I don't think he's even close to like, Daniel Day Lewis' level, or Gosling's even, but he's at least as good as most Hollywood actours, including Brad Pitt and Leo DiCaprio.

All this Timothee and Zendaya talk is distracting us from the real star of the show: Rebecca Ferguson

I'm convinced the fight scene and it's conclusion at the end is the best part of the movie. So well-choreographed and dramatic.

I've decided Chalamet is boring , but Zendaya has the same scowl on her face the whole movie. It became pretty comical.

When he grabs the blade with his hand as a last effort defense, and the grunts of agony! AGH! And it calls back to the hand in the box scene, how he must endure unimaginable pain to overcome his obstacles and survive.

that is comical, along with the amount of times it cuts to a close up of Bardem's face all "HE IS THE ONE".. straight out of the gosh darn matrix guys

I don't like the music and vibe at the very end. Too sentimental, Braveheart-ish

I think the issue is Timothee and Zendaya’s acting is too subdued in parts. It contrasts too much with the more over the top performances of say anyone playing a Harkonnen baron or Bene Gesserit priestess or just Javier Bardem.
I suppose maybe young people are chill in any dimension, but until Timothee starts yelling, he just seems like he doesn’t want to be there. The first shot of him in the movie, he’s taking a nap for Chrissakes.

That nap wasn't even in the script. They just went with it because he had fallen asleep again.
