DonS 3,292 Posted May 29, 2024 Robert Pattinson Never saw the Twilight movies (since I'm not a teenage girl) but I knew he gained fame as the pretty boy vampire so I never took him seriously. My opinion has 100% changed now that I'm finally watching "The Lighthouse". He's doing a great job. What actors/actresses ended up impressing you after you initially wrote them off? Edit: Thanks to Worms for pointing out I got his damn name wrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerryskids 6,797 Posted May 29, 2024 Jason Bateman. I knew his sister Justine from Family Ties (may have rubbed out one or a bunch of times to her), and figured he was just glomming onto the name. But after Arrested Development and Ozark... big fan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SUXBNME 1,499 Posted May 29, 2024 Ryan Gosling His character in "The Gray Man" was spot on to the book and did a fukkin incredible job making me believe he was Sierra Six. Plus, he's kinda buff and stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good one. I couldn't stand him until Ozark came out. I almost didn't watch Ozark because of him. Glad I was wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's one of those actors that I pretty much like in everything. Agreed on Mallory(?) Keaton btw 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bier Meister 1,710 Posted May 29, 2024 Val Kilmer While i liked many movies he was in, i thought he was rather cheesy. After watching Val I have a new respect for him and his craft. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IGotWorms 4,058 Posted May 29, 2024 I was going to say Pattinson too. He was great in The Lighthouse and Good Time. Feel like I’ve seen him shine in some other stuff too. He is as good at acting as Kristen Stewart is bad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is as good at acting as Kristen Stewart is bad Yeah I saw Good Time before The Lighthouse, that's when I realized he was a pretty good actor. The Devil All The Time isn't a great flick, it's ok, but he's pretty good in that too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zsasz 369 Posted May 29, 2024 Another one for Pattinson. The Lighthouse, Rover, Good Time, The Devil All The Time, I like him in The Batman. Seems kind of like Johnny Depp; a pretty boy who could have gotten any heart throb role he wanted; but instead decided to projects that interested him.
