I was thinking about Great actors and actresses in BAD movies. I'm talking about just a tremendous talent taking a questionable role.

Which GREAT actors can you think of that made TERRIBLE TERRIBLE movies?

My first vote is Sean Connery and ZARDOZ...



What's your vote?

[CB2001]

Sandrine Holt in Starship Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation

But then again, that's just my opinion.

 

[firesprite]

John Rhys Davies in the three or four SyFy "original" movies he's done. It boggles my mind to see him in these horrible, horrible films.

 

[Shade88]

Liam Neeson in The phantom menace.

 

[JD]

Liam Neeson in Batman Begins.

Fixed that for you. Must've been typo or something...

 

[SmilingOtter]

Sean Connery in Highlander 2
Sean Connery in Dragonheart
Sean Connery in The Avengers
Sean Connery in First Knight

 

[Wes R]

Charleton Heston in the Burton POTA.
Arnie in most of his movies after T2 (kindergarten Cop anyone?)
Kirk Douglas in Saturn 3

 

[Rupert_Angier]

Michael Caine in Jaws 4: The Revenge.

 

[Colin Droidmilk]

Max Von Sydow in Flash Gordon

David Thewlis again for the Harry Potter films.

Hey now, a couple good movies have been listed in here. Don't you badmouth Dragonheart, that movie was my childhood.

The one that stands out most to me recently is Wolfman with Benicio Del Toro, Anthony Hopkins, etc. Pretty decent cast on that movie, absolute mess of a bad film.

Tom Hanks - The Great Buck Howard

Morgan Freeman - Deep Impact

Julia Roberts - The Mexican

Samuel L. Jackson - Snakes on a Plane

[SSgt Burton]

Sandrine Holt

Are "great" actors? :lol :wacko


Don't get me wrong- they made some pretty popular films, but to put them in the same league as Tom Hanks or Kirk Douglas? :confused


My vote...

Al Pacino, Dustin Hoffman, and James Caan---

In "Dick Tracy". :thumbsdown

More or less every single movie Nic Cage has ever made. Man that guy has talent to spare, but he takes on a lotta crappy "gotta pay the bills" type dreck. I'd say I actually like about 10% of his films.

 

[dualedge]

Liam Neeson in The phantom menace.

Ditto and I'd add to that Natalie Portman and Ewan MacGregor, both of whom are great actors too but even a great actor can't redeem wooden dialogue.

 

[jedi573]

Al Pacino in Simone.

Most of the " great " actors have left us already. Slim pick'ns these days. Tom Hanks , Morgan Freeman, Denzel are a few.
