Mel used to be like Tom Cruise. Never made a bad fil...and was never bad in a role.
Just always top-notch, guaranteed great films and performances.
He's still great....but Hollywood never fully let him back in. Ironically, I think Harvey W. played a role in that blacklisting.
Mel needs an opportunity to be awesome again....even as just a bit player, as perhaps a character actor in a great film with a great story. Don't get me wrong....I love him in the action genre...he's still badass. But maybe try a scene-stealing bit role, like Mickey Rourke used to do. And like Sean Connery occasionally did.
Where's Mel's Medicine Man, or Finding Forrester....or Entrapment?
Mel used to be like Tom Cruise. Never made a bad film...and was never bad in a role.
That's true for a while he was in hit after hit and most of them were good! The biggest kick in the guts is that he didn’t direct a film for ten years after Apocalypto, I think it’s in directing where his true talent is. share
Top 3 are pretty easy and pretty obvious.
You can go any way and won't be wrong.
1. Lethal Weapon - Riggs was role and character that made him World Wide famous. And was his best acting job by far.
2. Mad Max - Mad Max was role that mad Gibson Hollywood star.
3. Braveheart - FREEDOM! William Wallace was role that earn Gibson Oscars. His accent was awful and was pretty wrong historically.
You got it right, but wrong order lol.
1) Lethal Weapon
2) Braveheart
3) The Road Warrior
