Just for Danny Dyer (why the hate?)


I haven't watched the movie yet but I'm here just for Danny Dyer, he stole my heart in "Borstal Boy" and I cried (I admit it)... But recently I have read so many negative comments about him and his characters so I want to understand why so much hate towards him...

What do you think about the guy in this movie and his recent work?

I absoluteley love love love Danny Dyer. He`s my favourite actor.
I guess the "hate" comes from the fact that he always (almost) plays same type of character but that doesn`t bother me because he does it so well :-).

-John, I love you.
-In the play. I know.
-I`m going to kiss you.
-No point.

The guy's a dreadful actor and seems like some 14 year old chav convinced that he's tough. It's excruciating to watch the deluded prat giving off this pathetic persona that he believes everyone's buying.

Because the man has limited, if any, discernible talent. All he has got is-a face.
And in real life he is one of those ignorant, thick, chavy, humourless idiots you get in towny pubs-with noisy brat kids and blinged up blonde wives in burbery and fake fur.
