Tigerland was *beep* AMAZING. And a lot of it was down to Farrell.

It may be odd, but I think one of his best roles is from the movie, Horrible Bosses.

He was so great in that!

Could it be that it's because he's using his normal accent?

I think it's his best role since...In Bruges.

Yeah...I dont get it. I like movies, but no expert on them or actors........why all the colin f. Hate? I've seen him in various movies...he doesn't SEEM bad at all....can someone explain why so many loathe this guy??? Thanks.

I just think that movie is so terribly plain in every facet, and Pacino and Farrell seem to just be sleepwalking through it. But I do think Farrell is a very good actor who just picks terrible roles sometimes.

Yeah, Pacino was so bad they cut all his scenes. Refilmed the movie with Walken.

As much as I like him, and I really think he a an underrated actor, I agree he was miscasted here. I didn't believe for a minute this guy could actually sit down and write.

reply

That, that statement makes no sense. A lot of writers have hyperactive personalities and nervously switch between walking around and sitting down when they write. I've done it all the time while writing scripts.

Do any of you idiots who can't seem to string a sentence together without cursing, realize that your curse word(s) of choice just get "beeped" out here, thus rendering your "edgy" and "rebellious" expletives neutered?
