- troupo 3y agoChris Pratt is okay. Joel Kinnaman on the other hand. Why is he repeatedly cast in leading roles?
- coremoff 3y agoI think Joel Kinnamen is fine in the roles he's cast in - maybe he doesn't have much range (I'm not saying he hasn't got range, just that I've not seen him in anything other than things like Altered Carbon or The Suicide Squad); I think Chris Pratt is exactly the same. Joel does stoic tough guys with a dead-pan sense of humor extremely well and doesn't stand out as miscast in the things I see him in.
- happymellon 3y agoChris Pratt is fine doing what he does best, playing Chris Pratt in a variety of different scenarios. In terms of acting, where you adopt someone else's persona, he makes Sylvester Stallone look diverse.
- DharmaPolice 3y agoIsn't this what they used to say about Clint Eastwood - that he's playing himself in most movies?
- AlexandrB 3y agoDon't forget Bruce Willis. There's definitely a place for these kinds of actors. I think Chris Pratt is fine for that niche.
- humanrebar 3y agoThat's not new at all. The amount of acting in any Rat Pack movie is about zero. A lot of classic black and white comedies and musicals are just actors doing vaudeville or Broadway schtick with a camera running. It can still be fun and enjoyable, but it's not Acting.
