Sherlock would not be bored if Khan was a case! Imagine him studying Khan's superblood, his DNA, the whole space-thing... Moffat! Gatiss! Where are you? We need to see this..! :D
I discovered him with Sherlock ; first impression : "what a weird face!!" ...10 minutes later, i was Hypnotised by him!! His presence, his voice are incredible !!!
Katherine S I have a friend who is a lot like Sherlock and today we were talking and he just in a rushed tone asked me to be quiet I immediately shut up and waited a few seconds. I then asked in a whisper “what’s going one why do I need to be quiet?” We were talking over the phone btw so for all I knew he was getting robbed or something. Then he calmly replied “no reason I just wanted you to stop.
Nobody can replace Rickman. The harry potter films are Iconic, there is no need to REMAKE them. Severus snape will forever be Rickman, the same way Harry will always be Daniel Radcliffe. Don't piss off the fans bro
+Anina Holbek The closest I've ever got (and probably will ever get) to seeing him live on stage was via filmed stage performances of both of those plays that were shown at a local movie theater.
I flew myself and my husband into London from Sweden to see his Hamlet. Worth every penny and a memory to last a lifetime. He is such a magnetic performer, Ill never forget it.
Hey, don’t know if you’re still interested in seeing him in Frankenstein but the UA-cam channel -National theatre- has the full version on right now and this until Thursday evening, with Benedict starring as the creature. On Friday you can watch Benedict’s performance as Frankenstein himself. Hope this helps you out!
The imitation game is one of my favorite movies ever! Benedict was brilliant in the role of Alan Turing!! But nothing can be compared to Sherlock, that is the best show I've seen in my life, his acting was just perfect ❤
I first found out about Cumberbatch from Doctor Strange, and now that I have finished all the Sherlock episodes at the moment... *Sniffle* I need to find a good movie with him in it!!! 😭
Sherlock is THE best tv show that I have EVER watched. And it will always be first. Hes the best actor in the world and I love him. He can also cry on cue
As a huge fan of Cumberbatch, I very much approve this list. Makes me want to watch the other movies he's been in. I cought a glimpse of his role in Murder is Easy, a much, much older and more obscure film he's been in but very well done as always from the batch of cumber XP
WatchMojoUK I also agree. I loved this list. All were astounding performances. However, I personally, would put the imitation game 1st, simply because although sherlock is a cooler performance, the imitation game and his performance had emotion. Raw, undefined emotion. One of the only two movies to make me cry.
I absolutely love his voice. I think it's one of the main things, why are his performances so incredible. And the reason, why I always watch Sherlock in original. My sister watched it with dabing and I was just: "How can you???!!!" (the same I feel about Christopher Lee, another great voice and the best for Saruman).
YES!!! Alan Turing and Sherlock are my favourites, Benedict played them brilliantly. What a perfect top 2, he deserved an Oscar for Alan Turing what an amazing man to portray. ❤️
I don't know is it me or anything else..... I hardly understand rdj's accent. When I read sharlok homes my imagination of this detective mostly go to new modern version of sharlok character. Cumberbatch is awesome in this character.
My Top Ten: 1) Alan Turing (The Imitation Game, the scene where he says "I don't want to be alone" and breaks down crying shatters my heart every damn time.) 2) Patrick Melrose (Patrick Melrose, one of Bennie's most intense roles and the funeral scene from the finale just... Wow!) 3) Khan (Star Trek Into Darkness, Bennie's best villain IMO.) 4) Smaug (The Hobbit trilogy, the motion capture alone sent chills down my spine.) 5) Sherlock Holmes (Sherlock, this is Bennie's signature role and for damn good reason. Despite its issues, The Final Problem contains some of his finest work on the show.) 6) Shere Khan (Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle, proof that Disney were fucking stupid for not casting Bennie as Scar in the Lion King remake.) 7) James (Third Star, the scream when he falls during a hike still haunts my nightmares.) 8) Martin Creiff (Cabin Pressure, Bennie at his funniest.) 9) Peter (Tinker Tailor Solider Spy, the scene where Peter has to end things with his partner hurts.) 10) Islington (Neverwhere, one of the best transitions from sweetheart to sinister I think any actor has done.)
