this is the first film i have seen him in where he gave an engaging leading man performance. he was a villain that i did not want to die, which is always a good sign imo. i found his character convincing too. henry is a gorgeous bloke, god bless him, but his acting range is limited. i'm pleased to see that with the right direction he can give a decent performance. maybe one day soon WB will find a decent director for the DC cinematic universe, and he 'll become the superman i fondly remember from my comic book days.
