Brad's performance was the 'Pitt's' (geddit?)


This has to be the most annoying and awful performance by Pitt. Don't get me wrong - I'm not a great fan anyway, but this performance made me cringe several times.

Pitt seems to have a couple of character's whom he uses for various movies: the straight, no personality "Keanu Reeves" type character of Interview With A Vampire and Meet Joe Black. And this surfer bum character (also seen in a lesser role in True Romance), however in True Romance the bumbling incompetence of the character can mostly be related to his maruijuana use.
The character he uses is neither funny or beleivable... it's like someone acting drunk, badly.

For those who will tell me that the whole movie is trash I agree (though Gandolfini is still great), but Pitt's crappy acting is the icing on the cake.

Brad Pitt should have won a Razzie for the Mexican, one of the worst preformaces i've ever seen. I really enjoyed B.P. in Jesse James but come on, the dog out acted him in this film
