Gangs of New York), to choices that are more controversial (Hugh Grant in Love Actually? Yes, really!)And while you’re here, why not also sample the inverse of this strange occurrence – brilliant performances in otherwise terrible movies…Gyllenhaal is guilty of too much acting in Denis Villeneuve’s grimy child-abduction thriller. While the other A-listers that surround him (including Hugh Jackman and Viola Davis) bury themselves in grief and rage, Gyllenhaal seems to be in a different film entirely. He’s all twitches and facial tics, injecting off-putting weirdness in a movie that absolutely doesn’t need it.