Benedict was fantastic in Third Star, Parade's End, Van Gogh: Painted with Words and Stuart: A Life Backwards. Not too mention the short movies Inseparable and Little Favour.
A very "versatile" actor, he impersonates many different characters so well, it's amazing. Recently I've watched Third Star and I've just finished Sherlock. He truly knows what he's doing 🌟
Poor guy. When his time comes (which I hope is decades away), the retrospective video would probably show a clip of _Sherlock_ first, then a clip of him trying to say "peng-wengs". 🙂
John: What the, HELL are you doing? Sherlock: *Shoots wall*... Bored. John: What!? Sherlock: BORED... *Shots wall* BORED... *Shots wall* BORED! John: *Takes gun away* This scene is hilarious. This Sherlock scene makes me laugh every time.
Okay I understand Sherlock is amazing and he's incredible in it, but the imitation game should be 1, simple as that. How he managed to create smaug should also earn that role a higher place in the list. Otherwise a really good list
I love BBC's Sherlock, but for me, one of his best performances will always be The Imitation Game, especially towards the end, with Kiera Knightley, when he reveals the hormone treatment he's undergoing. That scene never fails to bring me to tears.
I don't know why but i really find him attractive. Every character he plays, he can bring out the main character charm no matter what. He just catches all the attention, even while acting with people like chris homesworth.
Im here 4 years late having just seen Power of The Dog. He has honestly become on of my favorite actors ever. Im endlessly impressed and cant wait to see what he does next!
I love Benedict- he is an incredible actor and I love every role I've seen him in because no matter what, he portrays the charecter so freaking well! And like someone else in this comment section said, 'Dr. Strange introduced me to him, Sherlock made me love him' I wholeheartedly agree with this list
I'll always remember Benedict Cumberbatch as Alan Turing, even if I've discovered him as Sherlock Holmes. His heartbreaking performance in The Imitation Game was truly incredible, and will follow me each time I'll see this actor in a movie or serie.
He also really killed it as Julian Assange in the fifth estate (even though the film itself didnt convince me, bis performance was outstanding, as usual), as James in third star and as Stephen Ezard in The last enemy (highly recommend!)
Cumberbatch, a man who has taken the mantle of 3 historical figures(Alan Turing,Stephen Hawking, and William Pitt) that I know of,and taken multiple iconic roles,and never back down,though I would like a mention of him as William Pitt in 2006's "Amazing Grace"
It didn't make this list but 'Third Star' is my favorite film and my favorite Cumberbatch role ever. He plays the anger and desperation of a dying man impeccably. And Hugh Bonneville makes a really crazy cameo - LOVE IT!
Who would win in a game of Cumberbatch wits - Sherlock or Khan?
Sherlock. Khan wasn't the witty insulting sort.
Sherlock would not be bored if Khan was a case! Imagine him studying Khan's superblood, his DNA, the whole space-thing...
Moffat! Gatiss! Where are you? We need to see this..! :D
except the space thing..he might delete that, solar system and sherlock don't mix 😂😂😂
WatchMojoUK it's not master strange or Mr strange it's Dr strange
Sherlock, hands down! ;)
Somebody give this man an oscar
Yes please
Yes!!!!... He is an excellent actor!!!.. He is amazing!!
You mean he hasn’t won an Oscar yet?
has he not won any oscar?
@@chewbacca5197 I don't Know
I'm always going to know Benedict as Sherlock!
Steph V.D. I'm going to remember him as dr.strange
For me; between Sherlock & Dr Strange
Same
Same
Me too. He'll always be SH..
BBC’s Sherlock is by far the only and best Sherlock adaptation ever. Nuff said.
RDJ was good,but I feel Benedict executed the role superfluously.
Yeah and it feels the closest in style and generally feeling to the books which is nice too
Rdj is forever tony stark
Rachel Hally we’ll define forever haha
BBC's Sherlock sucked. Look up Hbomberguy showing why.
