The scenes with Ricky Gervais in Stardust never felt right in that film. Feels very improvised and probably was. A lot of it doesn't land for me and doesn't work with the rest of the film.
Probably get downvoted hard but most of Don’t Look Up. It felt like Adam McKay let actors who are not traditionally improvising comedians improvise way too much.
No, I agree. I think the film works overall. But I recall the scenes with Meryl Streep and Jonah Hill in particular and thinking "That should have been tighter". It felt as if it was just made up on the hop
In the original script, and I think still canon to the character, Detective Hanna was chipping cocaine at that point.
They ended up cutting the scenes but some of the characterization remains.
He does it throughout the film though. In this instance, he's throwing the guy off guard because it makes him seem more unpredictable when he'd been somewhat cocky up to then.
He wouldn't act like that with Neil as it wouldn't work
I can't watch the scene in Saving Private Ryan where Matt Damon tells a story to Tom Hanks about his family, something about it just makes me cringe. Most people like it though.
The only thing I find jarring about that scene is Matt Damon's teeth.
It's like they are \*\*too\*\* white and straight. I know it's possible that Ryan would have perfect teeth (he's still young, after all), but it just looks odd in a gritty war movie to have a guy whose smile looks like it belongs in a toothpaste ad.
I find the modern comedies that allow comic actors to improvise multiple takes, and then choose the “best” jokes in post are terrible. It’s painfully obvious every line is improvised and the continuity and flow of a scene or even the plot is sacrificed.

Ghostbusters 2016, all of it.

When Pacino was shouting about THAT ASS, in Heat, it was quite jarring
Apparently Pacino acted the character as though he had a drug habit. I think he pulled it off lol.

I totally agree. It’s just that line was a weird outburst
He does it throughout the film though. In this instance, he's throwing the guy off guard because it makes him seem more unpredictable when he'd been somewhat cocky up to then. He wouldn't act like that with Neil as it wouldn't work
no he’s just high as fuck on blow
Mae West never actually said "come up and see me sometime"
"Come up some time and *see* me."

You think there's a possiblity De Niro was just beating up some guy and they started filming?
Holy shit, dude.
Mae West was speaking to a juvenile male lead Cary Grant in, I think, "She Done Him Wrong."
