Re: That Vulture ranking of all his movies, Fallen should be a little higher, but YES! Finally someone gets how good The Mighty Quinn is! And it's not just about Washington's charisma, though he surely delivers that in spades.

I feel like this movie could have been 10x better if they had cast anyone, anyone in the world other than Jared Leto

I liked this movie alot, but that's funny about Jared Leto. He somehow seemed like he was in a different movie than everyone else.

The Jared Leto movie was pretty good, I thought. The Rami Malik movie was ok, too, but not quite as solid. They could have both played into The Denzel Washington movie successfully, but you can't always get what you want.
