Was just about to say... No love for The Aviator? He did an excellent job portraying Howard Hughes. DiCaprio has really surprised me with his range of acting abilities.
That movie sucked...However, I've always enjoyed him in all of his roles...he wasn't bad in this one, just the story sucked... Aviator was his best, IMHO...He was great in Departed as well...
Gangs of new york was good, and he was good in aviator, not bad in catch me if you can... but honestly, something about the dude just irks me. I tend to try and avoid his films... not as much as , say, a tom cruise film, but there is some aversion.
I think he's on of the top actors out there right now. Yeah Titanic was pretty lame, but the guy can just flat out act.
the departed was good. it was entertaining. not every best picture can be the godfather i would say yes you're gay if this was after titanic, but he's pretty damn good. i loved blood diamond.
I used to like him as adopted seaver. He is a really good actor, but John leguizamo made Romeo and juliet. Now that guy, john, is underrated. Everyone needs to watch Freak, it's hilarious. what about what's eating gilbert grape? or The Bball diaries? the talent was always there.
i'm sorry but entertaining it is not, it doesn't have to be the godfather. its just way overdone, overacted and corny. In my Humble Opinion of course, to each his own. but my point isn't that it isn't a classic. the matrix is entertaining. The Departed is just a hodgepodge of guys getting the crap beat out of them.
I am not a girl. I am not gay. I am from Texas. I don't like quiche. I played football (the real kind where you hit people). Therefore, I do not like Leo. (I didn't like him from the first time I saw him as a punk ass kid in a commercial.)
He is a very inconsistent actor. He was absolutely horrible in Romeo and Juliet. He was bad much of the time in Titanic, He's been bad in a few other films as well. He's been really good in some films including Blood Diamond, and that Howard Hughes film. He was also good in Gangs of NY. When somebody is that inconsistent I tend to think that maybe it's the director that gets enough good footage to make them look good. Even at his best he could never play the range of roles somebody like Depp could. Watch Finding Neverland and try and imagine DiCaprio in that film. He couldn't do it.
I'd say he's progressed quite a bit as an actor, I always enjoy watching his films and look forward to them when they are released. One of the best actors in Hollywood as of right now.
Him along with Will Smith are two of my favorite actors. Leo is one of the very few that can carry a movie all by himself. He hasn't had to much, but I think he could. Beach, Titanic, Aviator, Blood Diamon, Departed, CMIYC, I love them all.
catch me if you can is a great great movie, but i wouldn't consider myself a fan boy departed is all marky mark fo sho
