I've always thought Liam could pull off a bad-ass character real well and I think he reached his pinnacle in Batman Begins. He was my favorite character in The Phantom Menace, and we know how that turned out. He had a brief part in Gangs of New York and probably could gave the movie a little more dignity if he stayed in it longer. This year he was also in Kingdom of Heaven, playing the father of the hero again, and yet he was quite badass as well. I've yet to see Kinsey but will check it out asap because of Liam. And oh yeah he was in Schindler's List too.

I would like to see some sort of action/adventure movie where Neeson plays a mentor to the main character.

Good one
Anyway I have always thought that Liam was and underappreciated actor. I have always enjoyed his work.
Oh yeah, he played the best character in The Phantom Menace with Ewan McGregor in a close second though.

Liam is a badass plain and simple, Just a great f'n actor all around and I too wish he was in Gangs of New York a little while longer ;)

I thought he was great in Michael Collins and made Rob Roy a watchable movie. Also, he played a small part in the fantasy movie Krull. I love watching him onscreen and feel like he should have gotten more attention earlier in his career. He has a commanding, sometimes intimidating presence. Now he's 53 and won't be able to do physical roles much longer. This thread kinda bums be out.

With all the serious stuff he ended up doing in recent years, I always like going back a little and watching him in High Spirits. I'll bet it's one of his favorite roles, considering he got to share a shower with a very naked and wet Beverly D'Angelo.

He rocked in Schindler's List, and was definitely at his best in Batman Begins too, great as a bad guy!!

I like Liam alot, but didnt care for him in Batman Begins.....They needed someone more low-key for that role IMO.
Of course, I think he was brilliant in Schindler's List. I dont remember off hand, but was he nominated that year and who actually won? Tom Hanks maybe?

He's great in Batman Begins, but not half as good as he was in Kinsey, where I really think he came into his own. Amazing work.

Yeah, I cannot believe everyone here is saying they love Neeson, pretty much only talking about Batman & Star Wars, when his greatest role will always be Darkman.

Anyone heard of The Other Man (2008) with Neeson, Bandaras, and Laura Linney? Sounds like an Unfairhful rip off, but these films intrigue me.
^Yeah his problem with incontinence is well documented, but he's still a helluva an actor.

His "ghost" presence was sorely missed in Eps 2 and 3, esp at the end of 3 where he was supposed to be talking to Yoda.

I hope that pic is fake. He just seems way too relaxed for it to be real. You'd think he'd react to the warm feeling in his pants and rush to get changed.

I dunno..his face does like a bit flushed...like a bit tipsy? I just googled Neeson drunk and jesus...it's everywhere.

I think that's his natural skin tone. He doesn't look drunk at all. He just looks like he's engaged in a casual conversation. Maybe it's just a hoax.

Looks like he spilled a drink in his lap. If he peed his pants it would be down his leg further.

Tom Hanks for Philadelphia.A very brave performance. So brave, that he refused to kiss his male co-star even though he was playing a gay man.
