Film Critic Quote of the Week

“It's long been Spacey's dream to make a biographical film about Bobby Darin… now that Spacey's dream has come true, viewers have the chance to see a two-hour film with little film sense, about a phenomenally selfish entertainer who was a prick to pretty much everyone, played by an actor who's 15 years too old for the part and who insists on doing all his own singing and dancing even though he's not very good.”
Matt Zoller Seitz, reviewing "Beyond the Sea" in New York Press. Kevin Spacey's five-year streak of failing to appear in a single watchable film sadly continues. Posted by Stephen Silver at December 16, 2004 05:12 AM

I am thrilled. I've been sick of Spacey's schtick since American Beauty.

Oh, and randomly: whatever Bobby Darin may have been in his personal life - I saw an old clip of him singing, of all things, "Michael Row the Boat Ashore" on the old Judy Garland-hosted variety show. It is one of the most riveting (and SEXY) things I have ever seen. He reminded me of ... Bob Mitchum, or Russell Crowe in LA Confidential. That kind of mean sexiness.

Uhm ... who does Kevin Spacey think he's kidding? Kevin Spacey has a bit of talent, yes, but "mean sexiness" is not part of that talent.

Sorry for the rant. I'm psyched people are starting to call him on his limitations. 'Bout time.

I realize, though, that when you wrote the word "sadly" in your post, that you probably disagree with my annoyance at Spacey?? I have definitely liked him in some roles, but now I think he's just doing the same thing over and over. It was interesting and startling in Usual Suspects and Glen Garry Glen Ross ("GO. TO. LUNCH") - but now not so much.

Mean sexy?
How about Swimming with Sharks?

I don't think the guy is sexy. I think there's something bound-up in his sexuality - something he never wants to show. He can do mean, he can do contemptuous, he can do all of that in a very funny biting way (a la Swimming with Sharks) - but I never get a sense of smouldering sexuality in the guy (like I did with Bobby Darin).
