  • Shoot me.
  • Number 9, Tommy Sweet, Crazy Heart.
  • While displaying his abilities as a character actor, Farrell also demonstrates his talent as a supporting player by propping up Jeff Bridges' Oscar-winning effort.
  • You gave me my start, Beth.
  • I think I don't remember that.
  • But I got a life too.
  • The Irishman's performance is a departure from his other work that shows he's willing to give up the spotlight when it matters and that's what makes it such a surprise.
  • Farrell manages to surprise us again when he takes the mic and can actually sing.
  • This ain't no place for the weary kind.
  • Number 8, Syracuse on Dean.
  • It's a pleasant change of pace to see Farrell tone things down and his efforts in this adult fairy tale earned him an Irish Film and Television Award.
  • He submits a moving portrayal of a sad fisherman with a sick daughter whose gloomy reality changes when he finds a woman in his net.
  • Anybody out there?
  • I need a little help.
  • While on Dean's mysterious arrival brings fantasy and hope to their lives, it's Farrell's passion and quest for redemption that touch us most.
  • How long are you staying?
  • Depends, I guess.
  • On what?
  • On you.
  • On me?
  • It depends on me, you can stay forever.
  • Number 7, Bobby Pellett, Horrible Bosses.
  • To play one of the horrible bosses, Farrell transforms into a pot-bellied balding tool with a bad coke and hooker habit.
  • Oh yeah, we gotta trim some of the fat around here.
  • Trim the, what do you mean by trim the fat?
  • I want you to fire the fat people.
  • What?
  • They're lazy and they're slow and they make me sad to look at.
  • It may be brief, but his role as part of this critically praised ensemble cast sure is memorable.
  • The actor loses himself completely in the world of the self-important Bobby Pellett.
  • Farrell's rarely seen comedic talents also help the film become one of the highest grossing black comedies ever.
  • Now I'm sneezing dust bunnies.
  • Is that diabetes?
  • I'm a pharmacist, not a doctor.
  • Is that my brain?
  • Number 6, Danny Witwer, Minority Report.
  • Though Tom Cruise is the star, Farrell more than holds his own in this Steven Spielberg sci-fi flick.
  • Someone intends to kill his boss or his wife, but they never go through with it.
  • How do the precogs tell the difference?
  • Precogs don't see what you intend to do, only what you will do.
  • As the smug Department of Justice agent who initiates the manhunt for Cruise's Captain John Anderton, Farrell brings depth to an otherwise small but significant role.
  • Daddy's in a lot of trouble, Sean.
  • Thanks to its critical acclaim and millions in box office receipts, Minority Report is also one of Farrell's most commercially successful projects.
  • Commits the murder in exactly the same way.

  • Why, do you prefer Stuart?
  • Look, a lot of people in this neighborhood know who I am.
  • Stuart Shepard, 1326 West 51st Street, 3rd floor, front.
  • Go my **** some other guy, pal.
  • While we might initially think the despicable two-timing Stu is getting what he deserves, Farrell manages to convince us otherwise as the film's plot unravels.
  • Come on, Stuart, don't disappoint me.
  • Use your imagination.
  • You'd shoot me if you got the chance, wouldn't you?
  • With a big ****ing smile on my face.
  • There's the spirit.
  • Held hostage in a phone booth by an unknown sniper, Farrell has to carry the film pretty much on his own.
  • Somehow he ends up making us feel for his character and gives us a gripping and intense thriller in the process.
  • I'm the ****ing one you want.
  • Take me.
  • This is about me.
  • Come on.
  • Number 4, Bobby Morrow, A Home at the End of the World.
  • In this drama, Farrell goes against type with a soulful role that puts him in the middle of an unconventional love triangle.
  • Do you think I'm attractive?
  • Oh, I, uh...
  • That's what I thought you were gonna ask.
  • And, yes, I...
  • Absolutely I do.
  • Adapted from the Michael Cunningham novel, A Home at the End of the World reveals a softer side of Farrell that gives credence to his versatility as an actor.

  • You should go back to Claire.
  • Aw, man, I don't want to leave you alone.
  • Number 3, private Roland Baas, Tigerland.
  • It may be a small war drama, but Tigerland makes a big impact thanks to its actors' incredible performances.
  • You are pissing your life away.
  • Well, I don't need the ****ing army and I don't need the ****ing war to tell me that, sir.
  • Much credit should be given to Farrell, who brings such humanity to his character that the role essentially launched his career.
  • While proving himself a compassionate and apt leader, Farrell also develops realistic and complex relationships with his fellow soldiers that keep us highly engrossed in the tale.
  • What else is he gonna do, send us to Vietnam?
  • We ain't made for that ****.
  • Number 2, Captain John Smith, The New World.
  • Despite disappointing box office returns, it's hard to deny that Terrence Malick's historical vision of the Jamestown settlement is one visually spectacular film.
  • At the heart of the story is Pocahontas, who develops a romance with the rugged John Smith.
  • Eyes.
  • Farrell portrays Smith with strength, power and emotion.
  • In short, everything that the Captain should and needs to be.
  • Had she not fed us, you would have starved.
  • She's been the instrument to preserve this colony from disaster.
  • Number 1, Ray in Bruges.
  • If I'd grown up on a farm and was retarded, Bruges might impress me.
  • But I didn't, so it doesn't.
  • Much of this black comedy's praise is heaped onto its cast, and for good reason.
  • As a pair of Irish hitmen in hiding, Farrell and his partner in crime Brendan Gleeson display a hell of a lot of chemistry, despite the constant bickering.
  • I mean, what if he knew karate, say?
  • You said he was a lollipop man.
  • He was a lollipop man.
  • What's a lollipop man doing on **** karate?
  • But it's Farrell's turn as the frenzied, guilt-ridden Ray that won him the Golden Globe for Best Actor.
  • So let's be honest, this hilariously dark film wouldn't be the same without him.
  • You two are weird.
  • Would you like some cocaine?
  • Do you agree with our list?
  • This is how you want to end it.
