Which actors/actresses do you think are overrated and get by on looks/nepotism/strategic BJs, but have no actual acting talent?
My list: - Emma Watson - Orlando Bloom (this guy in particular has the Squint Stare and nothing else) - Chris Hemsworth - Emily Blunt - Amber Heard There are probably a few more but I can't think of anything right now. Bad actors, you tend to forget their names. |
Emily Blunt just seems to play a b***h in all of her roles. Is that her in real life? Because that's literally her whole persona on screen. |
Chris Hemsworth is an odd inclusion on this list, IMO. He's no Daniel Day Lewis, but I've seen him in a range of roles from serious to comic and I don't ever recall thinking "man, this guy can't act." |
Ben Affleck |
Emma Watson as in Hermione? She has no looks to speak of, not a nepo baby afaik, and started too young to have traded favors. There must be some other factor |
Yeah, how exactly did this dude become famous? |
She lucked into the Hermione role, which propelled her to stardom despite no acting ability. |
Did you see Mary Poppins? Hardly a b. Emily Blunt and Chris H can act. The rest of the list, not so much. I’d add the Jessicas (Alba, Simpson (although not primarily an actress)) and Natalie Portman. |
Oops, forgot Biel. |
Meghan markle |
Air was an excellent movie. |
Award nominations for Oppenheimer. Was she bidgy in that? |
Ben Affleck can act (and direct). He may not have great range, but he can carry a movie. If you watch some of his more somber roles, he is really good (Argo, Gone Girl, Hollywoodland). And I know you'll say he was just playing himself, but he was really good in The Way Back. Haven't seen Air yet. |
Kristen Stewart
Julia Stiles |
Have you ever watched B movies? Those are bad actors. None of these are as bad as you think. Well…maybe Kristen Stewart 😂 |
