    At best he is a bit above par as an actor. He has certainly matured since his hissy fit about not getting one for his mediocre performance in Titanic, but I haven't seen anything he's done which I would consider award worthy.
    Sorry, but he's still got time to do something spectacular.

      I've seen a lot of his films and think he's very good. Gangs of New York and Catch Me If You Can and This Boys Life. Titanic, men not my fave, too damn long.
      Who's your fave actor? Just curious.

        I'm not so sure I have one these days. There are so few actors today who play anyone other than themselves. The same person in multiple roles.
        Even some of the most incredibly talented actors seem to be choosing roles that may be challenging and a lot of fun to play, but the films as a whole are rather slow and uninteresting.

            Nothing is better than watching someone take a massive shit in their car.

              No, but he actually went on a rant about actors playing 'rolls' not 'roles'. I corrected him and he deleted his comment and re-replied with the correct term...roles. That's why I said he was burying his turds.

              Hm. I may agree if only for the inconvenience factor...upholstery cleaning guaranteed. Hard to say when we have so many inconvenient shart opportunities.

      Frankly I think he has already done something "spectacular" and that's his first role as the retarded brother in What's Eating Gilbert Grape. He was fantastic in that role enough (almost) to make me forgive him in the Titanic role.

        So this. That's what I was gonna say. You're my knight in shimmering armour. You shimmer and you glow.

          :) I LOVED that movie (Gilbert Grape that is) I mainly watched it because of Jonny Depp but after seeing Di Caprio it was a revelation he was SO damn good. I also have to admit that I actually didn't watch Titanic, the movie ads that I watched were enough for me and also some of the feedback I got from my friends that did see it, made me glad I didn't invest time in watching it.

          Did you like Titanic Countess?

            It's not my cup of tea, but I appreciate it for what it is, all high budget and trope-y, but it's an entertaining film, so I wouldn't be madatcha for liking it.

            Leonardo's in some good films, though. I thought he was boss pants as Calvin Candie in Django Unchained. Would recommend if you haven't seen it.
