He has roles where he is good, but good shouldn't win an academy award.
Hancock was better than I Am Legend.
He was good in Pursuit of Happyness too.
I'll look into them, thanks, though I think I saw Pursuit. Still, maybe worth a second watch. But please tell me Hancock isn't a superhero.
Also, finished Seven Pounds - that damn film was fantastic. When it's done well (Sixth Sense, perhaps, Memento ...), I quite enjoy films that manipulate the audience.
