I like Ghost World a lot, but I sure wouldn't call it much of a performance for ScarJo. She really doesn't do much, and some of her deliveries are pretty flat.
And while I may (or may not) care about her politics, it doesn't make me like her anymore than I would otherwise. What I really don't like is how she seems so popular, she ends up in whatever dumb project is out there. She's not THAT appealing, but she's the flavor of the day, so we get Lucy and some other super power movie and super hero movie.
I wish she picked her work more carefully and maintained some allure.
Plus that voice ! Sometimes she sounds like the Marlboro Man after a lifetime of smoking. And then gets the voice-over work in that cell-phone love story. A voice artist could have had a great gig with that, but it goes to ScarJo. I don't get it.
