I can't believe of all the movies you skip over Falling Down. Hands down his best performance.

You can tell that you're dealing with an old school industry professional if they use the word "picture" instead of "movie" or "film".

Alright. Whose idea was it to skip over "Falling Down"? In my opinion, his single best movie, and a movie almost more relevant than ever.

Gonna have to watch the GQ version of this for ‘The Game’

I’m glad Douglas’s career is aging well. A lot of prestige actors like himself seem averse to blockbuster roles but he seems to be having a lot of fun with Ant Man

Trust me...I know the feeling, Michael Douglas.

His on-screen presence is so strong. Truly a legend.

Out of all his movies, "The Game" was my favourite but also the most mind blowing truth of how the movie came out to be

@MikeMJPMUNCH 8 years ago

Where is Falling Down that is Michael Douglas' best performance. For god sake with this series you always skip over the person's best movies.

@Bob27Fat 8 years ago

Bruh they skipped China Syndrome, Chorus Line, Falling Down, The Game, Traffic, and Wonder Boys

Holy crap I just realized that Michael Douglas was involved in so many iconic movies

@SenseiDonGraham 8 years ago

Suprised 1989's Black Rain was not included in the timeline, it's one of my favorites!

It's a testament to his success that so many comments on here are "why'd you skip over [insert one of his movies here]". The man has done so many great films, it's ridiculous.

@ScarlettJ1221 8 years ago

It's crazy because I watched every single movie Michael Douglas was in, what an Icon

How could you skip The Game !?!?!??!?!!?!??!?!

Still one of the coolest guys around! He told the best story about how Kirk regarded his son’s career; when he was a teenager, Michael took a summer job at the Mobil gas station and did such a good job he was named Mobil Man of the Month. When he won the Oscar for Wall Street, Kirk said he was proud of him but he’d never beat that Mobil Man of the Month honor
