Not a fan of Keanu, Glyn? What is it, his complete lack of acting range?

Speed, bus racing down the highway, the overpass is missing a big part of road.

Keanu "whoa!"

The Devil's Advocate. "Your father, ably played by Al Pacino, is the devil himself! That's why you've won every single case you've taken. No matter how evil the defendant, you just keep on winning because lucifer is pulling strings!

Keanu "whoa!"

The Matrix. "Neo, you are the chosen one! You are the one that will save mankind. Everybody that has gone against Agent Smith has died, but you, being the chosen one, can defeat him!"

Keanu "whoa!"

The guy who plays Hodor on Game of Thrones, though he can only say his own name, still displays more acting range than Keanu.

It's funny, because I've liked most of the movies he's done. But he's never been the reason why.

I look at him, and shake my head when I remember that he's a millionaire several times over while displaying the acting chops of my neighbor's shih tzu.

Default Nail hit squarely on the head

He does somehow pick movies that his terrible acting often does not ruin.

I just happened to turn on Cinemax. 3 am, and the aforementioned Devil's Advocate is on. Assuming you've seen the movie, it's the scene early on where Keanu has just returned to the apartment in NYC after the trial he helped select the jury for has ended. He's sitting there on the couch while Charlize is consoling him for what she assumes is a loss (ie guilty verdict). There's a few seconds where there's nothing going on, and I'm reminded once again how awful he is. I had to pick up the remote to make sure I hadn't accidentally hit pause or something. Nope, the movie was still playing. It just seemed like it had been paused because he's incapable of showing any emotion at all with his face.

I still love this movie though, because Pacino is absolutely evil, and Charlize Theron is absolutely hot. They are capable of carrying the movie.

Singer - Justin Beiber, Axl Rose, and Roseanne Barr. Put 'em all on an island and let the eat each other.

Band- any band that gets in the way of someone trying to practice place-kicks.

Actor- Tom Cruise (just quit, okay?), Ben Stiller (never 'got' any of his work),
Pauly Shore (just to let the other two know how low they are)

and the most dangerously bad actor of all - Barry Soetoro (google him and you'll see that you probably agree)

In defense of Val Kilmer, he has seen better days, but his work as Doc Holliday in 'Tombstone' was amazing!!

Adam Sandler is terrible.
I might be in the minority but I don't enjoy Sofie Vergara (especially if the sound is on
Although I am sorry to have heard about his accident, Tracy Morgan is the least funny comedian in decades!

Miley Cyrus is terrible. She's not alone...
I dislike almost all "new " music besides the occasional indie music that I stumble upon. Kinda like baseball cards... 35-40 years old minimum!!
Even though he fits the time frame for music I Like, I skip all Eric Clapton songs..way overrated.

Singer-Bruce Springsteen
Band-Nirvana
Actor-Tom Cruise

I know lots of people love them, but I can't stand any of them, all 3 have no depth or range, but still rake in millions every year(Adam Sandler is awful as well)

Nickleback, for the only reason that they suck and they should board a plane with Journey and Bon Jovi...what happens after that I won't mention. My wife loves Nickleback and I don't see how we are still together; she's lucky we have kids. There was a time when she bought 2 tickets for them in concert, 1 for her and 1 for me, I think she had fun as I stayed home.

Actor: Andie McDowell

. . . ever since I saw her do an interview about her Western Bad Girls (1994). She got on an anti-gun rant; said she couldn't wait until a scene was finished so she could throw her gun on the ground. No doubt so that she'd have both hands free to grab the money she was making.

Singer by far is Bob Dylan. The man can write songs, but should be allowed nowhere near a microphone.

Jim, I never met anyone who didn't like Guns and Roses till just now.
Other than Van Halen, they were the only hard rock band in the entire 80's worth a damn. I remember hearing them for the first time thinking....FINALLY someone has saved hard rock!

Bono & John Cusack.

Q: Bono, you have met Pope John Paul, Mother Teresa, the Dalai Lama, and Nelson Mandela; who is the most humble person you have met?
A: Well I hate to brag but the mirror looks pretty good in the morning....

Q: John Cusack, are you willing to admit Layne Meyer in Better Off Dead was your greatest movie role?
A: No. Remaining anonymous in Sixteen Candles was probably my best movie role.
