[@leahmccreadie8534]

If I were interviewing him I would literally say "Why are you so hot? Like are your parents Jesus?"

God I'd hate to be an actor, always having to come up with new answers for the same questions in every interview for a film your promoting and yet still looking as if you've never been asked that question before. Oh nearly forgot to say.. Michael in this is fit I'd love to be the one in one particular scene in 'Fish Tank' with him ;)

[@jjskitten]

i love his voice, its so soft yet strong at same time, i need to c him in this movie!

[@stardustring]

Yes

[@stardustring]

I'm a little obsessed with him right now. Been watching his movies. Just watched fish tank.

[@skyeswe95]

Fish tank is such a great movie.. and Michael is doing an awesome job portraying his character!

[@WendyKroy77]

Oh my god i never noticed his irish accent. He hides it so well in movies but in interviews where he is himself it comes through. I agree, what a beautiful and talented man indeed.

[@reanna5657]

the way he says his character has a couple of ‘faults’ bro since when did ‘faults’ equate to being a whole ass pedophile ..? faults are like when ur never on time or something😭

[@lehmann9487]

YES !!!! So many people didn‘t say a word about conors disgusting behavior. But as an actor you just have to sympathise with your character I guess

[@nightstorm16]

Congrats you’ve missed the point of the film. 😅

[@barbiedoll44]

@@nightstorm16 and what point may that be?

[@nightstorm16]

@@barbiedoll44 The director forbade Michael from reading the script, so that his character’s actions couldn’t be pre-meditated. It’s not a film about a predator, it’s a film about the way morality is absent in the face of abject poverty, and the fetishisation of the working class by the middle class. If you read the film as black and white, you missed the point. The point of this film is to highlight the moral grey areas created by the working class high-rise environment in the UK.

[@barbiedoll44]

@@nightstorm16 we can acknowledge that it’s a film about the divide between lower class and middle class whilst simultaneously acknowledging that his character is severely flawed. he himself knew what he was doing was wrong when he says “you’re 15.” before proceeding to kiss her. he is a grown man with a wife and kid, cheating with her not only on another woman but also taking advantage of a young girl who’s already going through the ringer. as a teenager myself i can understand from her pov why she’d desire him and think she’s in love with him, etc. but he is completely at fault. i love the film it’s a brilliantly and beautifully told story. do not try and act high and mighty as though everyone else is missing the point of the film when the majority already KNOW it’s about class, we watched it too

"poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer and what are we going to do about that?" eat the rich

[@PSYCKYO]

The poor today are richer than any poor person of the past! They get free phones that are more advanced than what put the first man on the moon!

[@eviola11]

@@PSYCKYO lol so? How is that an argument for the current economic system? You can use that as an argument in favor of US slave societies. Slaves were much better off in the 1850s than they were in the 1750s, is that an argument for slavery? That's a shit argument. Wages haven't gone up in 40 years. The bottom 50% of Americans net worth decreased by 900 billion the last 30 years. This system isn't working.

[@movieholic-92]

Now that I've read comments pointing out his excessive use of the phrase, "Y'know?" it's all I can hear when he's talking. Y'know? lol, doesn't matter. I just stare at his handsome face anyway.

[@loveharrydaily]

He says ya know and "sort of" so much in interviews. Take a shot everytime. lmfao

[@symphonyyoung5739]

2:08 damn that's a lucky cup

[@sarajasont1119]

ahah ikr

[@mrAZcardinal]

He was so freaking hot in this movie. I was torn to bits after watching this. I felt for Mia.. I want him but I can't have him. :(

[@Luna-nw7gl]

One thing: "Michael moaning on the couch sex scene" . Blows my mind. He's voice has a certain magic

[@Hippidippidora]

Makes me feel sick, she was underage and he had been fulfilling an absent father role, then he did that.... nauseating

[@Hippidippidora]

@@nfys3793 I’m not sure if it was though, I have to fast forward it because it makes me feel sick. Not sure if you are a woman or a bloke but if you’re the latter maybe reassess the situation they were in and the fact he had plied her with drink and took advantage of her vulnerabilities (age and circumstance). Sex that happens from one taking advantage of another isn’t hot.

[@thegirlinquestion]

@@Hippidippidora completely agree with you. yes fassbender is an attractive man but his character was not, he groomed poor mia. then after that awful sex scene he just leaves her on the sofa to put her pyjamas back on. sad, and definitely not hot.

[@Hippidippidora]

@@thegirlinquestion yeah thanks for the comment, nice to know there are people sensitive to mias position 😅. I do understand the differences of opinions to come extent though cause I think the director deliberately tried to make the film cast no judgement on what happened. Also I think porn nowadays does blur the line on consent because so many women are depicted as wanting to be used or getting aroused by every type of treatment they endure in videos. We deffo need better sex education in schools to push against this I feel.

[@drk7031]

@SeaEscape bet you’re boring

[@indraaguilar-cruz8492]

Omg he was so young and cute

[@davidellis5141]

My favorite film since 1997 (The Sweet Hereafter) So this is the Best film of the last 20 years. Katie Jarvis is incredible. Awesome.

[@ayannacriner7639]

His sexy and charming all at the same time. His eyes are beautiful.

[@grayartist7]

He says "you know" approx 62 times.

[@mindedchaos]

I love this film so much OMG

[@Sk8birds]

loolking into this actors work over the past half hour intersting ...was impressed by the intelligent insightful comments made in this interview regarding his views that in society we are all reposible for each other ( true ) but do we take it on board or just voice our intentions is the question and he also made some stellar empathetic and common sense comments regarding the poor and the rich ..this movie looks pretty raw with engaging thought provoking content .

[@vivavaldez87]

You know, you know, you know... you know... Sounds like this was close to the end of a long press day

[@katiequinn8130]

I disagree. He was hardly acting....

[@Eiliestl]

Very pedo thing to say.

[@umchinagirard1800]

It takes a village to raise a child... why do people have children if they resent & hate them

[@asiansual]

@Oohlaful He's German, born in Irish. But then, at an early age he moved to England. That's what I read.

[@razmataz13drums]

great man and great acting by everyone. i liked how they didnt pigeon hole him. its more believable because you can see why everyone likes the guy he's friendly and charming and seems to be just a genuinely nice guy. can i just say though that that trailer doesnt really represent the film. sure its dramatic but thats not the movie, its character driven

[@smusaful]

Amazing film. Very powerful!

[@joshuawatkins4322]

2:07 for tea-slurping action. You're welcome.

[@Lostintheshire]

@oprachik i never noticed that until you pointed it out, but he is better spoken in interviews than most actors

[@MsMorbeg]

It's an Irish thing ya know!

[@MsMorbeg]

He's Irish...it's an Irish thing.

[@Will-zm3ws]

Awesome thanks

[@asiansual]

[@laptitepucemimi]

I wish I was the thea cup

[@MsConverselover]

better 'you know' than 'like'

[@bmwarrick]

I'd point out that he does say "you know" a lot, but that would imply that I'm actually listening to him. Just can't focus with this gorgeous man in front of me :)

@def51100 Yeah, the fans are really over-exaggerating his looks. Although he certainly would make a sexier postman than the sort that work around here. I'd hit that if it ever came to my door.
