He might be good, but his desire to play world-weary adult characters is just a little too far fetched to be believable. Million $ Baby is overrated. It's a very good movie and I enjoyed it, but it wasn' the transcendant experience you'd expect from a best picture winner (like Return of the King was, or the movie that should have at least been nominated, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.) At least Morgan Freeman and Cate Blanchett won. They get my vote even if they are only reading from the phonebook while sitting on the can.
