Pitt probably has the strongest performance but his character is so detached and non-emotional, I question how much of a stretch it was to pull off. If you have any interest in seeing this, I advise on passing. 5/10


Maybe a controversial opinion, but I don't think Brad Pitt is a very good actor. For example, Seven and Fight Club are great movies but I think those movies worked well in spite of Pitt not because of him. Maybe that's harsh. Pitt was important to that movie [Fight Club] but because of his charisma, six pack and essence of cool, not any great acting ability.

He's little more than a pretty face.


I like Pitt. Never had a problem with him. He does come off as save and the cool guy, but he also doesn't seem to let it go to his head and seems approachable (at least that's my opinion of him anyway). Not the best of actor's but I've usually enjoyed his work more times than not.
