The Master (greatest performance of last decade), but his performance in Her is an extremely close second. People don't talk enough about the soulful depths he achieves in that film.

I was looking at this at an angle and thought I saw mass voting on The Immigrant (rather than The Master) and was about to blow a gasket.

Gladiator, for me. Then Two Lovers or Walk the Line. Aside from the spectacular processing scene, I don't understand the passion for Joaquin in The Master. There's like 2 hours more of nothing.  Buffalo Soldiers should be on this list too. |

The Master or Gladiator. And as great as he is, he isn't even the MVP in any of these.  |

The Master or Gladiator. And as great as he is, he isn't even the MVP in any of these. You actually make a very good point. Those are arguably his top 2 performances, yet I do think Hoffman and Crowe were best in show. Phoenix is still great in those movies though. |

The Master which is a top 5 performance of the decade........I'm a little mixed on You Were Never Really Here both as a performance and a film. I don't really "like" Lynne Ramsey to be honest though I admire some things in her work......and Phoenix is at least partially great there but I wasn't as impressed as some are with that one.
Most Underrated: I think Don't Worry, He Won't Get Far On Foot has something different from his usual turns.
Phoenix and PSH are to me the only 2 American actors since the "Big 4" of the 1970s (Nicholson/DePac/Dustin Hoffman) that can rival them .........in some ways at least - on a talent level I mean ....so seeing them in peak form in The Master is pretty thrilling for acting fans.
