    I've never figured out Colm Meanys appeal albeit I've not seen him in anything in recent years, perhaps that in itself says it all. Some pretty dreadful performances in equally dreadful films but whilst not a film, his performances generally in Star Trek Deep space nine was just appalling where he played the token Irish character chief O Brien, just awful cringe enducing stuff. Seems the snapper was pretty much a one hit wonder.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    Bill Paxton. Good few high profile films - Aliens, Apollo 13, Twister to name a few.

    Massively likable though.

    You wouldn't think it, but likeability goes a long way for an actor.

    Ryan Gosling.

    Every line is delivered in the same slow emotionaless devoid of life drawl .

    Appalling actor.

    I thought much the same until I saw BR 2049 and First Man.

    Very subtle actor, certainly talented.

    Hugh Grant

    "I..I...I. I'm so terribly sorry to ask this, but I find you quite attractive and, apologies for being so forthright, but it would mean the world to me if.....if you would be so kind as to have dinner with me" - *swoon*

    **** off Hugh, in real life the girl would prefer to go off with a guy who can string a sentence together. Although he was pretty good in that recent thing with Nicole kidman to be fair

    I'd say you are a professional wind up merchant. Probably on the site to keep things going.

    Russell Crowe is a terrible actor. He's actually probably a better singer than actor.

    He's a terrible singer. I guess you're referring to Le Mis, where they are all under par singers in that movie. So that doesn't say much about his acting ability:)

    I am now convinced that this site has to be full of set up merchants. Start a topic wind people up and keep it going. Seen it on so many topics. Maybe im wrong but looks that way.

    I've always found Sam Worthington to be absolutely terrible in everything I've seen him in. And thanks to James Cameron, we have four more Avatar movies to endure him in. Having said that, another of Wortho's upcoming movies has one of the best-worst premises ever; Alphas.
    When the local Great White population spirals out of control, environmentalist Gavin McDade (Worthington) is tasked with finding a natural solution to the shark problem. He tracks down the owner of a nearby Killer Whale sanctuary, whose career as an Orca trainer was cut short when she was attacked by the star of her own show. She reluctantly agrees to reintroduce a pod of juvenile Orcas into the same waters to drive out the sharks, but soon realizes there’s a female alpha Great White lurking beneath the surface capable of destroying them all. With nowhere else to turn and with his rebellious sister’s surf competition quickly approaching, he must convince the former trainer to unleash the same creature that nearly killed her in what will become the greatest battle of apex predators the oceans have ever seen.

    I would of had the opinion that Hugh Grant was a boring ‘plays the same character’ in every film he’s in type of actor, and not very good.

    That opinion changed after seeing The Gentlemen.. he was utterly brilliant in it, and I really hope it opens his career up for him and gets him away from that typecast role he always seems to play.

    Yes, I just think the delivery of her lines is very amateur, almost like watching a pantomime actor. Theres no conviction in her voice I find...

    I thought he was ok in Inception but everything else he's been woeful in, mumbling around like a robot devoid of life - he nearly ruined Warrior which is an excellent film

    He was excellent in the movie Lawless, he was also excellent in Bronson. Gained critical acclaim for his performance in Locke and again in Taboo. I think a lot of people are struggling to make the distinction between a truly "bad actor" and actors they just dont like personally. Either that or a lot of posts are trying to get a reaction.

    On the flip side Harry is a great actor.
    He's had a life spanning career playing Prince Charles' son. :pac:
