Jonah Hill was great in the movie , his best performance so far. Movies like this is what he is best suited for where he both can show his comedy and drama-skills.

shareAgreed! I like seeing actors like himself get given new territory and open space for them to showcase what they're capable of.
shareLove Love LOVE this Jonah Hill creature! He deserved the Oscar for Moneyball and the same in "Wolf" with Leo! He has proven his acting abilities in supporting roles. Quick thinking Jonah is a hidden gem who has the ability to entertain audiences of all genres. He is a force who has been overlooked. Although he is still an up and coming rising star, he is almost within his own category which should not be unnoticed.
He is the man's man; as they say of Clooney.
Okay I wouldn't go that far. I'd say his current nom for WOWS is reasonable; he did a good job. However that doesn't necessarily mean I think his supporting performance was the best of the year.
His nom for Moneyball was stupid. That was an example of the Academy being impressed by the fact that he was so toned down from his usual clown persona.
Now to determine if he really has potential for greatness as you suggest, he needs to carry a film as a lead actor, and in a role that doesn't call for some slightly tweaked version of his past roles. So far, he hasn't really been tested.

I never liked the guy up until a few years ago. Good actor, and proved it once again in Wolf of Wall Street. Excellent, excellent performance!
