May 7, 20178 yr In terms of these performances, for me it goes... 01. American Sniper 02. Silver Linings Playbook --- 03. American Hustle I found his AH performance forgettable. :( However, I really think he deserved a nomination for 'Burnt'. The film itself wasn't great so I understand it being snubbed, but that's my favourite Bradley performance and I really think it's an underrated performance!
May 8, 20178 yr Author For me it would be 1 Silver Linings Playbook (the film works so well because of the two leads and I couldn't imagine the film without him and Lawrence) 2 American Sniper (I wasn't so keen on the movie but he was one of the better things about it, some of the scenes with him were very sad) 3 American Hustle (He plays a fun character but it's not really a difficult role and he's not one of the highlights of the cast or movie either) I agree with Jonjo that I wish he got more attention for Burnt. I'm not sure if he'd have made my final five because I did prefer other snubs like Johnny Depp in Black Mass and Will Smith in Concussion but it's a shame that the film flopped so bad because he was brilliant and got no recognition for it :(
May 8, 20178 yr I can't say I'm much of a fan at all, "Joy" is my favourite thing that I've seen him in but that's more for Jennifer Lawrence. I guess he's good in Guardians :P I hated "American Sniper" and didn't get the hype for Silver Linings. Jennifer Lawrence was the only thing I really enjoyed about "American Hustle" too. Hopefully "A Star Is Born" can change my opinion of him, or Gaga will just end up being the Lawrence of that movie :lol:
May 10, 20178 yr He should have won for Silver Linings :( SO much better than Jennifer and it's annoying how she was the one to get a win. He was good in AH but I think that that movie was all bout Christian and Amy. Not seen American Sniper but he deserved to win for his thighs alone.
