I've never seen Anthony Hopkins in any movie where I didn't think he was fantastic. I don't see movies that I'm going to find disgusting, so I don't get a bad impression of actors that I think are good, in the kinds of movies I like. Kwim?
Hopkins was great in a few films. One of my favorities was 84 Charing Cross Road. A wonderful flick. He was pretty good in Leon Uris’s QB VII, too.
