It took him so long to get upto speed IMHO. I don't think he became a 3D character until "Trapped In Paradise" and/or "Guarding Tess". Before that he was some lost pathetic relentlessly "coming of age" clueless loser. He seemed so contrived. I began wondering why he was still getting parts but he came into his own.PS: I did like "Rock" & "Con Air" after "Leaving Los Vegas". Even though those 2 weren't as challenging, I'd prefer owning "Rock" & "Con Air" since I'd like to see them again & again. However, Steve Buscemi & Sean Connery are contributing factors.
