They left out Burt Lancaster, Jimmy Stewart, Alec Guinness, Anthony Hopkins, and my fav, an actor’s actor, the versatile DUSTIN HOFFMAN (Rain Man, Midnight Cowboy, Kramer vs. Kramer, The Graduate, Little Big Man, Tootsie, Wag the Dog, Straw Dogs, All the President’s Men, Death of a Salesman, etc. etc.)
Great list, love them all. But yeah, I 100% agree with you - Daniel Day-Lewis is a flawless actor. I wish he would make more movies, but I understand his need to take time out after a film because he literally becomes the character.
Compare some of these to the icons. James Cagney, Charlton Heston, Cary Grant or someone who didn’t even have to talk Charlie Chaplin. Those are just a few. People just look at their life time and they need to watch the classics and then start comparing. Same with comedians, people can be hilarious without saying a cuss word in every other sentence.
The first time I saw Leonardo DiCaprio was in What's Eating Gilbert Grape. You wanna talk about a great performance. Johnny Deep is also in the movie, but LD stole the show. It's a movie from 1993.
Sorry, but Tom Hanks #1, No. Denzel Washington belongs in this list. Johnny Depp is not #3, imo, although I love his movies & Pirates of the Caribbean was a great movie. I would not include deceased actors as that helps keep the list more accurate in terms of top ten current living actors. So, that would knock out Marlon Brando & create room for Denzel Washington. My top ten current living actor list: #1 Robert DeNiro, #2-Jack Nicholson, #3-Denzel Washington, #4-Al Pacino, #5-Leonardo DiCaprio, #6-Morgan Freeman, #7-Daniel Day Lewis, #8-Samuel L Jackson, #9-Tom Hanks, #10-Johnny Depp. ❤
I like who is on the list, but wouldn't agree with the order. Anthony Hopkins a fantastic actor, Sean Connery, Alan Rickman for just a few British and Scottish actors.
I wouldn’t have said de Capprio or Hanks in top 10, the guy who played Michael in the godfather Al Pacino and Sunny too, I expect if you enjoyed the film then most probably you like the actors too, how about comedic actors like Gene Wilder and Steve Martin ?
Sylvester Stalone, Arnold, Tom Cruise, Richard Geer, Kevin Costner, Clint Eastwood , jerry lewis,Marlon Brando, Sean Connery, Denzel Washington are the favorite 10 for me.
Hey Jimmy made a comment on one of your short videos, back from 2021 and said young , which I should have said young dad, young daughter, no disrespect 😳
Just to through a name out I think Schwarzenegger in his prime was outstanding. He was an action badass and then he could do Twins and Kindergarten Cop and you'd forget all about him being Mr Universe. I miss those kinds of movies. Action and Comedy. Commando! Kidnap his daughter Alyssa Milano and everybody gets merked and he walks off with her held high being the baddest muh f*cka that ever existed! Yeah I was about 11 or 12 when that came out. 💙💯

Many people have a job. A lot of people shine at the job. Actors are paid far too well to perform. My job i have to support clients, tourists and accounts. What you speak of they just have to immitate a fictional person its just a job. You Mr Ntebekos provides entertainment too. Where is the line drawn to greatness. Not to put a fine a point on it. I do love your family videos. We all perform at the best we can, however a movie maker expects the red carpet when the people who are the supporting team should too.
All of them are really good but Tom Hanks at #1??? He and Daniel Day-Lewis should trade places and while I like him very much..DiCaprio should be further down the list maybe #8
My problem is you could probably take 100 actors and they all belong in the top ten. Just like singers. Too many good ones and it will depend on what type of movies you like to watch. Can't argue with yours.
Tom Hanks belongs at #1. Think of the myriad and variety of characters he's played; from a mentally challenged boy/man, to an astronaut, to a man lost on an island for years, to a captain of a hijacked freighter, to the the captain of a plane that ditched in the Hudson, and everything in between. There's been not one movie he's been in that he hasn't been superb in. As far as the rest of the actors, Morgan Freeman definitely belongs at #2, but the rest seem to be great at a limited number of types of characters. My opinion only. Also,what happened to the great women actors. Why weren't some of them on that list?
Number one Al Pacino number two Robert De Niro number three Marlon Brando number four Christopher Walken number 5 Johnny Depp number 6 Jack Nicholson number seven Sean Connery number 8 Paul Newman number nine Robert Redford number 10 Brad Pitt
Where was Tom Cruise? There are so many great, memorable actors from the past (and present) that a list of ten is tough. Though this should have been called the Top 10 Best Current Actors.
I definitely disagree with this list. How can you have a top 10 actors of all time without Brad Pitt, Anthony Hopkins, Christian Bale, Charlie Chaplain, Gerard Butler, Dustin Hoffman, Robin Williams, Paul Newman, or Edward Norton?
Interesting!! I don't agree with this supposed top ten at all . Tom Hanks plays the aww shucks guy in every freaking movie. I don't think any of these actors should be top ten at all. How hard is it to play a mob guy ? Seriously, my ex fiance who owns an italian restaurant could have Way done a better job
