Charles Bronson or Burt Reynolds


Which do you think made better movies?

reply

PRETTY EVEN IN MY ESTIMATION.🤔

Bronson. He actually played real characters. Reynolds' roles were mostly Reynolds playing Reynolds.

BRONSON AND REYNOLDS WERE BOTH DYNAMIC ACTORS WHO SETTLED INTO PLAYING THEMSELVES FOR THE LATTER HALVES OF THAIR CAREERS...VERY SIMILAR CAREER TRAJECTORIES ACTUALLY.

I don’t remember seeing Charles Bronson singing and dancing in a movie with Dolly Parton…

So Burt.

Keeping in mind that movies like The Great Escape and The Dirty Dozen are not "Bronson" movies, pretty close, I'll give it to Reynolds by a small margin. I'm a little biased because I'm a big fan of his Jeopardy! appearances.

Norm!

When SNL was still funny

Bronson all the way. If you dig into his filmography he’s been in some really interesting stuff.

Neither.

Tough. I like Bronson's stone-faced action, and I like Reynolds' cocky, swaggering yet self-effacing comedy. If I could only watch one, Reynolds.

reply

Reynolds, just slightly.
