I agree with you as well, firefly, about the reviewer's statement. JN was always more than just another "hunk." The problem was that Hollywood wanted to turn him into one and he resisted. When "they" couldn't put him in a neat acting category, they didn't know what to do with him. So he just got passed over. Along the lines of what Gammie said, I think of JN as having been a character actor trapped in a leading man's body. I'm hopeful that now that he's older he won't have to worry about that dilemma.
