Deniro was great from 76 to 96....there might have been a couple of movies after 96 but everything since then has been worse and worse.
One thing I liked about Bob is when he was a serious actor, we didn't know anything about him. He kept a very serious but private public persona. I think he even said that it's easier to pull of a good performance the LESS the audience knows about you.
But as his movie portfolio and his acting have nosedive into mediocrity, his public life has been embarrassing for any self respecting person. But I'm sure Libs like him more now than ever
