    He's one actor who is successful because of his skill. The guys is amazing. An actor's actor.

    Absolutely. The guy is just incredible. I'll see a film just because he's in it, even if it's a supporting role.

    He's like a talented Kevin Pollack.

    Saw him do many good ones on Letterman. Kevin Spacey is pretty, no, really good at impersonation. I don't know about "acting".

    Then you haven't seen L.A. Confidential, or American Beauty. Check them out.

    Jimmy Stewart? Kate Hepburn? It was more like watching Spacey doing impersonations of Rich Little during impersonations.

    For sure. His portrayal of Verbal Kint in Usual Suspects made me a lifelong fan of his.

    I also liked him in Swiming with Sharks. He played such an unbelievable b*stard in that movie.

    And yet somehow you end up liking him in the end. That son of a b**** probably would have convinced me to do the same as well. Damn he's so convincing :mad:

    Very underrated movie. He's so good, I can even forgive Pay It Forward, which is one of the worst movies ever made.

    And don't forget The Ref. Similar role to American Beauty.

    Way ahead of you, sister (and Deckard/HFord). I think that ONE MOVIE is the only one I have seen of Kevin and whose DVD I own, but it doesn't show me any extremes as a good actor. I also own A Bug's Life (Hopper), which shows him being a meanie.

    "We're partners."
    "What business are you two guys in?" :D That's the best line in that movie.

    Got any more KS movies to recommend?
