Ryan Gosling' acting skills

[Acrobat_Al]

So, what's up with this guy? Is he the next De Niro, the next Pacino? Or just an average actor with good looks?

I think he deliver some amazing performances in 3 movies: Half Nelson, Drive and Lars and the Real Girl; each one of them should have earn him an Oscar nomination (which he received only for his performance in Half Nelson).

As for his acclaimed La La Land role, I have to say that although I really liked the movie I don't think his performance was stunning, but he owns the screen every time that he's on it, does that makes him a great actor?

So, what do you think?

I think he's charming and I like him. He won me over this year in THE NICE GUYS.

He's really good at making this face

He was awesome in The Nice Guys and the girl who played his daughter in the film was great as well.

I still need to see The Nice Guys. Looks pretty great.

The only thing I really know about him is he didn't want to eat cereal and then he ate cereal.

 

[PhilsFan]

He needs safety help over the top, guy just cannot hang one-on-one.

Talented actor with very little range. Will probably never top his performance in the excellent Half Nelson as that was practically made for him. Not deserving at all of a nomination for La La Land.

I gotta check that one out. I think Gosling is a great actor with many good performance left in his film career. He's was good in LaLa Land even if the movie was just okay.

 

[LemonMelon]

La La Land was fantastic but he was just OK in it. That Oscar nomination was him being brought along for the ride.

I like him though and should definitely see Half Nelson/Lars and the Real Girl.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Yes, I'll have to check out Lars and the Real Girl soon. Looks good.

I like him though and should definitely see Half Nelson/Lars and the Real Girl.

Saw both movies over the weekend. Liked Lars slightly more, but Half Nelson was good too.
