@Snowy so needy!!
Mind Hunter taught me all you serial killers are a little bit competitive
The Lecter series taught me they're really happy to help catch their competitors though.

@MN5 I think we just had our first fight....don't look at me..
I am assuming they are either starring Clint Eastwood or Adriana Chechik..
Or Harrison Ford......or Robert De Niro and Al Pacino in their first ever collaboration......or one in which a bunch of Soldiers rescue another one behind enemy lines.....or the one that Liam Neeson made when he was a Austrian businessman during the war......I think a Tarantino movie or two might sneak in...
There's possibly even a couple starring Sigourney Weaver and Arnie.......( not together )

Spencer Confidential
Netflix movie in which Mahk Wahlberg is an ex-cop who tries to solve a dirty cop mystery. It's basically an action-comedy. It falls a little short. Plot is a paper-thin cliche. Some parts you know were in there as LOL moments but just aren't any more than mildly amusing. Alan Arkin is in it, and he's old.
It's in Boston, and the thickest accent is with Mahk's girlfriend. Who also has pretty great cleavage.
It would be an absolutely nothing movie without Mahk being Mahk. We've had the discussion on here before, but i like the bloke. He's pretty funny, and good at taking the piss out of himself. This character could be in any one of half a dozen of his movies. But swap him out for someone charismaless like Jeremy Renner and this movie is a 2.
3 lobstahs out of 5 oh gee i wonder who the dirty cop is.

I agree, but there's actually people out there who rate Renner as an actor.

Agree, Zero Dark Thirty from same director was a much better movie, and more deserving of an Oscar.
@taniwharugby People seem to rate him due to Hurt Locker, I'm not convinced. I actually thought he wasn't too bad in Wind River, which is another overrated movie.

@Bovidae add Primal Fear to that

@taniwharugby But still from the 1990s.
I don't even remember his character in Birdman but he got a nomination.

A big movie can often hype an actor and they do little of note after that. @voodoo mentioned Edward Norton but he's done SFA since Fight Club and American History X.
i think it's mainly because he is a massive fluffybunny who is too hard to work with

I think Norton has preferred to be a character actor on screen than try to be a leading man and do theatre.

Coincidentally, the last movie I watched with him in also starred Renner, The Bourne Legacy.

He was the First big Hulk too but walked away from that. I'm glad too as I really like the guy who plays Bruce Banner now.
