3 ‘The whale’
Beyond the possible awards, with the Oscar in the lead, What will forever go down in film history is Brendan Fraser’s performance in ‘The Whale’.

4 “The Deadpan American”
‘The Impassive American’, an exceptional remake of the film of the same name directed by the essential Joseph L. Mankiewicz in the late 1950s, was an enjoyment on many levels, including visual and narrative, but no one escapes the fact that it is the greatest strength resided in the cast. In that field, accompanying an impressive Michael Caine, Brendan Fraser has offered exemplary work in his containment and above all, self-awareness. In other words, the actor knew he was facing a giant in a state of inspiration, so he dedicated himself to using each of his scenes to shine and have fun at the same time. An interpretative choice as intelligent as it is effective.

5 “Finding Eve”
Upon its premiere, ‘Buscando a Eva’ was met with more sticks than applause from the critics and an almost total disinterest from the audience. However, the passage of time has played in favor of this comedy full of bad milk, especially in a more than remarkable first installment, bringing it closer to the coveted terrain of the cult. Among its most positive aspects stands out, of course, the A very dedicated performance by a Brendan Fraser who seems to fully enjoy his character.

A triumph of brilliant ideas, infallible gags and memorable characters, even in the flesh, which can be enjoyed without the possibility of stopping. An exhilarating, chaotic fest in love with the accelerator that Brendan Fraser joins with all the energy in the world.

7 ‘Last Chance’
Though it went largely unnoticed at the time, possibly motivated by the fact that none of its major stars were having a very popular moment, ‘Last Chance’ is one of those Brendan Fraser films and performances that deserve to be saved from oblivion. And it’s not like there’s anything particularly memorable about it, but this is a comedy that works great and it’s easy to see how much he knows, especially in all the moments shared on screen by the aforementioned Fraser and a great Michael Keaton.
8 “Ink Heart”
With a splendid cast at the forefront, a wonderful set design and a fantasy story that reveals its cards and surprises with moderate success, ‘Inkheart’ is another of those unjustly forgotten films that starred Brendan Fraser. . bad luck in business for a tremendously funny tape from its prologue which, moreover, has aged really well, still remaining a remarkable entertainment for all the family.

9 “No sudden movement”
Before his acclaimed comeback with ‘The Whale’ broke out, Brendan Fraser had already recently appeared in an extraordinary film: ‘No sudden movement’. Directed with tons of talent by maestro Steven Soderbergh, this fabulous thriller was consistently on time and on form, delivering scenes worthy of a standing ovation and a range of performances that oozed magnetism and talent in every take. In the latter area, Fraser, while occupying a secondary position, has already shown that he is ready to return in a big way.
10 “George of the Jungle”
It is a good movie? I’m afraid not. Has it improved over time? Same answer. Is it a multi-generational classic that we cried with laughter with in our earliest childhood? Doubt offends. “George of the Jungle” is a happy place to come back to from time to time, if only to remember the laughs that made us grow up. It’s not his best film, let alone his most inspired performance, but for millions of people, Brendan Fraser will always be (our) ‘George of the Jungle’.

And it is that, beyond a few tapes that should be claimed with particular enthusiasm to avoid its unjust fall into oblivion, in Fraser’s career we find several titles that could well be considered classics. And a good handful of great performances that demonstrate the value of an actor with presence and talent.
Throughout this special, we highlight the American performer’s ability to shine in fields ranging from adventure to drama, through comedy, fantasy or thriller. Starting with each of them, Brendan Fraser stands as one of the outstanding virtues of this tape set Without him, they would have been much worse. Glad I put it back into play.
