His role in Batman Begins was perfect for him.

I also say Cillian is the Mads Mikkelsen of Irish Cinema. I would have said recently that the best films to see his acting at his very best would be his non Hollywood films but Oppenheimer at last gave him a role to show his top notch acting ability on a bigger stage.

I do a top 3 best roles and top 3 underrated ones for people to go out and check his work out

1. Peaky Blinders (yep it's a TV show. But there's a reason why it's so popular, and it's Cillian's performance)
2. Oppenheimer (should be getting a Best Actor Oscar Nod for this performance. Even winning it)
3. The Wind that Shakes the Barley (great film and great performance from Cillian)

Underrated

1. Breakfast on Pluto (great performance as a transgender Woman Kitty, in Neil Jordan's underrated gem of a film)
2. Disco Pigs (the role that put him on the map, excellent performance from Cillian and a must watch for any fan of his)
3. On The Edge (another early Irish film role, I love this film but barely anyone has seen it. Cillian is great in it)

I haven't seen many of his movies, but I love him as an actor, so my takes probably aren't very good.

1. The Way We Live Now
2. Batman
3. In The Heart Of The Sea
