Arnold Schwarzenegger
I'll Be Back... more
Leonardo Pieraccioni
Maybe, but I don't think just speaking in Tuscan is enough to make people laugh. more
Michael Shannon
An exceptional actor, discovered in recent years in independent films and almost always in insane roles... he deserves more attention. more
Bill Cosby
Funny king of US-made sitcoms. It reminds me of my childhood, that's why a 5 is a must! more
Michael Douglas
Always a bit over the top, too over the top. However, overall he is good, no doubt about it. more
Marx
How to make someone laugh heartily after 80 years (!!!!!). Exceptional. more
Hackman
Another simply fantastic actor. In "The Violent Arm of the Law," for example, he is monstrous. more
Arnold Schwarzenegger
A great one. The mere fact that he starred in a film ("Last Action Hero") where he pokes fun at the genre that made him rich makes him an example. more
Sean Penn
Remarkable in almost every one of his performances. more
Martin Sheen
An exceptional actor, perhaps even too underrated. In Apocalypse Now, he is absolutely monumental in his portrayal of a life that is painful, true, and frighteningly believable; however, he is also exceptional in other films like "La Rabbia Giovane" or in the lesser-known "Quella strana ragazza che abita in fondo al viale" alongside Jodie Foster. A great actor, in the '70s he is among my favorites. more
Kirk Douglas & Dewey Martin
Kirk Douglas, an immense actor, undoubtedly among the greatest of his generation (chilling in "Paths of Glory") a step and a half above his talented son. Legendary. more
Kurt Russell
Kurt Russell is to B-action movies what Bruce Willis is to A-action films. Ironic and self-ironic, in short, a legend. "Snake Plissken? You were thought to be dead." more
Michelle Pfeiffer
But 5 all the way. Amazing woman and very talented actress, with quite a few great performances in her repertoire. Not always involved in high-level films, but The Age of Innocence, Scarface, Batman Returns, just to name a few, are certainly not small potatoes. more
Sean Penn
Excellent actor and great director. What more could one want? more
Malcolm McDowell
One single great role, stitched onto him in an indelible way, performed in a stellar manner. In the guise of a character that is a part of cinema history, with one of the most intense, brilliant, shocking, and convincing performances ever; a single colossal role to rightfully earn a place in history, and a special one at that. Unforgettable. more
Robert Redford
A great actor, perhaps a tad overrated, but a great actor nonetheless. more
Buster Keaton
With the "rival" Chaplin, the absolute icon of silent cinema. Fundamental and seminal. more
Charlie Chaplin
There is little to define here, just observe. more
Marlon Brando & Jean Simmons
Very little to say about Marlon Brando: one of the greatest actors of all time, period. The greatest actor of the '50s and '60s, and the irony is that his most beautiful performances might actually be those from the '70s (The Godfather and Apocalypse Now, both by Coppola). After that, there was a slow decline, but who cares, for him it was thirty years at the highest possible levels. An extraordinary, legendary, unforgettable actor. Absolutely immense, often perfect. more
