criminally left out of the Oscar nom for that one), The Drop, Rock a Rolla (one of my favorites), Tinker, Tailor Soldier Spy... so many good ones. All kidding aside, he's good looking, but he's also a really good actor; absolutely unafraid to tackle any part, wholeheartedly.
Have you seen him in The Man With The Golden Arm? That one will let you know that he really could act
That one didn't come to theaters here. I need to look for it on VUDU, or maybe it will hit Netflix soon
I'm looking forward to The Revenant and Legend (about the Kray brothers).
Casino Royale; the recent one. I'll have to watch it again in order to hopefully understand why people keep making pointless "James Bond" movies.
To my chagrin, I haven't seen Golden Arm. I've seen Sinatra in Manchurian Candidate, Ocean's Eleven, Guys and Dolls, which I love, and A Hole in the Head. I saw Hole as a kid with my parents who used to take me to the movies with them. I didn't like it, partly because Sinatra slapped the redheaded kid.Have you seen him in The Man With The Golden Arm?

Not sure--lol. He and Noomi Rapace are both very, very good in that one, as is James Gandolfini. One of my favorite moves of last year.
I love The Krays -- it was on Netflix.That one didn't come to theaters here. I need to look for it on VUDU, or maybe it will hit Netflix soon
He's good in From Here To Eternity, too. I think his 'give it all you've got' movie was Golden Arm, though.

That one was good! The trailer I've seen for Legend is pretty spectacular, too. I'm REALLY hoping that it comes here. Freaking Utah doesn't always get Brit movies, though. Do you have Hulu, DJ?
Okay then! There's a British detective series that I think you'd LOVE. It's called Whitechapel. The first season deals with a modern day Jack The Ripper, but the second season was about the Krays, and the guy who plays them (sort of) is freaking amazing. I seriously thought it was twins playing the parts, he did the characters that differently. The third season was a mix of a couple of different cases (one dealing with London After Midnight was completely creepy!) Hulu never got the fourth and last season (damn it), but I've watched the first three at least three times apiece. And now I want to go start them again--lol. The cop characters are wonderful.

Ohhhh, thanks for the recommend. I will definitely check that out!
Oh, and speaking of The Drop: if you watch it, keep an eye out for Noomi Rapace's ex boyfriend in the movie. His name is Matthias Schoenaerts, and he's a damned good actor, too. If you ever get a chance (and if you don't mind subtitles), watch him in Bullhead and Rust & Bone. Bullhead has one part that is INCREDIBLY difficult to watch (in fact, I didn't. I couldn't. Closed my eyes and plugged my ears), and Rust & Bone had me ugly crying in one part, but both are absolutely wonderful movies. He's definitely an actor to watch to break into American films in a bigger way soon.
Billy Elliot - teary but funny as f@@k!

I looooooove Billy Elliot!
And yes, I try those moves... so not pretty!
Showed Carrie (2013) and 7500 to my boyfriend. I guess Carrie is not really a kind of movie he could like, but it was okay, he watched it with me till the end. As for 7500, we both liked it very much, very good movie.
I pictured you more as the chain smoking Julie Walters
