A lot of critics do not like Joaquin Phoenix. A lot of people are unsure of him because he is a star but very private. I usually don't like many people from Hollywood. There are actors & actresses who I enjoy their work, but overall I don't care about people's private lives. One actor I am intrigued by however is Phoenix. He has been in a lot of good movies... and yes it may just be that he has been in two M. Night Shyamalan movies and played Johnny Cash in "Walk the Line." But today i watched the trailer for "We Own the Night" and I am pretty excited.
