So disappointed but the trailers for Trainspotting 2 look utter wank

Kane i find it hard to rate comedians as actors ......mostly they're just being themselves .....exception being Jim CarreySure he has had some flops, but if you rate the likes of Ashton Kutcher ahead of him, I just don't know what to say...
How do you rate Robin Williams? Imo, he could do great comedy, but his best work was arguably in serious roles.Kane i find it hard to rate comedians as actors ......mostly they're just being themselves .....exception being Jim Carrey
The other guy that started out making great movies, but i've dropped off him since the Da Vinci Code in 2006 ......everything b4 that date i enjoyed, not so much his movies after
I think most actors if they're going to survive in the business normally have 1-2 good movies .....i was talking consistently good or bad moviesHow do you rate Robin Williams? Imo, he could do great comedy, but his best work was arguably in serious roles.
Colin Firth is another quality actor I would have in a current top-5.

Robin Williams was take him or leave him actor ......loved him in Insomnia
The other consistent failure in recent years has been Jack Black .....fine as a sidekick, but his attempts to be the main man has resulted in disaster movies
Yes seems that actors have periods of success and then putrid-ness ......definitely would have Sandler and Murphy in that categoryI'd honestly have Robin Williams in the 'consistently bad' category post 2000. Similar to a number of 80s/90s comedians who became utter s**t in the same period (Eddie Murphy, Adam Sandler come to mind)
Not going to disagree he had some misses, but he had some absolute gems too & showed he was more than a comedy actor, which was the post I was responding too.More than half of Robin Williams' comedic films were putrid
Problem with these actors is they have no diversity... it's more of the same, which becomes boring. Same goes for the likes of Hugh Grant.Yes seems that actors have periods of success and then putrid-ness ......definitely would have Sandler and Murphy in that category

Tom Hanks seems to have been the most successful comedian to transition to drama ....Carrey tried, but missed the boat ......Hugh Grant has lost his looks for Rom_Coms and tried to transition to drama a few times with the same success as Meg RyanProblem with these actors is they have no diversity... it's more of the same, which becomes boring. Same goes for the likes of Hugh Grant.
Gone Girl is one of my fave movies of the last 10 years. I thought it was brilliant. Really wish I could watch it again without knowing a thing about it.If Afflek has a redeeming movie, it's probably "Gone Girl" ......Argo wasn't my cup pf tea, nor was "The Town" .......he's just a bad cardboard actor
Yes, but personally i love "What Happens in Vegas" ......i'm a ham for bad comediesAll of Ashton Kutcher's movie are rated Rotten according to Rotten Tomatoes.

2. Adam Sandler (& any of his crew)
3. Ashton Kutcher
4. Cameron Diaz
5. Robert De Niro (post-Heat)
Good Morning Vietnam!Agreed he is a solid non-comedic actor. Clearly his best works were serious roles. I don't rate his comedy films whatsoever and some of them are the worst films I've ever seen
I find Ashton dull with a lack of any personality.Yes, but personally i love "What Happens in Vegas" ......i'm a ham for bad comedies
In fact most comedies don't rate well by critics, because comedy is such an individual thing
Gone Girl is one of my fave movies of the last 10 years. I thought it was brilliant. Really wish I could watch it again without knowing a thing about it.
Cruise is just weird, with the influence of the Scientologists.Was great up til when she got home from the hospital - after that - totally unbelievable.
Just watched Crash again for about the 20th time and still cried (I don't cry very often at all in movies ) when the little girl gets "shot".
Fantastic movie. Great cast - intelligent script.
As for actors you hate - cannot stand Tom Cruise but he makes ****ing good action films. Love the Reacher and Mission Impossible ones!
