Russia is just jealous because now his tail is machine washable.

I would say it's his finest performance. Hail, Caesar! was also good. Other than that, I feel like he's basically just playing himself over and over.

Look up Clooney's comments on that movie. Even he is aware how bad it was as it was coming out, don't recall if his contract prevented him from dipping or he hoped they'd just slide under the radar like Kilmer's movie had.

You joke but even Clooney mention that when he was once held at gun point he been shot if they knew he had been Batman.

lol I love that movie for just this reason - it’s so bad it’s good and the cast is fantastic.

Medvedev is just your average town drunk so he'll probably be declaring war on pigeons soon enough, as well.
