Gary Oldman is at his best when he takes an understated role like (soon to be) Commissioner Gordon. Nevertheless, his best role was his rather outlandish performance in “The Professional.”

I’m partial to his performance in True Romance. About as outlandish as it gets.

Did you see Gary Oldman in True Romance?

He played Drexel Spivey...a badass pimp.
Classic scene when he confronts Clarence [Christian Slater].

He was pretty good too as Mr. Zorg in The Fifth Element.

Gary Oldman as Drexel
My favorite scene of all.

WARNING: contains profanity.
