Hasn't It Already Been Proven.....

Hasn't it already been proven by the likes of the execrable remake of "Rollerball" that Klein is NOT the action-hero type? [his miscasting was just one of many blunders in that thoroughly wrong-headed movie]. He's not without talent, he's got a certain easygoing, apple-cheeked all-american boy charm, but he's just not convincing as a man of action. So why does he have no less than 3 films on the docket that cast him in such a role? Do the producers see or sense something we don't? Just curious....

This looks like a 1 star if I ever saw one.

Don't look now but the idiots in charge of casting put him in the role of Charlie in that horrible Chun-Li movie. o_O

Yeah, this movie is definitely going to blow big time- especially with Chris Klein as the lead. And plus, Jason Wiles' first directing effort was a stinkbomb. But really, Chris Klein will always do more harm than good to your movie.

Truer words haven't been spoken -- Chris Klein's career is likened to the doom of Sisyphus. He was condemned to Hades to push a boulder up the mountain only for it to roll back down to bottom. Klein and Sisyphus are synonymous with doom. Hire Klein if you want a stinker for ratings :)

Klein and Sisyphus are synonymous with doom

Wow. That's poetry right there ;-)

I use to go by what i read on reviews and critics especially on imdb but come to learn i missed out on many good movies by doing so and realized just better for a person to watch and judge themselves, i fail to see how it is been said that Chris Klein career is going down or that how he is not good at all? i mean seriously? i yet to see a movie from him that i did not like, so far i have enjoyed every single one of his movies and i happen to think he is great on all his movies, i guess this is why they say we all have our own opinions, I am sure many have heard this many times over but always judge a movie your self and watch it on your own before going by reviews or you might miss out on a real good movie that you could have enjoyed.
