I agree with Keanu Reeves and Richard Gere. Disagree with Pacino. He is brilliant IMO.


My pick that no one has mentioned yet is Dustin Hoffman. He was alright in "Rain Man", but that is it. He is absolutely horrible and I cannot watch a movie with him in it. His more recent hack jobs were "Meet the Fockers" and "Runaway Jury". Both were difficult to watch...

Yeah, Dafoe is difficult to accept here, I think...he was absolutely hilarious in Shadow of the Vampire. Goldblum's a good one, Gere's an excellent choice. But, and I forget who said it, Nic Cage didn't just have one bad movie. Shit, Con-Air is like Citizen Kane next to Face/Off, or ... hey, that reminds me. If nobody has mentioned them, John Travolta and Sylvester Stallone.

I LOVE Chritopher Walken (True Romance), Nichoals Cage (Raising Arizona), John Malkovich (The Killing Fields), Willem Dafoe (Shadow of the Vampire), and Al Pacino for just about everything he has ever done.

I would replace them with Tom Selleck, Ben Affleck, Wil Smith, Sylvester Stallone and any/all of the Baldwin Brothers.

Some not mentioned:

Tobey Maguire
Cuba Gooding Jr. (he seems nice, though)
Steve Zahn
Jason Alexander (showed up with Gere in Pretty Woman!)
Samuel L. Jackson (!)
Mick Jagger/David Bowie


Nic Cage was the star of Adaptation, one of the top 10 movies of the 2000's. He wasn't the sole reason for it being a great movie, but he did very well. He has some very bad roles, but he doesn't merit a mention on this thread for his work there alone.

Don't say that, he was good in Coach Carter.


I can't believe no one has said Nick Nolte(Sp?) he was terrible, I only saw him in one movie(I believe it was called "Teachers").

Kurt Russell and Val Kilmer were both great in Tombstone and Walken was incredible in Suicide Kings. Who ever said that earlier was spot on. That takes them off the list of possibities. I would like to second the nomination for Tom Cruise and also nominate Colin Farrell and Sean Williams Scott (aka Stifler)

Hell, if we're going to sink that low, let's throw in Dennis Rodman, Andre the Giant, and Rowdy Roddy Piper....

"They Live" has one of the best fight scenes in it.... I love that movie :)

teddy... why do you keep naming people you've never seen or only seen once... first Jim Brown and now Nolte. Nolte is good at one character... the grouchy cop with a hangover (48 hours).

lol, the guy has done some good roles, but I wouldn't choose Coach Carter as a "saving grace" (it's like being a great actor in a teeny bopper movie)
