No disrespect. But..Huh?!! ''He use to be..'' ???

I haven't seen the movie ...But you mean to tell me every day you go to work, you do a 100% top job??? Never make a bad choice?? Good on ya if you do!

Jeff Bridges IS a great actor. Look at his back catalouge....You'll always get the odd cracked egg in a basket full of good ones.

Someone once told me this guy Marlon Brando is supposed to be a 'good actor'. Did he make any stinkers..? Hmmm...now let me see.

I'll take a look out for the movie and reserve my judgment. Untill then ...i'll ask you cut the dude some slack.

I believe he was acting like a strung out, neglectful, heroin addict. Seems to me his performance was spot on. This movie wasn't supposed to be a vehicle for Bridges. It is a tale of a brief period in the life of a neglected child. I think all the 'haters' are missing the point of this movie.

I think he was awesome! A very important character in the movie.

I thought it took an actor (who is awesome) with guts (or without as the film may show) to take this role, even as a corpse his presence is felt based on his disturbed relationship with his daughter.
