Boy was i wrong!


I always took this guy for the sparkly vampire boy in those 'tween movies and the dreamboat type in rom-coms...never thought twice to look into his work

Just recently ive seen him in:
The Rover (14)
The Lost City of Z (16)
Good Time (17)

I must admit he is most impressive in each of these movies...he has screen presence, knows how to use his face/body language, can do the job like a boss and easily matches his co-stars (even Guy Pearce, no easy task)
Im very impressed!
And at about 32 he has decades of work ahead
Quite nice to find a new actor to watch out for

reply

he is best actor he is so beautiful and cute looking guy even a 40s guy like me had a mancrush towards him

reply

He is quite a good actor and I look forward to more of his work

Im not the 'mancrush' type but i am happy for you buddy

reply

You are so NOT a man in your 40's. You already exposed yourself when you said yuo read Twilight while growing up. It was released in 2005.


The math doesn't work.

He’s also probably not a DCEU fan and he probably doesn’t even dislike the MCU. He’s just a troll trying to get a rise out of people.

Hey, people are wrong about Kristen Stewart all the time also.

reply

I know people will throw out Kristen Stewart's name too, but unlike Pattinson she hasn't been stealing films. Pattinson has. She's took risks with more artier fare and has done well, but she had a bit of a rep going into Twilight series for been a good young actress. But damn Pattinson has made me eat my words, but I did see a good actor in the guy when he did that film playing a young Salvador Dali in Little Ashes (2008), I knew something was there that those horrible Twilight films weren't shown us.

He's done work with Claire Denis, David Cronenberg (2), James Gray, David Michiod, Werner Herzog and Anton Corbjin. That's not a bad run of directors to run with.

I say his role in Good Times was probably the best I saw in 2017. He was awesome in that film. Also deliver top notch performances in The Lost City of Z (he's the best thing in it) and The Rover. If he keeps on doing impressive art house and indie films, and throw in the odd cool and great blockbuster film. Many will forget that he was even in Twilight films.

Well put Looper
I need to check out Little Ashes

reply

Twilight, while not Citizen Kane, is criminally underrated.

I remember enjoying the first one.

Netflix is releasing The Devil All The Time with Pattinson this week...can't wait to check it out

reply

I'm gonna hunt down all these titles mentioned in this thread. Cancelled my netflix, so I will figure something out.

reply

Have you seen The Batman? I think he's the 2nd best next to Keaton.

reply

Yes, I loved it!

Pattinson is really great, I’m likely going to rewatch it again tonight, I have it on PLEX

I’m a Pattinson fan for years now, he’s really great👍

reply

I'd have to watch it again to see if I like it better than The Dark Knight. I didn't expect to like it so much considering there was hardly any action.
