Warrior wrecked me. The final fight between the brothers is one of the most emotional sports scenes ever

A. MacDonald

The Revenant should be higher, he deserved that nomination

Luke Burton

Legend is worth it just to see him play both Kray twins, you forget it's the same actor

Mia Thompson

Tinker Tailor is all Oldman but Hardy's part is great

boxoffice_atlanta

Fury Road deserves the top spot even though he barely talks in it lol

foodie_lazy

Bronson is the role that made me pay attention to him, completely unhinged performance

reelfan_nyc

Stuart: A Life Backwards should be on here, one of his best performances and nobody has seen it

Daniel White

Locke is the most underrated one here. A whole movie of a guy driving and on the phone and it's gripping

heather_gg

The Drop is such a quiet little film, and Gandolfini's last role too
