Recently, Christof Waltz in Inglorious Basterds.
The rest of the cast/movie wasn't nearly as enjoyable as his scenes, even though I did like it overall.

I'd definitely agree there. The scene in the cottage at the beginning is superb. Gets you hooked right away.

Shawshank Redemption by a long shot: Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman nailed it. (Especially Morgan Freeman) He will always be one of my favorite actors.

First one that comes to mind is Anthony Hopkins in The Silence of the Lambs.  Absolutely fantastic.<snip>... but Hopkins is simply unbeatable in that role. 
Totally agree.

I love Tarantino films, but I only got half way through that one before I turned it off, for one I hate subtitles and about half the movie to that point was subtitles.
