I'm with erika and ita in not being large with the Brad-love. I know there was something I thought he was hot in, but I can't remember it now...mostly I'm just surprised when it turns out he can act as well as look pretty.
Fight Club
was like
American Beauty
for me...except worse, because Ed Norton gives me hives. I know people love it, and even people whose movie taste I trust, respect, and know to generally square with mine. That's why I've taken more than one run at it.
Maybe I should read the book. (Although the book couldn't do the fun stuff, like zapping Brad into a frame or two for a what-the-hell-was-that moment).
Heh. I just can't put my finger on why, but that's pretty much it for me, too.
For me it was Tilda Swinton. Her role had the most deviation from the source material, but I think all the changes (and her performance, naturally) were brilliant and greatly improved upon the original.
I thought Keanu did a good job portraying some character that coincidentally shared the same name and smoking habits as the John Constantine from the comics. As long as I didn't let myself look at it as an adaptation, it was entertaining.

I wouldn't recommend it, actually. It's the perfect kind of book for a movie adaptation -- fantastic ideas and themes, but bloody awful writing.
I thought it was weird, like one type of movie in the first half and another in the second.
Not very good, although there were interesting things in it.About Constantine...haven't ever seen all of Fight Club yet.

Not this ita
and
this erika--I think he ranges from hot to pretty onscreen. erika, NSM.
I loved the first hour of Fight Club, and then lost patience with it. The performances were all excellent, though.
I find Mr. Pitt very pretty (he's blindingly perfect in
A River Runs Through It)
but not particularly sexy most of the time. I was skeeved out by him in
Troy.
I agree with ita on the Smith and Ocean's love, though.
(he's blindingly perfect in A River Runs Through It)
It's astonishing how much he resembled a young Redford in that movie.

Did you see
Spy Games?
It was distracting to have them not playing relatives.

Agreed. He's like a male version of Charisma Carpenter. (Who I also think is very pretty, but not sexy to me in the least.)
There is something about Brad's hands that just KILL me ded in every flick, even the ones where I don't find him otherwise attractive.
