Yes

No.
(Although I did like the film Derailed. She was better than I expected but still not totally convincing).

reply

Yes, not great but yeah she is ok

ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THE WORDING BEING WRONG...ANISTON IS A GOOD ACTOR,LIKE EVERYONE ON YOUR LIST..SHE IS NOT A GREAT ACTOR THOUGH,LIKE ABOUT HALF OF THE LIST.

reply

There are a handful I wouldn't say that are good from the list. Kristen Stewart for example has no range. Nicolas Cage can be okay in the odd role, but most of the time he is over the top.

reply

KRISTEN STEWART DOESNT GET PAID TO ACT IF SHE WASNT AT LEAST GOOD...SHE MIGHT NOT BE GREAT,BUT TO BE IN THE PROFESSION FOR WHAT?...20 YEARS...SHE IS GOOD.NIC CAGE HAS AN OSCAR...HE MIGHT MAKE A TON OF BAD FILMS,BUT HE IS A GOOD ACTOR AT THE VERY LEAST.

I PROPOSE ANYONE WHO HAS AN ACTING CAREER FOR YEARS AND YEARS,WHO CONTINUE TO GET ROLES AND WORK,IS BASELINE A GOOD ACTOR...

reply

It depends. Some people have a career based on their looks, nepotism or box office hits that an actor just happens to be in. Some even have a charm but aren't really that great of actors.

reply

SEE,YOU SAID IT..."GREAT"...ALL THE NAMES ON YOUR LIST ARE TALENTED ENOUGH TO WORK CONSISTANTLY...THEYRE GOOD....BUT ONLY THE BEST ARE "GREAT"...

K STEWART ID A GREAT EXAMPLE...SHE IS A GOOD ACTOR,MAYBE NOTA GREAT ONE..SHE DOESNT DO "HITS" REALLY,SO WHY HIRE HER?SHE ISNT SCORSESE'S NIECE...SHE CONTINUES TO WORK BECAUSE SHE IS A GOOD ACTOR WHO ISNT HARD TO LOOK AT...MEGAN FOX WHO IS WAY MORE "ATTRACTIVE"...HER CAREER WENT ASS UP BECAUSE SHE ISNT EVEN A GOOD ACTOR,LET ALONE GREAT.

reply

Megan Fox's career went ass up when she called out Michael Bay's on set behaviour. I wouldn't even say she's good. Above average.

Speaking of Kristen continuing to get work, today it was announced that Kristen has been cast to play Princess Diana in an upcoming film titled, Spencer, which deals with the three day Christmas weekend when Diana decided to step away from royalty.

Pablo Larrain, who will direct the film, called Kristen, "one of the great actors around today."
