You can say the same for most actors. Tom Cruise plays the same exact hot-shot character in every movie, same for Denzel Washington, Samuel L. Jackson, Joe Pesci, etc.

It's been this way ever since the silver screen. Marilyn Monroe was the sexy, soft-spoken blonde, Humphrey Bogart was the tough, no non-sense guy, Jimmy Stewart was the likable nice guy....and on and on.

Bruce was no different from most of the great actors.

Some, like Tom Hanks, Robin Williams, are more versatile, playing many diverse roles.πŸ‘

I've enjoyed some of his performances but I don't think any of his films would be in, say, my top 200 films.
The Fifth Element and Sixth Sense were excellent.

Both very watchable movies in their time though I think.

Gibson is possibly one of the worst actors of the superstar Hollywood elite, although I do like most of his films. Nicholas Cage must be the worst, for me he is unwatchable. City of Angels I throw up for immediate evidence.

Nicholas Cage did a well received performance in Leaving Las Vegas - his best perhaps.

And to be fair I’ve not watched much of his stuff.
Possibly due to City of Angels πŸ˜†

I haven't been impressed by Nicholas Cage acting in other films, but he moved me in Leaving Las Vegas as an alcoholic going to that city with the sole purpose of drinking himself to death.

I liked the film where Cage was a booze hound drinking himself to death.
Can't remember the name of it.

He does play one of the greatest booze hounds in cinematic history.
