I think his best work is Nightcrawler. It got snubbed pretty hard at the oscars. Only was nominated for original screenplay. It was a tough year though. Birdman (rightfully) dominated and Whiplash was there too.
Still Gyllenhaal put in a ton of work for Southpaw. He was jacked. Put a lot of time in the ring to move properly. Definitely an underrated boxing flick.
