These performances compelled me to appreciate an actor I typically don't like. Gotta give credit where it's due. Got a nominee for the list? Tag me in a comment.

Bir Erkek Hakkında
If you're not a big Hugh Grant fan, this might give you pause. I haven't seen it (yet), but it comes highly recommended!

Cafe Society
I'm not a fan of Jesse Eisenberg, but he was perfect in Cafe Society.

Dead Presidents
I'm not a fan of Chris Tucker, but he was spellbinding in Dead Presidents. Forget fast-talking attempted comedy, he was dramatically, tear-jerkingly tragic.

I Know This Much Is True
Another Mark Ruffalo showcase. Forget Marvel (I mean, he's good, but overshadowed/underdeveloped). And, again, I haven't seen this (yet), but comes highly recommended.

Self/less
Not a big fan of Ryan Reynolds' endless quip shtick (Blade Trinity was so bad), but he shows real acting chops in Self/less.

Zodiac
Mark Ruffalo shows out, melts into his character in this taut dramatization of a sad episode in crime history.
