Carroll “Baby Doll” Baker. Exquisitely fragile and ethereal Southern belle with a voice like vanilla frosting and about as much emotional range.
I was going to say Michael Madsen because his acting was so atrocious in Sin City, but I seem to recall he was pretty good in Kill Bill and Reservoir Dogs, though he may have only had to play himself in those roles.
On that note, Ginger Lynn and Francesca Le. Two adult film actresses (from back in the eighties and nineties). Both really good looking women so I’d watch their movies. But as actresses? They were bad even by standards of porno acting.
Such an assessment is only to be expected from a Baldwin.
Sure, ya have…he played dat Huntington Steele guy. You know…way back before he became James Bomb.
Scarlett Johanssen…I love your boobs, but I cringe everytime you speak.
I’ve always considered Jeff Goldblum to be the poster child of this sort of thread.
Zsa Zsa Gabor: I love it whenever you pop up in one of those old movies made in the 50s or 60s, but you can NOT act. (And, although Bernhardt need not spin in her grave, you did not suck at all in Lili or Moulin Rouge.)
Hayden Christensen method of acting:
Say every line like a bell curve.
“but i don’T WANNA Become a jedi”
Seconding Scarlett , she is really pretty but the movies I have seen her in including Lost In Translation. I am not impressed.
John Wayne was just not a very good actor but I love almost every movie he was in.
Not trying to be snarky at all, just trying to understand. How can you enjoy someone in a movie if she can’t act. I’m having trouble wrapping my head around the original question.
Two words: Eye candy.
Great movie!
I’d say current Bruce Campbell is a decent actor. But, Evil Dead 1 Bruce Campbell? Not so much. I read his autobiography (If Chins Could Kill) and they (Bruce and the Raimi bros) weren’t happy with his ability to act like he was in pain. So, they resorted to poking him with a sharp stick off camera to get him to make the right facial expressions.
It’s a good read if you’re a fan.
The only way the OP makes sense to me is if you’re using it to describe people who truly aren’t actors, but have been in movies.
Shaq, I love to see you in a movie, but you can not act.
This is the one I was thinking of. I love to see him in movies…particularly if he’s half-naked and silent.
Madonna…
