    Who is the most unlikely film star who has made it to big time success ?

    What star do you watch and say to yourself - how the hell did they make it to the big screen ???

    Keanu Reeves springs to mind (sorry matrix fans)

    Woody Allen.

    He may be a gifted writer, but I hate his acting style.

    Sammy Davis Jr.

    Not a question of his talent, which is indisputable, but Hollywood studios weren't exactly fighting each other to get as many black Jewish disabled people in their films as they could!

    Rosie Perez!

    In case you don't know who I'm talking about she's the chick who plays Woody Harrelsons g/f in 'White Men Can't Jump' and the one in 'Do the right thing' who keeps saying 'Moookiie! Mookiee. Where you goin Mookie? When you gonna get a job Moookkiiieee?'

    She's ugly, can't act and has a voice that would have you reaching for the suicide pills if you had to listen to it for more than 90 seconds.

    To be fair I can't stand her either in most things but she was good in Fearless.

    Also - NIcole Kidman is a decent enough actress.

    I think one of the most unlikely movie stars is:

    Rob Schneider - the man should be hung, drawn and quartered. If I hear another moron going "You can do it" in that stupid voice I'll ****ing strangle them.
