Which actor did not have a single bad film?
(lemmy.world)
Rick moranis?
Cory Chase
Jessica Chastain
Look, I love me some Jason Statham being overly British and kicking ass for upward two hours while barely making a face, so I'm going to say Jason Statham.
Have you seen the beekeeper? Terrible film.
No that movie was great.
I’m constantly astounded that people seem to unironically enjoy that movie. I don’t want to rain on anyone’s parade so I stay away from discussions about it, but I saw it in theaters (because I also love Jason Statham) and immediately regretted it. It felt like it was written as a joke, but then tried to take itself seriously, and failed at both. I feel like I’m getting pranked by people saying they like that movie.
James Dean. Credited in only 3 films (appeared in a few more as an extra):
- East of Eden
- Rebel Without a Cause
- Giant
All 3 are above average on IMDb (> 7).
Tim Curry.
And before you tell me he was in some notoriously shit movies, no they weren't, Tim Curry was in those movies, so they're great movies.
Prime example: Oscar (1991)
It got bad reviews (I loved it) but Curry’s performance was amazing.

I'm not a huge fan of Tom Cruise and also never watched the MI franchise, but otherwise he knows how to pick good scripts... Last Samurai, Vanilla Sky, Tropic Thunder, Minority Report, Top Gun, Rain man, Edge of Tomorrow, The Firm. There are still a bunch I never saw so there may be some rotten tomatoes in the basket
I'd also add Eyes Wide Shut
He DOES have some bad movies, but not many. I really don't like the guy either, but I like a lot of his movies. You forgot Oblivion and Jerry Maguire for instance.
Agree he had a very high hit rate, and personal life aside, I enjoy most of his movies.
But MI:2 and MI:3 are mediocre at best, and Knight and Day and Rock of Ages were massive flops (I haven't seen either, but i they look horrible). Cocktail earned him a razzie nomination.
Eyes Wide Shut. What a piece of crap.
Don't forget The Mummy remake, it was so bad they cancelled the Dark Universe because of it.
""Kurtzman called the experience “brutal” and described The Mummy as “probably the biggest failure” of his life.""
Ah, I've even seen that one! Good call

michelle yeoh, she was the only part of STD that was watchable. she has her niche films though.
lol EEAAO is not for everyone
Leonardo DiCaprio?
Churning out good movies since he was a kid.
Is there a really bad movie with him?
"Romeo and juliet" adaptation was garbage imo
Titanic was a hit, but in retrospect, horribly overrated and IMHO absolutely cliche, disrespectful, sacrilegious garbage.
I'm sorry but... Most of them? Especially since it's his performance that has become poor. He is playing himself more and more. A similar thing happened to Johnny Depp. Look at both of them in What's Eating Gilbert Grape and then at stuff like Great Gatsby, Wolf of Wall Street, Shutter's Island, Django / Willy Wonka, Pirates of the Carribean, Shadows, Transcendence. The acting and characters are so similar and they don't give an effort anymore (or try to, and absolutely overdo it).
(Sorry I somehow incorporated a Johnny Depp rant in a critic of DiCaprio, their story of decline is just too similar to me. And Gilbert Grape is an amazing movie.)
The Beach is notoriously bad
The Beach was just too weird for the Titanic fans. It was right in the wheelhouse for Danny Boyle fans at the time.
Of course the book was better, but I really enjoyed the movie for what it was.
THE Harold Zoid!
Gene Hackman had a pretty good run
The Conversation is one of the best movies I've ever seen. The feeling you get from that movie is so strange and I love it.
John Cazale
Yep, this is the one I was scrolling down to find.
Godfather.
Godfather 2.
The Conversation.
Dog Day Afternoon.
The Deer Hunter.
All five Best Picture Oscar nominees, three winners.

I haven’t seen more than 3 of his movies, but Heath Ledger seems to have been consistently great.
