His range?


This actor seems to play the same character in just about every film Ive seen him in. The Hours to Chicago to We Needs to Talk About Kevin - the same slightly slow or unaware, good guy. Has he played anything else? Someone very intelligent? A villain? a ladies man? a president? Give me some films to check out to show that this actor has some sort of range.

He doesn't have much range from what I can tell, but so what? Why should he have? Why should he be obliged to compete with Sam Rockwell or Karen Allen or Tony Shalhoub? Would you also like evidence that he can blow glass or run 800 meters in under 2 minutes? Where will it end?

'Why should he have range?'


Maybe because an audience gets bored very quickly of seeing a performer repeat themselves over and over again.

Watch Magnolia, followed by Step Brothers.
