I first saw Morgan in "Driving Miss Daisy" and thought he was wonderful. Since then I've seen him in many other roles, and he's a supremely talented actor. He rocks in the part of Red in "Shawshank Redemption", and having seen "Se7en" again the other night just confirms to me how diverse he is.

He also once made a quote in an interview that I've taken to heart: "My grandmother once told me, whatever doesn't kill you only makes you stronger." He's incredible, in my book.

Big YAY. Understated, intelligent, classy, diverse. A truly great actor.

Start making better career choices, Morgan! Please! No more High Crimes and Along Came a Spiders. Make some stuff where you can really show off your range!

That's what we all thought about James Dean.

Amazing fucking actor. Extremely underrated and he's just so realistic in every one of his performances.

Big YAY!

I wouldn't exactly say that he's extremely underrated, but he does deserve more attention. An excellent actor that is fun to watch.

Yay!

Well the only movie I saw him in was Rebel Without a Cause. But he's only done 3 movies so that was one third of his movies. I thought he was very good in Rebel but not THAT great. I like him. I think he's good but I don't see what is so amazing about him.

I guess his amazing work was in Giant and that other movie he did.

I've loved Morgan Freeman in every single movie I've seen him in. The guy just comes off as the nicest most intelligent guy I've ever seen. Definately a YAY. The kind of guy you woulda loved to have a teacher in highschool or college.

I saw a guy that looked like Morgan Freeman in the mall about a week ago. He had a hat on. However, he didn't talk like him, really. I just thought I should get that out there.

Morgan Freeman is awesome. I loved him in Driving Miss Daisy, Glory and the Shawshank Redemption. I don't see why he should make movies like Bruce Almighty and Deep Impact, but that's his own career choices.

Yay!

Fantastic actor, though a little type-casted as a detective.
