I've been watching a lot of Band of Brothers lately and I can't help noticing that Kirk looks just like a very young Humphrey Bogart and even acts and talks like I'd image Bogart would today (not dead just how acting has changed since Bogart's day).
I'm a huge fan of Kirk's work from Band of Brothers to OZ to Witness to the Mob. Hope to see him get more and bigger work in the future. I could totally see him heading up a film noir movie.
Anyway just wanted to mention this and give some praise to my boy.

I don't know if it's the shape of his face or what, but this is one of the few times I'd agree and can say that I honestly see it!

I never thought of it but I can totally see what you mean.

I always thought Kirk's intensity and naturalism was more Brandolike than Bogartlike but I've only seen him in Oz.

I just watched this guy in the movie Invincible with Mark Wahlberg and I couldn't stop thinking how much he reminded me of Al Pacino. I'm not saying he doesn't resemble Bogey, but I favour the Pacino thing a bit more. Same voice, similiar look. He's a Tony Montana for the Millenium. Say hello to my little friend!

Like a couple others, I never put it together myself but I do see it now that you said it.

He also looks like a slightly shorter Brad Garrett (Everybody Loves Raymond).
Don't you think?

OMGlolololol
You're so right. He does look a lot like Bogie. Been trying to put my finger on who he reminds me off.

Like a few others here, I never would have thought of making the comparison, but it's definitely there. There's something of a physical resemblance, but I think it's more about the attitude and overall "aura" of those two. As much as I hate to trash Bogey (beloved icon that he was) in any way, I actually think Kirk is a better actor.
EDIT: I also see a pretty strong resemblance to Nicolas Cage. Anybody else?
