This guy is Uber- talented...


I didn't even realize until getting to his page on IMDb that he is a pretty solid actor and that he has directed such films as Made, Elf and then Iron Man... That's pretty impressive, to go from Swingers, (great film) to Iron Man, show's a pretty wide range of talent IMHO. Dude's got skills.

He must be one of the most overall versatile people in the industry.

The guy acts in comedies (he is VERY funny I might add) and directed a super-popular, very well made, action-packed comic book movie, while also writing and producing.

I just don't understand.

He kind of blows my mind a little.

He is very talented. I've been impressed with him for a while now, actually. His directing skills are great, his acting is great, even in romcom Love & Sex I thought he shined through.

reply

definitely!

I've been watching old reruns of "Dinner For Five". Smart and funny guy.

I like how when he acts in a role, you almost don't recognize him... I mean c'mon, how could he be the same guy who played his most famous roles (Swingers, etc.) and also be "Pete the dot-com billionaire who's into UFC" in Season 3 of Friends? Amazing... That's not even touching his mad directing skillz.
