Terrible career

I'm watching Meet Joe Black right now on Showtime.......LUV her!

She never had a hit film or a real breakout role. Meet Joe Black was a domestic disappointment. She followed that up with three flops/disappointments: Mystery Men, Boys and Girls, and Antitrust. Too many of these in a row and her career stalled and never recovered.

Its simple, she sucks

Basically. Too bad though, she at least deserves better than beer commercials where she has to put on a fake accent.

As it should! Terrible actress. Did you see here in Hawaii Five O?

Terrible career. And yet you're sitting at a keyboard talking about her. You don't have to be world famous to have had a successful career. She got a long list of credits and is still in the game. Oh my, so terrible!

There was this fire, and I had to save it from a baby...

She just struck unlucky, not the first actress to have that happen to her. She had the looks and wasn't that bad a actress to be a biggish star but having a few flops early into her budding career didn't help her. Soon the next pretty thing came along and she was passed on.

Looking at her film career, a lot of her better and more well known work came before Meet Joe Black. Mallrats, The Rock, Basquiat and throw in her debut role in Police Academy 7 (she's at her hottest in that film imo) those were her first four films. She did a film with Keanu Reeves, Thomas Jane and Adrian Brody called The Last Time I Commited Suicide in 1997 and a period film called Basil in 1998 with Jared Leto and Christian Slater. So even before Joe Black, she was starring in lead roles or co star roles in indie and big budget fair before Meet Joe Black.

After Joe Black, she was in Mystery Men, a underrated film that sadly flopped. Seems like a few films after that she starred to get typecast as the girlfriend in American Pie type rom com comedies that became popular after that films success. Either her agent or her, either have bad tastes or she chose those films for the money instead of trying to cement herself as a good actress. She did the Medallion (2003) with Jackie Chan, that was her last high profile film with her in co lead. It's been most straight to DVD or TV movie fare.

Some of her better films form her career Northfork (2003), Bobby Jones: Stroke of Genuis (2004), Green Street Hooligans (2005), Shadows In The Sun (2005), For Your Consideration (2006), Flashbacks of a Fool (2008), Hallam Foe (2007) for me her best performance in a film. Those i would say have been her best work since.

It's been TV mostly since 2006 with the odd straight to DVD film, that many would know her for. She's still a working actress and that's better then most do.

Supposedly torpeedo'd by Weinstein. She's supposed to be one of his blacklisted.
