Favorite Performance?


For me, it's Leonard Shelby from Memento.

reply

I thought he was hilarious in Lockout. He's been in way better movies but he was funny in this with a lot of witty lines.

reply

YES!...WHEN I READ THE OP'S QUESTION...LOCKOUT IS THE FIRST THING THAT CAME TO MIND...ITS A GOOD MOVIE FEATURING A BRILLIANT SCENERY CHEWING,WISE-CRACKING PERFORMANCE BY MR.PEARCE.

I laughed out loud at the end when he finally gets the girl and she says something like, "I just want to go make love," and he says, "Well, that won't take long" and pretty much it ended.

I know that's not the correct quote, but it was something like that, and I thought it was unexpected.

reply

I just posted the same thing to you below. LOL.

I tried looking up the quote before posting but couldn't find it.

reply

Right!

You got the quote much closer.

I enjoyed him making fun of himself at that moment.

reply

but I prefer Snow.

I can't call you that. It sounds like an ice cream. Speaking of which, I believe you owe me one.

You know, I've got this feeling your old man's not going to approve of this. I mean, I can't really see this going anywhere, can you?

Depends on how good you are in bed.


Well, in that case, I give it at least 10 minutes.

Thanks.
I love that ending.

The movie was fun and didn't take itself too serious.

Sure I loved LA Confidential, Memento and The Count of Monte Cristo and thought he was great in all them roles, yet this is some good shit that I loved watching.

reply

i loved his ending quote to maggie as their walking away from camera Casablanca style.
he asks her on a date i believe or how long the relationship will last, she says it'll depend on how good he is in bed.
I think his response was "Well in that case, I'll give it a few minutes."
and she laughs.
I'm sure I messed that up terribly, yet it was something to that effect.
I really like the two of them together in the movie.
