Default Can you name an actor who...

Has not acted in a bad film?

This came up the other day when watching Pulp Fiction. My friend said he did not really like watching John Travolta in anything after he watched him in Battlefield Earth.

We started talking about how there probably weren't any established actors in Hollywood who had not made at least one bad film. I certainly couldn't think of any.

The only stipulations are that they have to have acted in at least 5 major motion pictures. Also, it's ok if the film didn't do too well at the box office if it was given rave reviews by many critics.

lol

i think what you've gotta look for is someone relatively young who either started in an indie film or came out of absolute nowhere and has been pretty selective.

Edward Norton's first 6 films come to mind

or maybe a guy like Mark Ruffalo, minus the romantic comedies

Another Stakeout was terrible. Good guess though.

Ed Norton was in Death to Smoochy, among others. Also a good guess.

This is hard.
