Philip Seymour Hoffman is on another level entirely. He makes Robert fucking Deniro look like just another actor.
Philip Seymour Hoffman is so sexy in drag and I'd like to add an extra half star because even if it's full of flaws and clichés, the film has the merit of shining a light on gender transition which also allows us to use humor and caricature in this current homophobia. And if it works for me, it's only thanks to the Robert De Niro/Philip Seymour Hoffman duo, and too bad the plot sucks, because Joel Schumacher could have made better use of these two legendary actors, with the added strength of a well-measured sense of humor about the human condition in general.
Philip Seymour Hoffman could have easily been offensive with his performance but he's so tender with the role. He bounces off De Niro very well in this typical storyline. It is all about the acting but it's still a good watch.
As Far from Flawless as one could get! Had the look and feel of an amatuer production! While both Philip Seymour Hoffman and Robert De Niro gave exhilarating performances it was Philip Seymour Hoffman whom stole the show with his incredibly funny yet poignant portrayal of a pre-op drag queen!
Philip Seymour Hoffman is embarrassingly good in this. Too bad the movie can't match him.
