10 Best Shia LaBeouf Film Performances
2. Honey Boy
Honey Boy is a very special movie when it comes to LaBeouf's robust catalog. Not only is the story based on the actor's turbulent upbringing, but it was also written by LaBeouf. If that wasn't already personal enough, the film also shows him stepping into the clown shoes of his vulgar father (literally).
The intensity and vitriol that Shia captures through the vessel of his father feel all too real. This is not only one of the best performances that he has ever given, but he is literally exorcising his demons on the screen right in front of our eyes. It is a truly unique experience that is a must-watch for all and offers a closer glimpse at the way the actor came up.
This film stands incredibly on its own, yet it also offers something special for fans of Even Stevens. Throughout the run time there are loose recreations of famous scenes from the show, and while they are not exactly like they were on Disney, they are sure to spark nostalgia for even casual fans of the kids' show.