Superfluously? Wrong word I think.
"Anderson, don't talk out aloud - you lower the IQ of the whole street"
Makes me laugh every time :)
YES!
still my fav quote from sherlock--
Same XD
one of the best lines in tv history
YES
“stop talking, it’s making me aware of your existence.”
most iconic sherlock line ever
**"Elementary, my dear Watson" would like to know your location**
Doctor Strange introduced him to me.
Sherlock Holmes made me love him.. :)
SAME
Same
Amazing Grace made both for me;) I love him long time ago before it was cool;D
Same here!
SAMEEEE
I am Sherlocked
Yesss!
This hiatus makes me adore him so much !!!! ❤
Yaaaassssss!
My favorite part 😍
Yass, that's what my lockscreen says!! 😂❤
SHERLOCK IS ALWAYS GONNA BE NUMBER 1
Strange Things OBVIOUSLY
Depends on the future of Dr. Strange
But as of now I agree
I'm a huge fan and I must say his performance in Patrick Melrose beats Sherlock's. I couldn't believe and he still did it.
Patrick Melrose had yet to come out. I personally think multiple performances beat Sherlock. Frankenstein, Parade’s End, and Imitation Game included.
"Number 1: Sherlock Holmes". WHO WOULDVE GUESSED
Min Tram shocked picachu
NO SPOILER
Everyone who came here
amazing deduction
@Irida Shut up Watson.
He's absolutely astounding in 'The Imitation Game'! Wows me every time how utterly amazing that film is!
It was amazing love the film
I just finished watching it and now I’m emotional. It was VERY good but...
*emotional*
@@jjager89 me too
I didn't watch it yet, but I know I will
That's my all time favourite.
Of course Sherlock is first ♥
I discovered him with Sherlock ;
first impression : "what a weird face!!"
...10 minutes later, i was Hypnotised by him!! His presence, his voice are incredible !!!
"Anderson, don't talk out loud. You lower the IQ of the whole street." XD XD XD
Katherine S I have a friend who is a lot like Sherlock and today we were talking and he just in a rushed tone asked me to be quiet

This is so iconic.
İconic 💞
They should cast him as 'Severus Snape' if they ever do a remake of the harry potter series
Siddharth Bhatnagar Read the book, you're good. 👍
Or just watch him and Jimmy Kimmel impersonate Alan Rickman.
Nobody can replace Rickman. The harry potter films are Iconic, there is no need to REMAKE them. Severus snape will forever be Rickman, the same way Harry will always be Daniel Radcliffe. Don't piss off the fans bro
We dont want movies again , Maybe TV Show
Can’t beat Alan Rickman
Life goal: To see Benedict in a Theatre performance. The bits and pieces I've seen from Frankenstein and Hamlet are stunning.
+Anina Holbek The closest I've ever got (and probably will ever get) to seeing him live on stage was via filmed stage performances of both of those plays that were shown at a local movie theater.
Anina Holbek The Frankenstein is definitely the best, even in a remote view. Can't imagine watching it in a TV though.
I flew myself and my husband into London from Sweden to see his Hamlet. Worth every penny and a memory to last a lifetime. He is such a magnetic performer, Ill never forget it.
I hate the fact that I don't live in London bcuz I can't watch his amazing theatre performances. Damn it!
Hey, don’t know if you’re still interested in seeing him in Frankenstein but the UA-cam channel -National theatre- has the full version on right now and this until Thursday evening, with Benedict starring as the creature. On Friday you can watch Benedict’s performance as Frankenstein himself. Hope this helps you out!
Sherlock ❤👌
The imitation game is one of my favorite movies ever! Benedict was brilliant in the role of Alan Turing!!
But nothing can be compared to Sherlock, that is the best show I've seen in my life, his acting was just perfect ❤
Cumberbatch aces whatever roles he plays, it would take 2 or 3 playlists to list all his “Top Performances”. 😍
LucienSabre Absolutely agree!
