I take your Rutger Hauer and raise you a Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman and Liam Neeson. Though the important question is really whether Christian Bale is any good. Must sit down and watch "Reign of Fire"; it's on my to-be-watched list anyway. The other important questions are whether Michael Caine and Rutger Hauer are having off-days or not.
Not familiar with Oldman, but yes, Hauer can do the sinister (if it's not an off-day: he wasn't that good in Buffy The Vampire Slayer (the original movie)) and the creepy.
Though I acutally prefer Hauer when he's doing the (anti-)hero than the villain. Probably because his villians are too scary!
