Worst actor....ever

I liked Keanu in the Devil's Advocate. In fact, I liked most of his movies.

I haven't seen that one, but I have to honestly agree with you, I liked most of his movies as well. Call me strange, but I liked the Matrix, Constantine, and yes, even Bill and Ted.

I like Sly too for that matter. Can't stand Will Ferrell though. I have actually tried to sit through movies with him in them and found it almost painful. The only one I could bear to watch the whole way through was Bewitched and that was mainly due to Nicole. Now, A Night at the Roxbury was so insanely bad that the whole SeaBee unit I was in couldn't bear to watch it and it got turned off within 15 to 20 minutes from the start. And we're talking a bunch of men who like stupid corny crap...and they hated it.

I don't think I could name William Shatner in good conscience as a bad actor. I am a trekkie/trekker!

Steven Segal belongs to the same school as Arnold the Governator and Jean Claude Van Damme- they don't really need to act or even not expected to. Chuck Norris might belong to that group, too. ;)

I've liked a lot of movies he's been in too. Just not the parts where he appeared.

Thanks for not making me type it. :yes: (Although, in some of them, like Bill and Ted, he was good, because he didn't have to act.)

I like Arnie in "Twins", "Kindergarten Cop". "True Lies" and "Jingle all the Way". He was lot like Jackie Chan, where there was a lot of poking fun at himself.

However, VanDamme and Segal are two peas in the same pod. They appear overly impressed with themselves and expect everyone else to be as well.

As for the comments about Chuck Norris, they are unfounded, mean spirited and decidedly un-American. :D (Just kidding)

Really? WIlliam Shatner is freakin hilarious. His role on Boston Legal is hysterical. Anyway, if we are looking for a real actor that is supposed to be taken seriously that is terrible, I vote for Keeanu. He is absolutely the worst ting to come across the screen. "Whoa"

I simply don't know how you can say that when we have such gems as Seagal and Ferrell in our midst.

As has been said, as horrible as he is, Segal isn't supposed to be good. All he's supposed to do is beat people up. Ferrell also isn't supposed to act much. He's funny. If you don't like him as a comedian, that's fine, but he's not supposed to be a great actor. Keanu has been given roles that actually required acting, and he ruined some movies because of it. Segal's and Ferrell's movies wouldn't be good even if they had someone in them that you liked.

WHAT!? He played one of the best characters in cinema history!! Doc Holiday was outstanding!!!!! Commy. ;)

The role was as anemic as Doc Holiday's consumption. Fortunately for the movie, the character was remarkable, even if his acting was not. Unfortunately, this role seems to be the HEIGHT of his acting career.

I take it you haven't seen "Real Genius", "Top Secret" or "Willow". ;)

"Real Genius" was real lame. I have avoided "Top Secret". He was not a good "Iceman" in "Top Gun". He was OK in "Willow", but the guy who played Willow was SO much better.

Oh come on now... he was THE most pathetic Batman EVER. Adam West was not only more believable, but more interesting as well.

Adam West was certainly not better than him at that, but that's irrelevant. No, he was not the best Batman, but when did I mention that? Besides, a character like that has extremely big shoes to fill. Just because someone isn't Batman doesn't mean they're a bad actor.

I'm just surprised by your opinion of "Real Genius" and your refusal to see "Top Secret". In my book TS is up there with "Airplane".

Top Secret is great. BTW the only better Batman was George Clooney after all, his costume had nipples!
