No he is not the worst actor, he is a pretty good actor in The Matrix and Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure/Bojus Journey!

I don't think he is extremely great but he isn't the worst actor in Hollywood. I think Brendan Fraser is worse than him.

Yooch · 02-24-2011, 03:03 AM

I don't think he's a bad actor at all. Same for Hugh Grant, whom I noticed is also on the list. They're both pretty good actors in my opinion. I think they're 'bad' actors in the eyes of those who compile these lists (Top ten...worse ten...etc.). Critics frame these lists according to their own biases. For example, I sometimes hear people saying Ronald Reagan was not a good actor. I feel that he was very good actor: Case in point: The Hasty Heart made in 1949, co-starring Patricia Neal. I know I've gone off topic, but want to point out the subjectivity of it. An actor is either good or bad based on one's own perspective.

catlover79 · 02-24-2011, 03:15 AM

Nah, I've seen worse.

HuntingtonM15 · 02-24-2011, 03:39 AM

He's far from the worst. The majority of that list is ridiculous.

70s show watcher · 02-24-2011, 05:11 AM

my mother likes him more than i do but no i dont think he is a truly bad actor at all

comedyfreak · 02-24-2011, 06:56 AM

No, he's not the worst.

I was also surprised that Hugh Grant was on the list. He's not extremely great but I liked him a lot in several movies.

The only actor on the list that I think is really terrible is David Caruso. The rest aren't great but they aren't bad. I do think Brendan Fraser is worse than Keanu.

MickeyMac · 02-24-2011, 12:38 PM

Adam Sandler, Will Smith and Will Farrell are way worse than him.

Jessica · 02-24-2011, 01:19 PM

He's not that bad. There are worse actors than him.

I liked Hugh Grant's character in About a Boy. A Really shallow guy whom you get to know better as the movie progresses, and you see a serious side of him.

The other two you mentioned (David Caruso and Brendan Fraser), I've heard the names but I'm not familiar with their acting work.

IMHO, all these actors are great, (other than David Caruso, whom I've heard of, but never seen anything he was in. I would have to recognize him) but if it went to picking out bad choices in movie roles, Will Ferrell should be at the top of the list. I tried (key word) to watch 'Stranger than Fiction' on a website called Crackle (www.crackle.com) and had to turn it off. Nothing against his acting. It's his roles. Don't get me started on 'Elf'!

Schmoopie · 02-25-2011, 04:10 AM

I actually like Keanu Reeves a lot. He was great in Speed and I just loved him in The Lake House and A Walk in the Clouds. Whomever thinks he's the worst actor in history really doesn't get out much.

catlover79 · 02-25-2011, 02:30 PM

I am SHOCKED that Pauly Shore didn't make this list.