And then you would have mentioned all the movies in which he was
Benedict Cumberbatch and Eddie Redmayne the best actors in the world
Apple Dinosaurs Wow that's so true
Apple Dinosaurs yes of course they are!!!
Totally agree 😍😍😍
And tom Hiddleston in my opinion
Apples Apples apples you missed Martin Freeman and David Tennant 😂
I see Sherlock on the thumbnail... I click.
Same. Also I am only ablw to see Benedict as Sherlock and Dr. Strange.
Who doesnt do this
Hahaha same
I'm a simple human. Really I just see ben, I click
I first found out about Cumberbatch from Doctor Strange, and now that I have finished all the Sherlock episodes at the moment... *Sniffle* I need to find a good movie with him in it!!! 😭
same
good idea. In this list You have something to go on
"Brexit"
*dies in remembers Reichenbach Fall*
Saaame!
Love Benedict Cumberbatch. He's one of my favorite British actors.
I always wished to see him in the Harry Potter series
Honestly same
Hmmm,I wish Bond series ..
Same! I still picture him as Remus Lupin.
@@asryn96 i think severus snape..😂😂
Maybe in a movie about the marauders. I really hope there will be one!
Benedict Cumberbatch is an amazing actor. I knew Sherlock would be number 1 on this list. 😊
Admit it; we all knew it was going to be Sherlock
Sherlock is THE best tv show that I have EVER watched. And it will always be first. Hes the best actor in the world and I love him. He can also cry on cue
Not many people talk about Patrick Melrose. His acting was SOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOD. Made me cry almost every episode
As a huge fan of Cumberbatch, I very much approve this list. Makes me want to watch the other movies he's been in. I cought a glimpse of his role in Murder is Easy, a much, much older and more obscure film he's been in but very well done as always from the batch of cumber XP
Takashi 125 Glad you liked the video :) what's your favourite of his from the list?
His role as Khan Hands down. The very first Movie I saw him star in and he instantly became my most favorite actor.
WatchMojoUK I also agree. I loved this list. All were astounding performances. However, I personally, would put the imitation game 1st, simply because although sherlock is a cooler performance, the imitation game and his performance had emotion. Raw, undefined emotion. One of the only two movies to make me cry.
Doctor Strange could examine me anytime...😉
Me
Hehehe 😉 me two.
Yes I’d find his help if my brain was ever damaged very helpful. What a nice thing to point out. 😇
Sameee
And me
My top 3:
3:
2:
1: Doctor Strange, Smaug, Sherlock Holmes. Sorry, couldn't choose.
Also, why is Khan higher than Smaug?
Have you even see STID? He makes that character ideal!
*Is funny that he was also Dormamu*
Dragos really?
@@noellesteven3619 yes really,you can check
What
@@mg-cx5tv Yep. That is true.
@Gud Stuf motion capture 😹😹like he did with smaug
I watched the imitation game the other day and really enjoyed it!!
Kitkat Moon I just finished it about 1hour before the video
I've watched The Imitation Game maybe three times (one at the Cinema). Just love it, may watch it again on Netflix! Cumberbatch is awesome as Turing!
Watched it last year, fell in love!
Kaz Brekker same
Me too!!!!
Sherlock and Steven strange will always have a place in my heart
Patrick Melrose ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Definitely one of his finest performances!!
ayushi yup
I absolutely love his voice. I think it's one of the main things, why are his performances so incredible. And the reason, why I always watch Sherlock in original. My sister watched it with dabing and I was just: "How can you???!!!" (the same I feel about Christopher Lee, another great voice and the best for Saruman).
Exactly his voice is awesome
He’s an amazing actor that deserving an Oscar , he had all these things that calls Talent ❤
Benedict: starts talking
Breathe :* left the chat
Oxygen: *am I joke to you?
Whatever the thing is Sherlock is best....... And Benedict played it best
YES!!! Alan Turing and Sherlock are my favourites, Benedict played them brilliantly. What a perfect top 2, he deserved an Oscar for Alan Turing what an amazing man to portray. ❤️
Flipping love benedict cumberbatch 😍😍
Who likes benedict more than rdj :)
I don't know is it me or anything else..... I hardly understand rdj's accent. When I read sharlok homes my imagination of this detective mostly go to new modern version of sharlok character. Cumberbatch is awesome in this character.
