Let's Talk About Tea Leoni
This is a terrible "actress". A more wooden performance I haven't seen. Her expression remains the same throughout the movie. This movie was a dog, too.
shareI totally agree. Her acting is absolutely terrible. Someone, somewhere, backwhen must have liked her 'good looks' and she was able to string together a small mess of 'performances' somehow.
shareIronic that she's married to David Duchovny. Another actor noted for an expressionless personage.
I honestly (I swear) thought she was mentally challenged when I first saw her in Bad Boys! It wasn't till towards the end I realized she wasn't. Something about the way she talked, slurred her words, always had her mouth open.
Having said all this, I think she's got her own thing going and I do like watching her.
I agree. She is particularly awful in this movie.
shareI am so glad her 15-minutes are up. Go away. She always gave me the heebie-jeebies. I'm just sayin'
shareI'm watching this film for the first time right now, and when she gets the News Anchor position, and reports on the shuttle mission, she was more wooden than any news anchors I've seen. Even Morgan Freeman's Presidential speeches had more punch and attention.
"Thanks, guys." "So long, partner."

I haven't seen her in anything except this movie, which I've just watched. For some reason, I found her generally annoying.
She always seemed to have the same expression on her face, and her delivery of the news was just awful.
I wonder if she had the same annoying expression on her face when the half mile high wall of water hit her like an aircraft carrier slamming into a kitten.
shareGo on with your bad self, brotherzed! Ms. Leoni leaves me flaccid as I've stated many times but anytime you can in the word impregnate, I'm all for it!
shareOh come on. Flaccid? If you'd never heard of her before and you saw her walk by on the street I'll bet you're jaw would hit the sidewalk. She may not be a 10 in your mind, but she is VERY hot. Or was, anyway.
shareThis little string made me LOL, but speaking as a woman (66 years old so you might say I 'did' the 60s), I grok from looking at her, that she's cute, yes, but you wouldn't actually have a 'fun ride' with her. Maybe that's not important, but I've 'had' some good looking guys but the BEST rides were always very ugly and thus very grateful ensuring my satisfaction came first, and since I always felt the same way, it always worked out quite well. I'll go away now and continue running this movie at 2x on netflix.

Life is a journey not a destination. Fear nothing.
tantewalleka, your unashamedly proud, cavalier attitude about your youthful, profoundly vulgar wantoness is a painful reminder for many generations to come on this planet of the price we're all paying because some of the millions of baby boomers and that rampant perverse hedonism that you so glibly described.
The ethos of these baby boomers will be historically remembered as a generation that has left the preceding generations without jobs, health- care or a free college education, unlike most of the rest of the world.
You say "life is a journey not a destination: fear nothing".. really?
How fitting.
Regarding that above sentiment, the promiscuous narcissism of the baby boomers has done more to steal from future generations than any other in history. The deficit, Social Security, precious natural resources like water, fossil fuels, trees and forests, more toxic chemicals, not to mention AIDS, and the rise of more STD's etc.
Now that's a "DEEP IMPACT."
now back to Tea Leoni
And there, folks, we have a caricature of the totally indoctrinated leftist, conflicted with a moral center it can't quite find a rational outlet for.

Amen! Although, I have to admit that I laughed my arse off while reading it! share
when i saw a woman in her 60s was talking about her sex life i knew it was gonna stir up some *beep* but i never expected something this obnoxious, congratulations. its people like you thats making the world *beep* for the next generation. talk about irony.

How can Morgan Freeman and Robert Duvall (Hey Boo! and "The Ace!") NOT steal ANY movie they are in? Nevertheless, for a supposed news anchor, Tea Leoni could not have been more wooden than she was in this movie. Sheesh!
shareyou go away
"I fought your kind in the great war and we kicked the living *beep* out of you"
Agreed. Not a good actress, and not particularly attractive.
sharei don't think she is a bad actress. she has been decent in several other movies and her "15 minutes" are not up since she is still getting good roles as recently as 2011's Tower Heist. and i think it was courageous of her to play this particular role the way she did. not many would decide that a T.V. news anchor and white house reporter should be played as if they had never had a speech/public speaking class ever, and generally don't belong in front of a camera. that was brave.
