I see your point - Both performances were good but I had a few bones to pick.Cillian Murphy's role had some similarities to his "evil" character in "Batman Begins". Actors like Gary Oldman ( Christopher Walken in his prime) play dark characters with more range then Cillian mustered up for those two "bad guy" portrayals.
One other thing- in the same way I have trouble accepting Tom Cruise as someone over 22 years old, I have trouble accepting Jodie Foster as a heterosexual female. I don't think she played a grieving wife and mother successfully. Personally, I just couldn't buy it.
Either way, if you saw them in the theatre - Good for you! I think going to the movies and seeing a film on the big screen is where it's at ... Even though I'm glad I didn't shell out $10.50 each for those turkeys!
I always enjoy your posts Tin!
