Leo gets more attention than he deserves due to his sex appeal with women and Scorseses undying devotion.
He's better than the overrated Depp, but not better than the mentioned three.
Joaquin Phoenix before Leo? Are you high?
Phoenix is a very good actor but he's highly unlikeable. [Reply]
Their endgame scam was pretty predictable though. I was hoping they were scamming the Feds earlier. When she was refusing to sleep with him and such I thought they were scamming them, so I was kind of disappointed that their final escape scam was so heavily telegraphed. Still just excellent acting and directing. Music and costuming were both amazing.

Matthew MccConaughey's a guy who's been knocking it out of the park recently. He's gone from some kinda beefcake rom-com guy to an actor that should be mentioned among the best. "Mud", "Dallas Buyers Club" "True Detective", etc.
I've heard it termed : "The McConnissance" [Reply]

McConaughey and Bale are the best actors in the world right now. I don't see anyone who's even close. [Reply]
