10 Most Outstanding Paddy Considine Performances

3. Journeyman

This 2017 boxing drama – written and directed by Considine – has an unforgettable central performance, despite the film’s slightly muted response from critics.

Considine plays Matty Burton, a championship boxer who suffers a devastating brain injury after defending his title.

The scenes between Matty and his wife are among the film’s best and most difficult to watch, as he struggles to reconnect with his former self and understand his new personality. While the film may have its flaws, Considine is in superb form as a broken man facing the fight of his life.
