Thought I would put a spin on things after seeing that thread on Denzel on the front page. in your opinion, What is the best/worse film starring Don Cheadle ? I know the majority of poster will probably name-drop Hotel Rwanda and that's cool but what if you were to excluded that film. What's ya take?

He should’ve won the Oscar for Hotel Rwanda.
Somehow I have never gotten around to watching this movie.
I'm adding it to my list now.

Looking at the 2005 Academy Awards, the winner for Best Actor went to Jamie Foxx for his portrayal in Ray.

You have a strong argument. Even without having seen Hotel Rwanda, most sites rate it as a better film than Ray (though to be fair, better film doesn't mean a better individual acting performance)

I'm interested in how the coli feels between the two.

Was Foxx better than Cheadle? :patrice:

Devil in a blue Dress, kinda funny that you say a Denzel thread inspired this one. This one is su supporting but he steals the show
Talk to me. Great performance in an underrated movie, and is the lead
Out of Sight
Rebound: Legend of Earl Manigualt

Outright bad Don performances?....:jbhmm:
not particularly Don's performance but it didn't like Bulworth. I've been meaning to rewatch it for years tho lol
put me on the long list of that didn't care for Crash, not necessarily Don's performance

Cheadle is a weird case because he's pretty much A List, but he never really had a run where he was a Lead or A1 in a cast.

He's like a Premium Character Actor.

It's a good place to be, but I wonder why he never got a shot to go "solo" so to speak?

I like him in Out of Sight. and thought he was wasted talent when he was on E.R.

While I like Bulworth, his performance was not convincing.
But he has many great performances. Traffic or Hotel Rwanda are my favs

For me it's either out of sight or devil in the blue dress, I'd have to look up a dud
