he's the best thing about season 2 of true detective.

i guess his performance is splitting opinions. i've seen many comments on how good he is on TD and many complaining that he's terrible.

books, records, films - these things matter.

He so bad, he's ruining the show. I'm starting to feel embarrassed for him.

Perhaps his long list of terrible "comedy" films has biased me against him.
I think this is accurate. I didn't see many films with him before, just one or two, because I don't watch comedies. I hardly knew him before TD in which to me seemed very solid.
What has happened to you happened to me with two relatively new and pretty unknown actors, but very well known as comedians: Luis CK and Bill Bur. I can't take any of them seriously in movies, but I think that's because I've watched them too many times in their stand-up comedies.

He is awful. I can't watch his scenes in TD. I had really high hopes, but it's as if he doesn't know how to act.

That's because he's a bad actor, he's crashing and burning because he not playing the same character he always does

I agree. For me, he was likeable and somewhat menacing in it. A respectable gangster if that's possible. The season was not great but everything he did in it was good to me.

I agree! His a really good actor in this dramatic role. Impressing! Just finished the final episode and I'm beaten! Depressed and impressed. Strong show and beautifully directed

I get the impression that if Daniel Day Lewis had played the part the exact same as Vaughn everyone would be wetting their pants about his wonderful understated performance - many people had an opinion of Vaughn prior to the series as a terrible actor so anything less than a Brandoesque performance and they treat it like a Jar Jar Binks outtake.

Season 2 was awful and Vince Vaughn was shockingly bad. His character and performance was totally bizarre. I laughed every time he opened his mouth.

A shame True Detective ultimately sucked. The actors were its only reedeming feature. Loved all of them - Vince, Colin and Kitsch.
Boycott movies that involve real animal violence (& their directors)
