Colin Farrell: 5 Awesome Performances and 5 That Sucked

4. Daredevil (2003)

Coming at his turn as Daredevil baddie Bullseye, Farrell suffers from the same over-the-top hamminess that shot Fright Night through the foot, except this time, he€™s allowed to be Irish. I usually prefer Farrell when he€™s allowed to speak in his native accent but in Daredevil, he€™s so throaty and unnaturally guttural that he somehow almost sounds like an American actor trying really hard to come off Oirish. Bullseye was an early misstep in Farrell€™s career and probably a defining factor in why some people just don€™t rate him as an actor. Unfortunate, when you look at some of the pictures on the other side of this list and see that he€™s capable of so much more.
