It's part of the McConnaugh-sance (Mud, Killer Joe, The Lincoln Lawyer, The Paperboy, Magic Mike, Bernie)

Can't stand Gwyneth Paltrow...it blows my mind that this woman actually has an Oscar on her mantle while her mother, who is one hundred times the actress she is, has never even been NOMINATED for an Oscar.

Really? There hasn't been a single Tom Hanks movie that you ever liked? Not one?

Couldn't disagree more regarding Goldie Hawn...I find her completely watchable most of the time. I wish she and Kurt would make a comeback.

Who the heck dislikes Tom Hanks? It's unnatural.

Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Watson have hindered my enjoyment of some otherwise fine films (X-MEN: FIRST CLASS and MY WEEK WITH MARILYN, to name two). Did not know Lawrence when I went to see the X-MEN movie, but we're supposed to believe she's the same character played by Rebecca Romijn? That's asking a lot! As for Watson, she was far too contemporary a face to be believable in a period piece like MY WEEK WITH MARILYN.

You should check out Winters Bone. I think that will make you a fan of Lawrence, and show that she has some solid acting talent. Btw Boardwalk Empire is such an awesome show, Richard Harrow is too boss.

What have you got against Morgan Freeman? I don't think I have ever read a single negative word written about Freeman on a message board before.

To put it kindly, Eastwood was miscast in PAINT YOUR WAGON.

I'll second David Spade...this guy hasn't done anything remotely funny since "The Hollywood Minute" on SNL.

Big second to Katherine Heigl...hated her on GREY'S ANATOMY and have hated every single movie performance of hers that I have seen.

Why are you multi posting in every thread?

His acting lacks......acting.

Leonardo DiCaprio
With the exception of very few movies, he sucks.
Of all the actors to be named here, Leo??? He is the best of this generation by a long shot.

Normally i go for the plot rather than who is acting. But yeah, i do try to avoid Cage! Do not like him.

Kutcher is another i think someone mentioned earlier. But his new movie Jobs is coming up. Will go watch it, just for Steve Jobs!

Fraser was quite good in GODS AND MONSTERS, but that movie belonged to McKellan and Redgrave.

I was curious as to what other Heath Ledger film you saw but, without that knowledge, I would suggest that you checkout BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN, MONSTER'S BALL, and CANDY.

Thank you for mentioning singers who try to get into acting...Beyonce tops the list for me...the woman can sing and the camera loves her but she cannot act to save her life.

Yes on both counts! :)
