  • Daniel Radcliffe in Order of the Pheonix; one of only two genuinely good films in the series (the other being 7B), he still manages to give me splinters in my eyes whenever he's on screen.

  • Really agree with Dr.Kermode on Godfather III.

  • I don't know what Mark is talking about, Breaking the Waves is a masterpiece!

  • "Wimbeldon" with Bettany is a quite good film for it's genre. The best actor in bad films is Peter Cushing, who always gave it all in serious interpretations in silly films, like all the weird dracula films, many starring cristopher lee

  • Got to agree with Julian Sands. I thought Leaving Las Vegas was absolutely superb, but Sands is just terrible

  • @Darthpenguino oops sorry just saw the whole video...

  • @Darthpenguino that would be BAD acting in a GREAT film. you have it backwards. i dont agree though, he was solid in that movie, which wasnt a great movie. he was awesome in poa and 7.1 and 7.2

  • Jeff Bridges in the remarkably unremarkable, dull Coen Brothers remake of an already not so good John Wayne film.

  • good performance in bad film:

    philip seymour hoffman in pretty much anything - the abortion of a film that was Along Came Polly or Mission Impossible 3, take your pick. Seymour Hoffman is great.

    p.s. - I kind of agree with Keromde on Godfather 3, it's not great, but it's not terrible.

  • @michey1978 I agree too. The problem the film has is twofold; 1) We didn't really need it IMO and 2) It followed two Best Picture winners

  • Most recently - Meryl Steep in the rubbish The Iron Lady.

  • Great use of Chubbyhmmm.
