I do enjoy the movies of Christoph Waltz, however I do find his acting style rather one dimensional.
My personal favourites would be the younger Robert De Niro and current, it's gotta be Tom Hardy.
Favourite Actor/Actress?

TV fans of all ages, decades and genres on here. Who tickles your fancy on screen? Ruffles your truffles? No, not like that ( ) I mean more towards the best acting in movies/shows for you...
Past or present.
For myself, maybe Tom Hanks. Though I've really only enjoyed 3 of his performances in the past 14 years. It's his earlier performances that keep him near, or at, the top.
Milla Jovovich is definitely up ther—
Ok, scrap that. Keanu Reeves I really like and he's still pumping out incredible performances currently. The John Wick Saga is outstanding. Mark Wahlberg another.No, not like that, I mean more towards...
What about you folk?
Off the top of my head
Daniel Day Lewis
Cate Blanchett
Gene Hackman
Michael Fassbender
Meryl Streep
Christopher Waltz

Al Pacino and Denzel Washington are two examples of actors who seem to play the same type of character although both are immensely talented
Brad Pitt has performed a wide variety of roles extremely well to be fair, but I thought that his recent train movie was utter junk.
Yes I'm well aware most blokes raved about it!

I'd agree with that. Actors with the most 'range' brings up different names but this guy mentioned by DM would still be near the top.Many actors are 'one dimensional' on the they play/are cast in
