Movie Fans Are Coming To Brendan Fraser's Defense

Written by Marcus Reynolds — 0 Views

Taylor Swift may have beaten Martin Scorsese at the box office this weekend, but that's not stopping film fans from talking about his newest feature, Killers of the Flower Moon. The movie is getting rave reviews and is currently up on Rotten Tomatoes with a 92% critics score and 84% audience score. ComicBook.com gave the movie a 4.5 out of 5 and called it "another masterpiece" by Scorsese. The movie stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro, and Lily Gladstone in addition to many other familiar faces. One such actor is Oscar-winner Brendan Fraser

While Fraser isn't in the movie much, he does give a memorable performance. In fact, ComicBook.com's review pointed out that "he uses each second to command the screen." Apparently, a few people have taken to social media to criticize the actor's performance, but if you search his name on Twitter, you'll mostly find people coming to the star's defense.

People are not only defending Brendan Fraser's performance in Killers of the Flower Moon, they are calling it a highlight of the film. You can check out some of the posts praising Frasier below...

He Knows

killers of the flower moon is horrifying and tragic and completely undeniable. and brendan fraser understands better than anyone that when you have a two scene role as a lawyer in an otherwise understated and intimate film you need to be jarringly hammy

Real

In Killers of the Flower Moon Brendan Fraser plays a loud hacky lawyer desperate to win a case by coercing a witness to recant his testimony on a case heavily dependent on witness testimony. So Fraser performs the role as a loud, hacky lawyer who yells. Real lawyers do this.

Fun Take

the people are divided on Brendan Fraser’s performance, but what they don’t understand is he’s playing a Coen Brothers character in a Martin Scorsese movie

In Conclusion

Not gonna push this, but as Brendan Fraser single-handedly making Killers of the Flower Moon trending on its opening day with his 7 minute screentime. Can we seriously start a campaign for his best-supporting role this year? #BrendanFraser #KOTFM
