While in college, Brad Pitt made a decision to pursue his dream of becoming an actor, this dream took him on a journey to leave the college and make his dreams come true. Shortly after settling in Los Angeles, he took up acting lessons, and ultimately received a small role on ‘Another World’, a television series. As a result of this modest part, the Brad Pitt films career would explode for more than 20 years. Click over here for more info on watch tv on computer.

As well as his appearance in various television series, sitcoms and dramas alike, The silver screen has featured in excess of forty Brad Pitt films to complement his acting career. Many of the Brad Pitt films in his earlier days
went largely unnoticed as opposed to his current hit movies. For instance, ‘Johnny Suede’, ‘A River Runs Through It’ and ‘Kalifornia’ from the early 1990s. It was not until his portrayal of Louis de Pointe du Lac in ‘Interview with the Vampire’ that he started to receive recognition. This film and subsequently the next three Brad Pitt films gave him a landslide of awards and nominations, not the least of which was a best supporting actor from the Golden Globes in ‘12 Monkeys’.

Brad Pitt films from 1996 until 2001’s ‘Ocean’s Eleven’ largely went unnoticed by the acting and performing community in regards to awards, nominations and box office receipts. His character in Oceans Eleven, Rusty Ryan, stimulated Brad’s career. Shortly thereafter he played Achilles in the hit movie, ‘Troy’, of which he was given the Teen Choice Award and a nomination for MTV’s Best Male Performance award, ‘Troy’ topped the box office at nearly half billion dollars. An amazing sum for Brad Pitt and so far the highest grossing film for which he was the lead actor.

Two Brad Pitt Films that failed to garner any awards or nominations since 2004 were, ‘Ocean’s Thirteen’ and ‘Mr. and Mrs. Smith’. However both of these films grossed over $100 million dollars in box office receipts.

This weekend I managed to make it to the cinema for the first time in a while. When we got there it was a toss up between Eagle Eye or Pride and Glory, both movies that I wanted to see. We went with the latter as it started sooner.

The movie has a pretty big all star cash with Edward Norton, Colin Farrell and John Voight all having major characters. The story revolves around Jimmy Egan (Farrell) a NYC Cop on the take with a bunch of fellow officers operating under the watch of his brother in law who is not fully kept in the loop. When 4 officers get slain in a shoot out Ray (Norton) is brought in to investigate after a while off the job.

I thought to myself about 40 minutes into the movie that things were moving a bit slower than I’d expected as I imagined a faster pace more action sort of movie. Although this wasn’t the case there were some great white knuckle and gasp out loud scenes and overall a real gritty movie. I don’t want to give anything in the story line away in the post but I enjoyed the movie even if it didn’t keep up with a movie such as The Departed.

But still a great movie, 3 out of 5.
