Top 5
Tyler Durden, Fight Club - This one is a no-brainer. No list of Brad's best characters can't not have this guy on it. Did I just pull off a triple negative? You're damn right I did.Mills, Se7en - "What's in the box!". I wonder if I would have picked him for this role if it weren't for how awesome Kevin Spacey made this movie.
Mickey O'Neil, Snatch - I couldn't understand a word his character said in this movie, but it didn't matter because that's what made it so fantastic. I don't know if anyone has seen this movie, but if you haven't, I suggest doing so. As a bonus, it was the first time I saw Jason Statham in a movie.
Jeffrey Goines, Twelve Monkeys - For the most part, this movie was confusing, but Brad's part was great. In fact, I really feel like he should take another part like this one in the near future, it would restore my faith in the direction of his career.
Lt. Aldo Raines, Inglourious Basterds - It was a tough call between this role and his character in Burn After Reading, but I went with this one just because of his "Italian" accent. That and this was the closest he ever got to playing his role from Twelve Monkeys again.
Bottom 5
Paul Maclean, A River Runs Through It - All I know about this movie is that it is really boring and not worth my time.Tristan Ludlow, Legends of the Fall - Ditto.
Achilles, Troy - The problem I had with Brad in this movie is that no matter how attractive people say he is (and he is a good looking dude), he just didn't fit this part at all. I always felt Achilles should be more badass and less pretty and therefore Brad's character just wasn't right for this role.
Jerry Welbach, The Mexican - Have you seen this piece of garbage? Neither have I, but I heard it was terrible.
Billy Beane, Moneyball - I picked this one because 1) the real Billy Beane looks nothing like Brad and 2) this movie was kind of lame. His team didn't actually win the big game, what's the fun in that? As good as Billy Beane's system was, it obviously isn't good enough to win it all and therefore his story should have never been made into a movie, especially a movie that was somehow nominated for Best Picture.
