Hey, lest you think that I'm 100% a BW fan, I'm not.He started on TV in a comedic role for Blue Moon and was more than adequate. He moved into action flicks and the example of DH, which I cited, showed that he could tip-toe with (somewhat) precision through more 'smart allacky' comedy and a gruff seriousness in one vehicle. While I'll agree that his roles can be similar, all you need to do is watch LAST MAN STANDING, THE SIXTH SENSE and THE WHOLE NINE YARDS to see that he's not a one trick pony.
I guess since he's really never been in any 'serious' movie, he get's lumped in there with the pure action stars and overlooked?
Anyhow, I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.

This is exactly what I am talking about. We are not talking about slave labor here, if he WANTED to be in a "serious" movie, he had the possibility to do it for what, 25 years now?
I could have worked for a start-up making big bucks, but instead I chose to work for medical research. Jedem das seine.
