>And I know this is fucked up to say but the kid was terrible, all mean glances and screaming. He annoyed me and I hoped he would die, if not at the hands of JGL/Bruce or one of the mob minions, then have Emily Blunt accidentally shoot him in the dead of night. He fucking irritated me that much.>

i thought the kids acting playing the character was actually well done, and nuanced...

there were little very subtle things that he did that i thought were really great, and then the over the top screaming stuff was...well...over the top....but i thought it actually called for that...

the kid managed to (IMO) pull-off expressing very subtle sympathetic emotions, complex adult intellect and understanding, simmering creepyness, raging anger, and of course Damien-like explosive power/scaryness....

i thought the young actor ( Pierce Gagnon ) nailed it all...

(and no, i'm not his uncle or anything like that :)