FATIMA ISLAM RDJ isn't British while Benedict is lmao
I love them both
MEEEEEEEEEE (as Sherlock)
I love them both lol
No matter which character he does.
It seems he is irreplaceable
Patrick Melrose should be added
yes!! he did amazing
Oh yes. It's better than Sherlock.
Totally agree. He was outstanding in that series
His performance in that absolutely blew my mind!! What a devastating life and he portrayed it brilliantly 😍😭😧
Agreed
Third Star should absolutely be on this list.
Agree!
Agreed
I know right!
yes!! brilliant acting in that role.
Yes!
My Top Ten:
1) Alan Turing (The Imitation Game, the scene where he says "I don't want to be alone" and breaks down crying shatters my heart every damn time.)
2) Patrick Melrose (Patrick Melrose, one of Bennie's most intense roles and the funeral scene from the finale just... Wow!)

10) Islington (Neverwhere, one of the best transitions from sweetheart to sinister I think any actor has done.)
I also love him for the documentary of Vincent van Gogh
Glad you added Martin Crieff. One of the best radio shows ever. I listen to it frequently and still lol!
WatchMojoUK I've come to bargain
best comment EVER
+ASHLEY MICHEL *understood
I also liked his little appearence on "War Horse" with his mate Hiddleston :3
I do too, too small to be Top 10 though. And that’s where they met, incidentally.
Am I the only one who actually fell in love with Benedict Cumberbatch because of Doctor Strange and not Sherlock? I feel like a rare case.
not only you ,i like Benedict Cumberbatch because of these two characters too ^^
not only you, i started like him when he as doctor strange in iw
You are not alone my friend! I developed a full blown obsession after I saw doctor strange 😍 I’ve clearly been missing out!!!
I missed out on a whole lot too. Sherlock is literally only one facet of so many things I've seen him do.
I started to like him as Khan because that's where I first saw him. I didn't know his name back then.
I actually got into Benedict because of Sherlock and I agree its his number 1 performance he was A-MAY-ZING 😍👏👏👏👏
Benedict was fantastic in Third Star, Parade's End, Van Gogh: Painted with Words and Stuart: A Life Backwards. Not too mention the short movies Inseparable and Little Favour.
Patrick Melrose
i’m not ashamed i have watched all mentioned 😂
A very "versatile" actor, he impersonates many different characters so well, it's amazing. Recently I've watched Third Star and I've just finished Sherlock. He truly knows what he's doing 🌟
Benedict, so lovely, so good!
Sherlock Holmes acted by Benedict was the best done by any other it was just T H E B E S T
I absolutely adored his performance in The Imitation Game, I was sobbing when it finished.❤️
What about Classified in Penguins of Madagascar
You mean Peng-wengs of Madagascar, don't you? 😁
I do indeed!
Poor guy. When his time comes (which I hope is decades away), the retrospective video would probably show a clip of _Sherlock_ first, then a clip of him trying to say "peng-wengs". 🙂
YES OHMYGOSH
Oh my god yes!😂😂😂😂
John: What the, HELL are you doing?
Sherlock: *Shoots wall*... Bored.
John: What!?
Sherlock: BORED... *Shots wall* BORED... *Shots wall* BORED!
John: *Takes gun away*
This scene is hilarious.
This Sherlock scene makes me laugh every time.
I clicked as soon as I read Benedict Cumberbatch !!!
Sherlock is OBVIOUSLY number one. And will be forever.
Amen to that
Actually no. He continues to surpass it.
Okay I understand Sherlock is amazing and he's incredible in it, but the imitation game should be 1, simple as that. How he managed to create smaug should also earn that role a higher place in the list. Otherwise a really good list
I love Sherlock so fuckin much but The imitation game was insane
I haven't even watched this yet, all I can tell you is that I have been waiting for this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love BBC's Sherlock, but for me, one of his best performances will always be The Imitation Game, especially towards the end, with Kiera Knightley, when he reveals the hormone treatment he's undergoing. That scene never fails to bring me to tears.
