BAD:
too many to name but I really don't see the hype about Leonardo Dicaprio...his voice and face are always the same in his movie (he could change them a bit for different roles) he's nothing special and everyone hypes him like he's this big thing...really, he's not that great! (not great at all, IMO)

I can't think of any bad actors -- but bad actresses Kate Beckinsdale is the worst all she is a head of hair, Tara Reid isn't that great either.

Jim Caviezel(up & coming star after Passion of the Christ).

Some people believe his performance as Jesus Christ was Oscar award winning.I do hope we saw more of the great actor.

I forgot to mention Charlize Theron.She is amazing,espeically as Aileen Wuornos in Monster.

but bad actresses Kate Beckinsdale is the worst all she is a head of hair

I agree that Kate B isn't one of the best actresses.She has a great head of hair though,its so thick and gorgeous! But thats besides the point... ;)

What!? I think he's underrated. He's a great actor. The problem is he's unbelievable as the characters he plays. Even though he's about 30, he looks 15, so in films where he was really good (e.g. the Aviator) you get distracted by the fact that he looked so much younger than the character he was playing (he suffers from "eternal youth syndrome'. Michael J. Fox used to suffer from this in his "Family Ties"&"Back to the Future" days.**). He should just stick to films where he plays teenage boys. Like 'Catch me if you Can". That's a good film. One of my faves.

**Isn't it amazing that I manage to sneak in a referance to my favourite actor in all my posts :p
