    I think the “overrated” part was where we’re all having trouble. But Angel isn’t coming from the perspective of just an audience member. She’s a WELL trained, classically trained actress. She knows what is necessary to fully develop a character. If you like at him from that angle, I get how she’s saying Denzel doesn’t really disappear with each character. John Leguizamo is an AMAZING actor who is a chameleon. He surprises me with each character.

However he does not hold #1 in my opinion because of the points I made in the video. My top 5 list is: 1. Jeffrey Wright 2. Don Cheadle 3. Denzel Washington 4. Jamie Foxx 5. (Changes frequently but for now I'll say Laurence Fishbourne) I used the word OVERRATED because for a lot of people he is #1 and I knew it would get a bigger reaction from the panel.

    I heard Billy Porter once say that it's harder being the lead character because all the attention is on you and as an actor you don't have anyone to play off of. All the side characters, props and context is dependent on you. All roads lead to you. As a side character of supporting actor, you have room space to blend in and play off of other actors and other spaces. I think part of why people like Denzel, Leo and let's say Brad Pitt don't transform anymore is because they are leading men, the stars of almost every movie they play in. For a while there they also released new movies almost every year. We saw their faces a lot. Part of disappearing into a character has to do with not always having the camera or spotlight on you. It's also sometimes that some people just have very distinctive mannerisms and personalities. The same for me with Kevin Hart, Tiffany Haddish, Steve Martin, Eddie Murphy, Robert Downey Jr, Michael B Jordan, Beyonce etc. The only actor I can really think of that transforms: The LEGEND that is Meryl Streep. Even though you can still always see it's Meryl, you look forward to all the ways she's going to be a vessel and allow you to see into this character's world. Being a good actor is hard. Being a lead actor/actress seems even harder to me.

    I can’t imagine Denzel in a comedy. He’s no Gary Oldman. He’s a dang chameleon. Denzel is just not the best at acting. He HAS to have roles where it’s suited to his personality.
    So he’s a GREAT ACTOR but he’s not the best in the sense that he has ZERO range. He’s AWESOME as Denzel.

      I mean, he’s not wrong because that’s exactly what he does. That’s Denzel’s niche (old tough guy). He CAN play other roles but when casting takes place, roles are filled depending on who fits them the best. They will always come to him with that role because it sells and people know what to KINDA expect from him before even watching the movie. Directors know it will be a hard pill to swallow for the viewers seeing him outside of his niche. Can you imagine Denzel as Deadpool? No! But I’m sure he’d do an amazing job nonetheless.

    I think Angels true defense is the mannerisms of the role of the character the actor portrays. Leo in Django was spot on because he actually went off script during that broken skull scene and hurt himself and it got him gold. Jamie Foxx was almost the second guy during that scene. It's all about how the actor utilizes the characters mannerisms. In my opinion, you can replace Denzel, Will and Jeffery in alot of their movies with another actor. Guys like Jim Carrey, Johnny Depp, Laurence Fishburne and Leo Decaprio, it would be difficult to replace them in some of their respective movies.

    Everyone misunderstood the point that she was trying to make. She messed up by saying the word overrated. Denzel plays Denzel. Doesn't make him a bad actor and hes actually a great one however he's never played a role where the character could be seperated from denzel. We love to see denzel so that's not a problem. However I can't recall a time where I watched a movie and he became something unrecognizable to the audience. An example would be heath ledger playing the joker. How heath ledger transformed himself in that role put him on a different pedestal acting wise. We have never seen denzel perform a role in that manner. That does not mean that Denzel is not a great actor however he isn't very versatile in the way that heath ledger was in that role. If you compared heaths role in Brokeback mountain to the role in Batman he would be almost unrecognizable. if you did the same with denzel in any role it would just be denzel still a great actor but just denzel.

He played a very compelling character - a man who values justice above pretty much everything but whose experiences force him to compromise his ethics. It seemed like a very different role for him. I think he got an oscar nomination, but I wish the film as a whole got more praise. If you haven't seen it, then I would definitely recommend.

    This is the thing about Denzel:
    He doesn't have a Matrix or Batman DK, or Inception.
    What Denzel does is take a regular role like "Man on Fire", "The Negotiator" and makes it absolutely memorable.
    Some of these Chameleons are Chameleons because they don't do anything great, and stand out to be memorable.

Sometimes (key here) he plays himself vs playing the character (with certain roles excluded like Malcolm X).

      @@Whizkidd2025 What's a 'weird' role? He played a sloppy coke snorting drunk in Flight. Nominated for Best Actor. He played a PTSD suffering conspiracy theorist in The Manchurian Candidate. Are you talking about going Johnny Depp and hiding your lack of acting ability behind tons of makeup? Because that ain't it. Most of you are showing your lack of knowledge in this...Denzel took many of the roles he did knowing he'd be paving the way for others to follow. The problem is, he was so GOOD as the handsome, honorable black leading man, that Hollywood decided that was his exclusive role. They did the same thing to Sidney Poitier, his idol, in the 1960's.

      Manu Ginobilis Bald Spot • let’s not do this. I know all of his filmography. I am an avid supporter. But few or his roles you see the character above the man. Like I said, I respect and will always see him but I always see him first. Flight was when I saw Denzel. In Manchurian candidate, I saw him. Like the video and most agreed, he doesn’t take many weird roles. He’s somewhat type casted. Is it Hollywood’s fault that he plays a good role? Nope. But he doesn’t break away from that. He’s not immersed (where you lose the actor in the role) like Daniel Day Lewis but he’s just as loved. Which I said repeatedly.

    She does have a point. He does that half grin, weird laugh, and stutter in every movie he is in. Just like Marvin Sapp does the same run in every song. Its like an artistic "tick".

      I actually agree with Angel on this, except with Malcolm X. He absolutely crushed that role. And there are plenty of actors that do the same thing in every movie. Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Keanu Reeves, Julia Roberts, Reese Witherspoon and Liam Neeson, are all the same in every movie. That doesn't mean that he's not worth watching. He most definitely is worth watching. You're going to get a solid movie out of him, you're just going to be staring at Denzel the whole time.

    Anyone who calls an actor a 'star' is a muppet with zero credibility in the discussion from the outset. Demonstrating that you are blinded by their fame and reputation and not for their talent or actual ability.
    Denzel is overrated. I'd go as far as to even call him a poor actor. He has absolutely no range to play anything other than himself and watching him play himself is comparable to watching paint dry.
