Tommy Riley

Tommy Riley
  • TV Show/Movie Appeared: Gladiator (1992)
  • Actor/Actress: James Marshall
  • Why you should vote:: We have always had a soft spot for Brian Dennehy, and James Marshall took him out in the end.
  • Why you should not vote:: This is clearly a fast forward to the fights kind of film.
  • The acting wasn’t great, and the plot was paper thin, but guilty pleasures abound in watching Tommy Riley (James Marshall). “Gladiator” (and we are not talking about the Russell Crowe Oscar winning film). Although the acting wasn’t great, the fights were entertaining, and the corn-fed looking Marshall was the lead in the flick. That is enough for us to put him on the ballot.
