I did enjoy two of his roles: in Insomnia and in Dead Again. Especially the latter.<br /><br />I would not mind seeing Oceans 12, although I have heard it doesn't measure up at all to Oceans 11. Then I would watch Oceans 13, which I have heard is better.<br /><br />TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-83925318812316230672014-09-02T23:10:05.961-07:002014-09-02T23:10:05.961-07:00Prashant, ditto on Doubtfire, it's got to be d...Prashant, ditto on Doubtfire, it's got to be double digits. I can't recall the last Martin film I saw, though I'd still pick him over Hawn if the choice was between the two of them. col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-59303393563945394212014-09-02T23:07:04.003-07:002014-09-02T23:07:04.003-07:00Margot, I envy you having seen his stand-up comedy...Margot, I envy you having seen his stand-up comedy. I've never seen that aspect of his talent.

Williams was terrific in the former. I intend to see "Insomnia" and "The Fisher King." I have seen "Housesitter," too, though frankly I no longer watch Martin's films as I used to. His roles are stereotype.Prashant C.