Same
He is a Handsome Man. His voice is just heart melting
Absolutely love his role in Sherlock, one of my fav shows
For me Benedict is the best sherlock ever. I felt like he was born to play sherlock. It was just perfect
Top Benedict Cumberbatch performances... All Of Them ♥️♥️
Hello fan ❤️ thanks for the love and support 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️❤️ hope to see your response soon my beloved ❤️❤️💜
Let's be real here: Benedict Cumberbatch is one of the best actors of all time
I don't know why but i really find him attractive. Every character he plays, he can bring out the main character charm no matter what. He just catches all the attention, even while acting with people like chris homesworth.
Sherlock is definitely number one!!! Such great acting in that show!!!
Im here 4 years late having just seen Power of The Dog. He has honestly become on of my favorite actors ever. Im endlessly impressed and cant wait to see what he does next!
Benedict Cumberbatch is the best!!!
I love Benedict- he is an incredible actor and I love every role I've seen him in because no matter what, he portrays the charecter so freaking well! And like someone else in this comment section said, 'Dr. Strange introduced me to him, Sherlock made me love him'
I wholeheartedly agree with this list
I’m sorry but when you said “smorg” I cringed so hard my face is permanently cringed... 😂😂😂
I'll always remember Benedict Cumberbatch as Alan Turing, even if I've discovered him as Sherlock Holmes. His heartbreaking performance in The Imitation Game was truly incredible, and will follow me each time I'll see this actor in a movie or serie.
His acting process for Smaug was amazing. Deserved a way higher ranking.
my favs are: sherlock, strange, alan and smaug
Awesome, Benedict Cumberbatch is soo briliant...
Hoping for more DR. STRANGE with sir Benedict Cumberbatch 💪🏼
Christopher Tiejens from Parade’s End deserves to be here!
I totally agree
Agree
t i e t j e n s 💖
Yes!! He was soooooo brilliant in "Parade's End"!
ABSOLUTELY!
He also really killed it as Julian Assange in the fifth estate (even though the film itself didnt convince me, bis performance was outstanding, as usual), as James in third star and as Stephen Ezard in The last enemy (highly recommend!)
I'm so glad they put his role in Immitation Game at 2- that was my favorite
Love him as Sherlock...my all time favorite!
I am Sherlocked Forever❤❤❤
He was incredible in sherlock
Patrick Melrose is up on the list now!
I loved
Benedict in Patrick Melrose....especially the first and last parts. Sherlock is so fabulous also.
Nobody else will ever be able to depict Sherlock Holmes as well as Benedict cumberbatch
I love Sherlock! 221B
Sherlock is literally the best tv show I have EVER watched. I knew it had to be number one
War Horse and Third Star should be at least an honourable mention...
As specialy Third Star. My favourite movie of all time!
I thought I was the only one! my favorite movie evah!
Edit: Patrick Merlose > everything he has done so far, and it's a Sherlock fan speaking ^^
They should do one of these for Tom Hiddleston
They already did.
ua-cam.com/video/EF2FiSFBDw8/v-deo.html
Benedict Cumberbatch is truly amazing!! ♡♡♡♡♡
The power of the dog brought me here
This Man Deserves an Oscar for sure
It's so wrong to hear him speaking in a Southern accent XD
I love these top ten tributes.
Cumberbatch, a man who has taken the mantle of 3 historical figures(Alan Turing,Stephen Hawking, and William Pitt) that I know of,and taken multiple iconic roles,and never back down,though I would like a mention of him as William Pitt in 2006's "Amazing Grace"
It didn't make this list but 'Third Star' is my favorite film and my favorite Cumberbatch role ever. He plays the anger and desperation of a dying man impeccably. And Hugh Bonneville makes a really crazy cameo - LOVE IT!
parade's end & third star should be in the list. should have notable mentions as well
I need to watch a few of these! Benedict is amazing!
