Kurt Russell is a terrible actor


I'm surprised nobody else has mentioned this. He alone made me want to turn off the movie early. I wish I had by the time I got to the end, though he was thankfully killed off well before the end. It seemed like he was told by the director to "act blustery" and boy did he turn up the bluster. Problem was I couldn't buy it, from his first sentence (or shout, I should say). You would think Tarentino could get good actors, unless said actors' agents looked at the script and knew this was a turkey. (Also S. Jackson's routine is getting tired and worn.)

I disagree. I thought his acting was fine. He was good at being an angry man.

"I'm surprised nobody else has mentioned this."

Probably because it isn't true...

George Clooney is a terrible actor.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Kurt turn in a bad performance.
