Top 5 Movie Star Impressions

Time for another top 5 list !

I’m always impressed when someone can pull off a good impersonation of a famous person. Usually the targets are politicians, which most of us have seen, but you rarely see good impressions of movie stars. OK we’ve seen loads of Clint Eastwood, Arnold and Stallone impressions – those are pretty straightforward. But here are 5 clips which are so good, you’ll swear its the real actor. Oh and you’ll be laughing too !

1. Impersonation of : Tom Cruise

This is taken from the comedy Superhero Movie. The movie was one of the worst I have ever seen – except for this 2 minute clip of genius. The guy does Tom Cruise to perfection – complete with the laugh.

2. Impersonation of : Nicolas Cage

Nicolas Cage is tough actor to impersonate but this guy does a great job, especially the way he moves his body as he talks !

3. Impersonation of : Al Pacino

What I like about this clip (apart from the excellent impersonation of Al Pacino) is the angle the comedian uses. Al Pacino doing GPS - Brilliant ! Oh and there’s also an OK Jay Leno impression and a wonderful DeNiro at the end to the clip.(Warning : Some bad language)

4. Impression of : Denzel Washington

The ultimate Denzel Washington impression ! Its based on his performance from Training Day and you could so easily mistake him for the character Denzel played in the movie, especially with the way he deals with the complaint in the sketch. There are also impressions of Morgan Freeman, Chris Rock and Bernie Mac. But, as you can see from the crowd’s reaction, its the Denzel impression that steals the show. (Warning: There’s quite a bit of bad language, so don’t play it too loud in the office :) )

 5.  Impression of : Too many to mention !!

What is amazing about this clip is Kevin Spacey’s talent as an impersonator.  We all know him as being a good actor but some of the impressions in this clip (and there are so many) are outstanding. Christopher Walken, Al Pacino, Jimmy Stewart, Brando – they’re all there and they’re all great. What is more, its not just the voice, its the mannerisms, the facial expressions that make it so believable.

    Glad you liked it ! Tom Cruise is unbelievably good – apparently its a spoof of the Scientology interview he gave a couple years ago which I never saw but heard a lot about.

    Denzel Washington’s laugh is just like the one from Training Day.
