The way Karl holds his gun, the way he strokes his tie, the way he drinks his coffee, the way he delivers his lines,and even the hair. All the nuances of every part of his performance looks like he studied at the Acting School Of Brad Pitt. Anyone agree?
Actually, if I close my eyes in that scene and only that scene, I can put his voice to Anthony LaPaglia from Without a Trace. It must be the 'Down Under' of American accents - if that makes sense.
I don't particularly like American accents. I like the way Urban speaks in interviews...it's warm and easy to understand for someone who does not speak English as a first language. I'd love to hear him speaking some Queen's English...oh so sexy :P

Just watched the movie and the first thing I thought was: Man, Urban behaves like Pitt! The way he pursed his lips, the way he looks at other people and so many other little details. Don't know though whether this was intended. But funny!
OMG..I totally agree..it was the first thing I said when the credits rolled..I think they could play brothers FOR SURE..would be nice to watch both of them on screen together..great eye candy!!
Two different, and great, actors. I favor Urban, but you have to remember Pitt has been in the main stream a LOT longer than Urban. What really irritates me about several of these posts is the implication that Urban is impersonating Pitt. No so at all. They may resemble each other in looks, to a point, but that is it.

I agree. The OP was comparing Karl Urban to Brad Pitt and how Karl Urban was better than Brad Pitt. I know each actor has their own style and Karl Urban is not trying to emulate Brad Pitt.
