Christian Bale
I'm sure he is probably a DB out in the real world but I really enjoy his movies and I am looking forward to seeing Vice.

Dark Knight
The machinist
Equilibrium
American Psycho

I liked him a lot in all the Batman movies...

Matthew McConaughey had the better role but I liked Reign of Fire a lot.

Haven't seen much from him, but I did here The Prestige was really awesome a few years back. Just haven't got around to watching it yet.

As long as no one has spoiled it for you then yes it is a good movie. The problem with a movie like that for me is that i can only watch it two times before i lose interest and the want to watch it a 3rd or 4th time.

McConaughey

Dazed and Confused

Definitely!

Contact - He played the love interest and counterpoint to Jodie Fosters ultra-rational scientist as a "new wave" religious spokesman. I think he did a very good job with it too. Another favorite movie of mine.

Interstellar
Reign of Fire

Yeah. I looked up his list online and easily saw another 5-10 I really liked..
I glanced through his list as well and couldn’t find a real stinker in the lot. He really does have a perfect record so far.

Well Hanks has had a few but very few...

I didn't see Cloud Atlas and a few others.
He was ok in the DaVinci movies but not great.

And some of his earlier comedies but even then he had some good one there too.

He's still going strong. The last movie I saw of his was Bridge of Spies and damm if that wasn't good.

Already mentioned, but the Spaghetti Westerns are his opus.

Gran Torino is a career defined as well.

I couldn’t make it through the first 20 mins or so of Cloud Atlas, but others have raved about it, so I give it a break.

His pre-Oscar stuff is really light-hearted, but he was always good in them.

I think the first time I saw him was on TV in Bosom Buddies (with the gorgeous Donna Dixon) He was funny as hell. He was pretty good at comedy too.

Half of Cloud Atlas is really creative and the other half is kinda cliche and they mash it together. I also think Halle Berry is pretty awful in 90% of her movies but overall I'd say I enjoyed the movie.

The Circle is the lowest ranked Tom Hanks movie on 'Ranker' website. I think thats a pretty fitting worst movie.
