You know when you see that A list actor in the beginning of the movie and you think, oh that's so so pretending to be... Who is best at engrossing you into the character fastest? I'll share my fave later, who's yours?

Leonardo DiCaprio. When a movie of his appears, I know I am getting a great experience.
Also, Tom Hanks.
Now I think of some more. Ben Mendelsohn, Jeff Bridges, Michael Shannon

Ben Mendelsohn, Jeff Bridges, Michael Shannon Great choices DanaShelby. I had my doubts about Tom Hanks playing Fred Rogers. Fred Rogers is so well known! But sure enough something got in my eye. Great movie btw if you haven't seen it yet. Thanks

There are certain actors who can leap off the screen. Often this is not due to sheer acting ability, but something charismatic about them that puts your eyes upon them. Tom Hanks has been mentioned and many of the old movie stars had this quality. Gary Oldman and Emma Stone also do it for me. "Something charismatic".... Good point PaulsLaugh I mean we know why some actors get all the great roles, they're sure box office draws but sometimes it seems counterintuitive. When John Travolta was doing 35 movies a year ( seemingly ) I would think, ok, let's see if this guy can sweep me off my disbelief. And often he didn't But for me Denzel Washington always has, he's also had a crazy career. At first I'm ..let's see.. again, but sure enough two words in, I'm hooked. I think you're absolutely right with Gary Oldman, fantastic actor, but I haven't seen much with Emma Stone. Thanks for your input!
