Tom Hardy is amazing


This is the kind of movie I typically wouldn't enjoy - or even bother to watch at all. But I stumbled upon the opening scenes and I couldn't stop watching. I just couldn't take my eyes of Tom Hardy. He. Is. Amazing. I already feel like watching it again just to see his performance again. He did such an amazing job with this sensitive, intriguing part.

I agree. Excellent actor. Excellent performance. Great movie

I became a massive massive fan of Hardy before watching this. I didn't want to watch it initially too because these types of films aren't my 'cup of tea'. I did give it a try due to liking 'RocknRolla'. I was the same too when it started, I was glued to him and I loved every moment of the film but i was so imprsessed his acting and I adored his sweet character that he portrays...

On a side note too I've watched every film that Tom HARDY has featured in from 2006 and this is in my top 3 films of all time

He was good but Schoenaerts and Gandolfini were so much better (both great actors)

reply

I haven't seen Gandolfini in anything else and I didn't care about him in this movie, but I agree that Schoenaerts was great, along with Hardy. You couldn't even tell that Schoenaerts is actually from Belgium.

I have to disagree here. I was mesmerized by Tom Hardy's performance. To me, the rest of the cast was good but Tom was phenomenal.

reply

Totally agree; not my kind of movie, turned this on about 15 minutes in and was mesmerized by Tom Hardy's performance that I couldn't stop. All the acting was terrific and good story, but Hardy stole it.

This is my kind of male hero! Cinema needs more of this kind.

Agree Hardy was great. Also became a fan after the Drop though I had seen Mad Max
previously.

The rest of the cast was very good as well which turned a small movie into one that I always stop and watch when on.

I like to watch movies when using the treadmill. Do not know if I would do it otherwise.

Yes Hardy was excellent as usual.
