MOST OVERRATED ACTOR

[burk48237]

Who do you guys think is the most overrated actor? I'll list two, Nicholas Cage - I've just seen him overplay too many rolls "Snake Eyes" was almost a laughable acting job in a serious movie!

Jack Nicholson (I can see the evil stares) I loved him in Cukoos nest but ever since then I get the feeling he's still playing that role. He always seems a little on the edge like he's about ready to get checked into an institution. When I see him it's almost like the character becomes Jack Nicholson, instead of Him becoming the character.

Bruce Willis.

 

[Blueszilla]

Nicholas Cage

+1

and Julia Roberts, I guess I just don't get it.

Bruce Willis.

+1

or else Josh Hartnett

Totally agree on Julia Roberts.
Hugh Grant - if he played in something other than a romantic comedy I might cut him some slack. Besides, who in their right mind cheats on Elizabeth Hurly?
Kevin Costner - was this guy ever good?
Billy Bob Thornton - I mean come on...his best role was playing a ******** guy. Besides, who in their right mind let's Angelina Jolie get away from them?
Chris Klein - This dip**** is from my home town. It's embarassing. I loved the movie "Say it isn't so" with Heather Graham. A hilarious movie, but when you're best role is playing a sister ****er...come on. Besides, who in their right mind lets Katie Holmes get away from them?

I'll think of more later.

Tom Hanks

FINALLY someone agrees with me on this. I thought I was all alone.

His performance on Cast Away was riveting. I wish everyone that had the ability to talk to a ball could have their sack held as much as he does. I don't think he sucks, but anything with his name on it is given an award. I think I'll start marketing 'Tom Hanks' brand anal paste and watch it fly off the shelves while the Today Show tries to interview a jar of it.

[Against Will]

Bruce Willis.

Plus one million.

Brad Pitt also gets a lot of props for being just okay.

 

[Kelly Lee]

Ben Affleck pure and simple.

Now just annoying actors that couldn't act to save their lives, Ben Stiller and Pauly Shore. Man they suck! IMO ofcourse!

 

[DaftCat]

Russell Crowe

I liked his character in this though.

 

[Mike Money]

Kevin Costner
Denzel Washington (OK, we get the point... old rich white men run the country. Why not make a movie about it?)
Will Ferrel (outside of SNL, he just is NOT funny. with the exception of old school)

 

[dcr]

Anybody and everybody on "Friends"!

[P. Aaron]

Kevin Costner

Julia Roberts, Drew Barrymore, Tom Cruise...

 

[Michael Jewels]

Ryan Phillippe, the guy that was in Cruel Intentions.

He just comes across on the screen as a big zero to me. Plus, I can't stand anyone who speaks for the most part without using contractions.

Lorraine Bracco of The Sopranos does this too.

I also have to agree with those who said Hugh Grant.

All he ever seems to do is stutter and stammer - that's acting?

Example: "I, I, I'm terribly sorry, but, but, could you try to umm, get, get me on the next flight out if it's, it's not too, too much trouble?"

Give me time, I'll think of more.

[Hollow Man]

Ben Affleck pure and simple.

And there it is.

 

[GrooveWarrior]

Russell Crowe and Keanu Reeves . . . the most pathetic actors I have ever seen!
