Stephen King: Great Acting, Hayden Christensen!

A solo Hayden Christensen visits a friend’s house on Wednesday morning (November 24) in Los Angeles.

The 29-year-old Canadian actor stars in one of 2010′s Best Films, according to bestselling author Stephen King. He says that Takers, which opened over the summer, is a “satisfyingly complex cops-’n'-robbers movie [featuring] great performances from Matt Dillion, Idris Elba, and — surprising but true — Hayden Christensen.” Wow. Kudos, Hayden!

“The climax strains credulity,” adds King. “But the characters feel real, and the armored-car heist is the best action sequence I’ve seen this year.”
