The winner is Hayden Christensen.

Christensen might be the worst actor of all time, which he proved in SW. He never should have gotten a leading role.

I disagree about Stallone. I thought he flexed some nice acting muscles in Cop Land. With him, it might be more that he was type-cast.

I really dislike Jack Nicholson. Maybe he was good back in the One Flew Over days, but it seems like he just revisits the same two characters time and again. He doesn't seem to have the range of a lot of stronger actors. And he's supremely unlikeable.

Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. The former because he's awful, and the latter because of horrible character choices. Maybe I've just disliked everything she's ever done, but she has never struck me as strong in any way.

Wow, I find Jack extremely likeable.

Tom Cruise was excellent in Born on the Fourth of July. He just usually chooses roles that are uninteresting and seem mostly calculated to sell by letting him bring out his old persona again.

Everybody was bad in the prequels. Christensen still has my goodwill from his performance in Shattered Glass.

lol at people listing Tom Hanks/Tom Cruise.

Keanu has a quality that most actors don't..he comes off as kind of silly/dumb/surfer guy...but he has a mysterious/smart/soulfull aspect to him that most actors don't have. He can also blend from the typical leading man role(speed) to the more specific genres that most actors wouldnt be able to work within. He is also very goodlooking but not in your typical manner plus he has a distinct personality..similar to JDepp...so it doesn't annoy his male fans while still making his female fans swoon.

In defense of Bruce Willis and Kevin Costner. I suggest checking out some of the independants that they have done, and then call them terrible actors.

Funny, how Halle Barry and Julia Robert's carreer arc is beginning to reflect their abilities.

Nicolson has charisma and that's about it. Interesting he was in Five Easy Peices.

My list is:

Jennifer Lopez

Nicholson is a very smart actor. He's been taking lots of rolls that don't interest me lately, though.

Sarah Jessica Parker.

She's okay, but should never have hit the level she is currently at. I don't understand it.

Yeah, she never seemed that interesting to me either. Her stardom was for the largest part made up of women watching her, though, so I guess I'm not qualified to judge. Except maybe to say that her t.v. show was so popular that probably almost anybody in the role would have become huge. Still, that she managed to get there puzzles me.
