Over rated Actors

wow, i disagree with you there. Have you seen him in The Machinist? He is Amazing in that.

He is one of my fave actors along with the sadly departed Heath ledger so im so so excited for the new batman to see them together:)
 
Will Smith in his 'Fresh Prince of Bel Air' days was very over acted. He's a bit better now but over did it in Bad Boys 2 Was good in I-Robot though.
 
NOOOO!! He's one of the best actors ever surely?! Have you ever seen "Inside I'm Dancing"? So so so so good, I cried my head off at the end! Not sure about his recent stuff now he's all big and famous but he was very good in the afore mentioned and also Shameless, I was shocked when I found out he has a thick Scottish accent in real life, he did a pretty good London one in Shameless!

Very overrated IMO:

Anthony Hopkins: Watch 'Meet Joe Black' then attempt to disagree with me. Was he supposed to be American in that film :confused: Nice accent Tony :rolleyes:

Al PaCinO: AcceNts EveRy OthEr SyllAble In a WeirDy SinGy-SonGy Voice And AssUmes It will Pass For AcTing. Used to be marvellous, see Godfather 1 (and I suppose 2) and Scarface, but then Carlito's way....bam. He's just a crazy eyed shouty man and that is now his acting 'style'. Pah.

All IMO by the way ;)
 
If you think Al Pacino is one trick pony you might as well include Robert "method actor"de Niro in the same category.:rolleyes:

For me Pacino is a hell of a lot better actor than de Niro though and the best Pacino films IMO were Serpico & Godfather 1....in fact he should have won an Oscar for Serpico!
 
Can't believe I missed him off my list!

A year or so ago, I watched a rundown of the the world's greatest actors, EVER, and he came out at number 2.:confused:

:rolleyes:
 
Keira Knightley.

Just her facial expressions and wooden tone of voice are enough to drive you mad.

Not only is she overrated, she cannot act.
 
Ewan Mcgregor is terrible too, in fact with Natalie Portman and Hayden Christensen, the new Star Wars films must have one of the worst principal casts ever.
 
Tom Hanks. Plays the same character in ALL his movies + Oscar?

Catherine Zeta Jones - Oscar?

Halle Berry - Oscar?

Denzel Washington - (see Tom Hanks) - Give me Forest Whittaker anyday.

I can't believe I forgot him when I listed mine.

Shudder. Anthony Hopkins is crap. Also the Hannibal Lecter in 'Manhunter' was much better than camp old Tony, much more sinister. Even though Manhunter was unashamedly, and on occasion embarrassingly, 80s :D
 
Agree with all of this, plus add Keira Knightley in there. Everytime she plays a character that is not quite posh and snobby, the movie flops.

Just goes to show really...
 
Nicolas Cage is a wonderful actor and a really lovely guy.

As far as I'm concerned the Hollywood clique of George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise and Russell Crowe are over rated.
