OT: worst actor or actress to ruin a role or movie.

Submitted by NFG on
Holy Hell. To piggy back the best movie fight scene topic, I ask you, what actor or actress single handily ruined a movie for you? I rented Batman vs. Superman tonight and the character played by Jesse Eisenberg is damn near the biggest insult to a casting role I've ever witnessed. It could be the 30 year old scotch I had, but I am pretty sure he ruined the movie and I never want to see his post dodgeball game face again.

But Christensen takes the lion's share. He was awful and his acting can only be described as "wooden" and incapable of actually expressing emotion.

Honorable Star Wars mention should go to the kid that played a young Anakin. He helped (with Jar Jar) take down the movies before Christensen even got involved.

Dazed and Confused, Good Will Hunting, Dogma (and other Kevin Smith movies), Argo, The Town, Gone Baby Gone. He might not be Paul Newman or Daniel Day-Lewis, or even a Ryan Gosling, but he's been in some good movies as an actor and has done arguably even better as a director.
