Hes pretty good.

Thought most consider him a great actor.

I'd argue that he's fairly talented but somewhat fenced in by being shockingly good looking. Most of his characters fall within a spectrum from stoic, literally me guy to goofy fella, and he's good in that range. Not many of his roles have expected him to venture much beyond that...I can't think of a role where he was pushed much to go bonkers. A few instances as Tyler Durden. His acting as Jessie James might be his best / most nuanced. I'd put him in B tier as a good but not spectacular actor, but he's done many of the parts he's been given very, very well. Obviously, I liked him as Cliff Booth.

Thought he also showed a lot of range in A River Runs Through It, Legends of the Fall, Se7en just off the top of my head.
I guess he has mostly been in 'bigger' movies since 2000 but he is also one of the main reason all of his movies are watchable.
I think the same criticism can probably be applied to just about any actor once they get big enough

I am just a know nothing in the world of grading actors but I think he is amazing. Snatch and 12 Monkeys are by far the favorite of his roles for me.

He'll always be Floyd to me!

He was shockingly good in Dead Pool 2!

He's had some great roles... Cliff Booth being my favorite. Loved him in Moneyball as well.

Pitt is a notch below the really great actors like Day-Lewis, Decaprio, Bale, etc.

I'd put him above such luminaries as Travolta, Affleck, Marky Mark, Common, & Nick Cage and more in line with guys like Harrison Ford & Matt Damon.

I just look at his hair and cheek bones and six pack

Brad Pitt is a good actor. Can play both dramatic and comedic roles which is not something you say about actors who are not good at their job.

Great movie star, good actor.

I'd label him as very good

I thought Fury was a one of his best movies that is overall pretty underrated.

Bullet train is a great recent movie he did. Like if John Wick and Guy Ritchie had a baby.

While I agree with this in premise, he's also got an Oscar which generally takes you out of the "good" category.

I liked him in this scene. I think he did a great job with the accent.
