    He’s not a good actor. Not interesting. Boring to watch. He has zero talent in the thespian realm.

    In short, I generally don’t like the films he is in.

    Just my opinion

      I thought he played Zuckerburg incredibly well. Honestly I do. However, I realized later that’s because he has the same super awkward mannerisms as Zuckerberg, and I don’t think he was really doing much acting in that movie. Everything else he’s been in I’ve thought he was awkward and a bad cast

        He plays Zuck so well that he just decided to keep doing it over and over.

        Zombieland = post-apocalyptic Zuck

        BvS = Batzuck

        Rio = Flying Zuck

      Im over here trying to remember if Lex Luthor was even in that movie. That’s how forgettable he was.

        He was super hyper and awkward in that movie. The scene with the candy was just… Bad.

        Luther needs to be calm and collected. A man of charm and charisma. And towering rage when his plots and plans fail.

        Luther cannot be an autistic man child who puts candy in other people’s mouth. That’s exactly the wrong take.
