Wall Street

I would've picked "Traffic" if it was in the poll.

Of the choices there, "Wall Street". Because greed is good.

Best Performance: Wall Street
Best Movie: The Game

I found his movie, The Perfect Murder, to be the most entertaining. But not sure if that's his best performance.

Where's the movie that won him the Oscar: One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest?

Best Performance: Wall Street

Best Film: Traffic

He was surprisingly good in Wonder Boys.

My first impulse was romancing the stone since he's so goddam funny and himself in that picture,

but in 2000, I believe he gave his best, most finely nuanced performance to date. Wonderboys.

i agree.
one of the best films from that decade.

he gave a good performance in WB, but the film i like him n the best would probably be Coma.
i saw the film for the first time last yr, and can't get over how 'contemporary' this film and its themes are.
for a film that is over 25 yrs old, its aged remarkably well.

The American President
Wonder Boys
Traffic
Wonder Boys
Falling Down!!!

Best Role - Gordon Gekko "Wallstreet"
Best Film - The Game (stricly my personal opinion which I know others will disagree)

The reason why Traffic is not an option is because Michael Douglas' role is not as cheif as his other films.

Keep the responses comin and let's get this poll up to 100 votes!

FALLING DOWN

Really the only movie I pull for him in.

2. The Game
3. Black Rain

Definitely War of the Roses, followed by Wall Street.

Rob

"You forgot the briefcase!!!"

-Falling Down

The man says/does everything I feel like saying/doing ( OK, except die).

Added a list of films to consider for 'other'

Basic Instinct followed closely by Wall Street and Fatal Attraction.

I know what you mean, I wish he didn't die in the end, even though I'm sure that if Schumacher and Douglas really wanted they could've made a sequel.

D-FENS! D-FENS!

other .... the american president

Closing. I've asked smirnoffski to keep his polls to 1x week.
