…tbf, I did once find Jim Carrey irritating as well with his lighter roles but I love the blend of dark and light with the many characters he’s played …and maybe I’ll grow to appreciate Ryan more with more serious roles, also…?…and once I stop finding him so irritating……

…I probably thought it was ok tbh…I can’t recall many specifics about it but I generally like hero origin stories and that was possibly one of the first times that I was familiar with Ryan Reynolds…so the irritation hadn’t set in yet with his monotonous characters……

Hollywood could always take a chance on someone? Like Marvel did when they hired Chris Hemsworth from Home & Away, back in the day.

One of the two oldest Stark brothers from Game Of Thrones maybe.

Richard Madden or Kit Harington

…I’ll possibly watch it, it’s not a bad trailer at all…I’m just not a Brad Pitt fan/whatever his age and would have preferred he wasn’t in a starring role…

These types of movies don't interest me, I'm not a Brad Pitt fan either .... Curious Case Of Benjamin is probably one of his best movies, I don't watch many of his movies.

I saw Fight Club & Jesse James which were ok.

But yeah he's a very overrated actor.

Seven was underwhelming & I don't think I've ever sat through Meet Joe Black .

Se7en was excellent. Even though it also has Kevin sleazeball Spacey, he is an incredible actor though

Oh Thelma and Louise was amazing too (even though I wouldn't consider that a Brad Pitt movie per se, his is only a small part in it, same with True Romance but Brad Pitt was pretty funny in that and he was great in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

Not to spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen seven but Brad Pitt's reaction/ acting alone at the end was laughable in a bad way.

I found the idea of the movie interesting,but It felt very meh .

Yeah I wouldn't really class Thelma & Louise as a Pitt movie ... He's only in it briefly Lol . But I'll admit I've never sat and watched it fully , only seen clips.

Again I've never watched the once in Hollywood thing , maybe I should .

I do think Brad's acting has massively improved over the years actually, Se7en was the 90's (94/95 I think) he's definitely better in his later movies, you're right his acting wasn't great in Se7en but Kevin Spacey and Morgan Freeman were great in it.

You should definitely put Thelma & Louise on your list of films to watch, it's so good!

Freeman & Spacey have always delivered....I agree.

Yeah I can appreciate actors can develop over the years in their skills, but Pitt is just not my favourite. Same with Ben Affleck & Robert Patterson, never understood how they both got picked as Batman....both are extremely boring .

Yeah I'll have to check out Thelma and Louise, it's one of those movies I keep saying I should watch .

Neither are very like-able I think or come across that way anyhow, I don't really have any opinion on them as people, they come across kind of arrogant and cold or something. I used to feel similar about Jamie Foxx and Denzel Washington just from watching them in films but they're both so like able in interviews just being themselves that I like them on screen now too

…awwww, I loved the story of Benjamin Button…..and I have to say that aim loved Se7en as well…Fight Club is a movie that I haven’t actually ever seen, strangely…it’s just never appealed to me…

…I think that maybe explains it for me with Brad…I don’t mind him as a part of a cast but he’s just not a ‘lead’ actor for me…like with the Oceans 11 type movie when there are multiple big names, he’s fine for me as one of those names…but not as a solo starring role…

Timothee Chalamet could captivate audiences with his driving skills.

[Mystic Mock]

Or Zandaya actually.

I went to see it. The racing scenes are really impressive, with the music, sound and visuals.

The film is long at 2 and a half hours. Sometimes I felt it.

In terms of the realism it's not too bad. All the real-life drivers are in it although I don't think any of them get any speaking lines.. Some of the team principles get a few lines. The bit which stretched credibility was when Brad Pitt started using tactics on track that reminded me when Nelson Piquet Jr crashed deliberately to help the team at the Singapore Grand Prix. In real life that would cause a massive controversy and he'd be getting banned etc.

There is a commentary during races by David Croft and Martin Brundle from Sky. They basically explain what is going on for people who have never watched the sport before - eg. the first time is an explanation of the formation lap. I thought there was a way they could have explained stuff and made it sound more natural.

Also qualifying is completely ignored which I thought was a bit of an odd choice.
