All the shitty franchises.

Posted by Dignan (aka Dignan) Jul 27 '14, 14:16

Going through his filmography, he's been in exactly *two* good movies. And I'm not talking about bad movies that he makes tolerable via charisma.

The Rundown and Get Smart, which would have been just fine without him.

Responses:

what, do you expect him to play hamlet? dude can't act for crap. shitty franchise is his only real option. - peggy ann mcamanda Jul 27, 14:51 6
- There is a long list of crappy actors who've chosen some pretty awesome movies to star in. - Dignan Jul 27, 15:16 5
  - I think he wanted to be; which is what led him to things like Be Cool and Southland Tales - Will Hunting Jul 27, 15:19 4
    - I love his perfomance in Be Cool almost as much as his work in The Rundown. - David Jul 27, 15:40
    - That was him trying to stretch into something beyond action. - Dignan Jul 27, 15:26 2
      - (Vin Diesel is a pretty solid analogue.) - Dignan Jul 27, 15:30 1
        
        I love Vin Diesel but if you are describing Pitch Black and xXx as successful franchises, I'm not with you. - David Jul 27, 15:42
Watched Get Smart yesterday and it was the suck -- nm - Bacon Jul 27, 14:19 3
- I watched The Rundown again recently. It definitely suffers from post-traumatic overhype disorder. nm - Dignan Jul 27, 14:22 1
  - I agree. It was not as good as the first time I saw it. -- nm - Bacon Jul 27, 14:24
- Funny thing, we watched the Rundown after watching Get Smart to get that bad taste out of my mouth -- nm - Bacon Jul 27, 14:20
