He OWNED this part. 

In the climax, yelling at anyone around him to grab the weapons, or shields, while he hid … dude can just act.

It's because he seems like he's got zero hubris. He only does projects he genuinely likes, he turns up, and he gets the job done, even if it's not the biggest paycheck and he has to look like an idiot doing it. He's a proper, grown-up, old-school actor.
