Some exceptions like those latter yrf movies exist where both the story and characters were substandard. But apart from those I have loved his acting immensely. I am glad that he didn't try to show pretentious external angst---- which is considered as "profound" by a particular section of men in Gullyboy. He enacted the role of a introverted but eager marginalized young guy perfectly without having to have a 360 degree change to a sociable, rebellious, external angsty guy for so called profound character👏There was consistency in his performance.
Ranbir is a nice actor but his roles and movies like Rockstar, Tamasha etc. are lauded as "Deep Cinema" as if playing manchild role and using Ar Rahman's excellent music while showing society hating rebellious streak and overcomplication and external angst (add Rumi's quotes, too) = " Profound and Intense Role" 😆That particular oversmart section will often call us Iacking intelligence to understand such role🤣as if we have not been appreciating truly brillant works of Satyajit Ray and the likes and can differentiate between intelligent cinema and faux deep cinema. I liked his acting in Barfi but seriously Imtiaz Ali's movies are regarded as having immense depth by those especially who have not encoutered ocean so they consider a pond as being deep.
He either overacts or underacts. There is no balance.
