Leo Dicaprio
Dicaprio has a better screen presence which makes him overall better in my mind.
I always thought Bale is a bit weak here, in comparison to the big names, as he's more of a technical actor and does not have the natural charisma etc that Dicaprio and many other big name actors have. (NOTE: I am not saying he's got no presence at all but you get the gist of it
)
plus, Dicaprio has been in better movies to which always helps. just in my personal opinion... Dicaprio has 4 movies amongst My Favorite Movies (i.e. My Top 186 movies) where as Bale only has one movie (i.e. The Prestige (2006) (8/10 ; within my Top 56 movies)). even my opinion aside... it's pretty safe to say Dicaprio will be more remembered long term because out of those around Dicaprio's age or younger I would say Dicaprio is the #1 and likely will be for some time to come. he's probably the closest we got to Tom Cruise (who's got THE best filmography out there and he's got great longevity to) amongst the younger generations (say under 50 years old group).
My favorite Dicaprio movies...
1.The Aviator (2004) - 7.5-8/10
-.Django Unchained (2012)
3.Gangs of New York (2002) - 7-7.5/10
4.The Departed (2006) - 7/10
so while Bale only has one, The Prestige (2006), his tops all of Dicaprio's movies but Dicaprio easily has the better filmography overall.
