    The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences should've nominated (Best Actor) Jacob Gyllenhaal for his portrayal of "Lou Bloom" in 2014's Nightcrawler.

    He truly creeped me out in Nightcrawler.

    As far as newer actors go though I think Michael Fassbender, Oscar Issac, Christoph Waltz, Javier Bardem are the elite

    Hate to break it to you but hes portraying the same character in everyone of those movies. Unless you are being sarcastic then...you know cool.

    His last paragraph should've made it obvious to you.

    He is underrated. His last few movies blew me away. Great actor, and it was a good thing that his action star attempt bombed (Prince of Persia).

    Exactly. He gets absolutely no respect. Him, Jack Nicholson, Kevin Spacey. Must be a conspiracy.

    People are just lazy to rate him. He is in his best years as an actor (male 29-50)

    He comes from an artistic family - sis Maggie......and perhaps his parents

    He is just like Harden, in his prime, probably getting mature and better
