Whether he was true to the character or not aside, I've always been a bit bothered by the fact that I really feel like he's Jack Nicholson playing Jack Nicholson. Mind you, he always seems to be playing slight variations s of the same character to me. Not to take too much away from his performance because while I don't care for it that much, it was probably the best we had in the role up to that point so it wasn't entirely unsuccessful in my eyes.
