6 Best Tom Hardy Movies

Whether you like Tom Hardy for his physique, good looks, sense of humour, acting abilities, comedic timing or witty personality – you can’t deny the fact that this man is an absolute gem. He’s a great example of an actor doing his best and refusing to be pigeonholed into a specific character. It’s easy to imagine how he could be seen as just a mountain of muscles, but no, Tom is so much more than that. He’s smart, he’s funny, he’s emotional and he’s fit as hell. Here are some of the best Tom Hardy movies that showcase all of his different sides and talents.

1. The Dark Knight Rises

This is probably the movie thanks to which many were exposed to the wonder that is Tom Hardy. The role of Bane is definitely a physical one as well as an emotional. You’d think that acting with most of your face covered would be hard, but Tom managed it just fine. In fact, he did such a good job, that even despite the weird contraption on his face, we got every nuance of his performance not only through dialogue but also through his voice and his movements.

2. Legend

A great movie that has all the best elements of drama, crime thriller and comedy. It’s truly entertaining and you’re getting the double whammy of Tom Hardy because he plays two characters in it. He plays twin brothers, they’re often both in the scene and it’s amazing to see him portray them so differently that you actually believe it’s two different people on screen.
