Because a 6.1 rating on IMDB has nothing to do with the level of Cillian's performance.Vader182 wrote:Okay, let's just do away with that smiley completely. Why? Because people are going to ask you why you posted that (usually), then you'll need to tell them. Sigh.
So why did I get the smiley?

Shame (2011)
It can. The rating implies the film's overall quality, so while it's of course possible to have an amazing performance in it, it's unlikely.

Cillian's role in Peacock was the best role he has ever taken. Stop making assumptions because I am sure you have not seen the film.Vader182 wrote:...Right. Regardless, a ton of great actors really need to pick better roles.allstarr55js wrote:

Dude, regardless of how good or bad he is, it's a random movie with no marketing or buzz around it, two reviews on RT, and a crazy low rating on RT. I mean bigger, better roles in films with a great creative team that'll be remembered and loved.allstarr55js wrote:Cillian's role in Peacock was the best role he has ever taken.

I just mean there are loads of actors out there I love very much who seem to not be particularly concerned with having a 'good' career.

Ok so... back to Shame and Fassbender.
WOW... Cillian has been in loads of great and remembered films... for me anyway. You do not make any sense sometimes.Vader182 wrote: Dude, regardless of how good or bad he is, it's a random movie with no marketing or buzz around it, two reviews on RT, and a crazy low rating on RT.

You can't have 'great and remembered' films 'for you' that doesn't make sense. He's lovely in BB/Inception/28 Days Later/Sunshine but outside of those he hasn't seemed to make too many great decisions. I guess we'll see with In Time. I just think of actors of his caliber, and think I'll see a string of amazing performances in great movies, and that's not what I see with him.allstarr55js wrote:WOW...

IMHO, I don't think Cillian Murphy has had a bad performance yet. He's pure gold in every frakking movie - and that's insane.
