I think Pierce Brosnan is pretty too in the Bond movie where he's driving a tank though Prague dressed in a suit...flattens some cars and adjusts his tie to smarten himself up.

I watched both Die Hard 4 and Sin City last week.
Coolest tough guy currently working in Hollywood IMHO

Clint Eastwood.....probably the coolest tough guy ever!

An all-time classic performance. Right up there with Edward G. Robinson as Little Caesar. The Pacino movie was a remake of the original Scarface(1932) with Paul Muni in the title role.
And talk about one cool customer, George Raft's coin-flipping role as the boss's lieutenant, also in Scarface.
Left to right, ad for original Scarface, Paul Muni as Scarface, Geo. Raft, and Edward G. Robinson as Little Caesar.

Amazing scene...

One of my all time favorite films.. And probably the crowning moment in it..

That movie is so deep and layered.. You can just watch it as a dystopian sci fi (modern noir) flick and enjoy it but the many many levels and layers hinting to what is it to be human, what is consciousness, why are we here, as well as huge symbolism (the snake for the garden of eden, eve the seducer) etc etc etc just fill volumes.

In my top 5 movies of all time.

I like when actors take brave / choices..

I think 'about schmidt' was a good role where nicholson took the change from his previous cool / suave roles.
