Bad: Kate Bosworth as Lois Lane. She just didn't do justice with the role.

Good: Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow, yeah baby! :thumbs_up:
Also Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger in Brokeback Mountain.
 
I have to say it here since I wasn't happy when he was firts cast but it's pretty well known that he owned it:

Heath Ledger as The Joker (TDK) SUCH perfection. Every tick, word and movement like he had practiced it since he was born.
James McAvoy as Robbie (Atonement) He embodied both the passion and the sadness in an impressive manner.
Anne Hathaway as Jane Austen (Becoming Jane) She had a lot of charm and while she didn't exactly rock my world, she did well in the role.
 
Good: Catherine Zita Jones in Chicago, definitely :nod:
Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow (come on, you know it's true)
Hugh Grant in About A Boy. He was absolutely perfect for that role.

Bad: For now I'll just say Renée Zellweger in Chicago. She just didn't do it for me.
 
The three Harry Potter trio: Dan, Emma, and Rupert. I think they did a great job at casting these three to play Harry, Hermione and Ron.

I will have to get back to you later on who I think are the worst.
 
The titles says it all! I'll go first... ;)

Bad:
-Nicole Kidman as Ada Monroe in Cold Mountain. :( I never felt she was right for this. She looked misplaced.

Good:
-Catherine Zeta-Jones as Velma Kelly in Chicago. She stole the movie, she killed that role. She was dazzling..... :sigh: She was perfect for Velma. Her voice was strong, the dancing was terrific, etc, etc...
