Bruce Campbell in the Evil Dead films but in a GOOD way.

I didn't think I had an answer for this thread but you've reminded me that I do, thank you!

Terrell

That was what I was going to say. I'll also say this, which I know is an extremely unpopular opinion, but Cate Blanchett was a bit ridiculous and over the top at Katherine Hepburn in The Aviator. She won an Oscar for that performance, so what do I know. I can only assume Katherine Hepburn was just as hammy in real life.

Matthew Chmiel

Disagree. I thought him chewing the scenery during his brief two-to-three scenes in the film were some of the brighter spots of the flick.

Terrell

You may be right, because the film was so tepid and boring. I did however find him to be hammy in his delivery.

PopcornTreeCt

Kinda makes you appreciate his performance in Lincoln.

Solid Snake

Yeah. Sheen was fine. The character calls for it.

mostaccioli

mine is the same movie but the scene where he goes to the car chop shop to meet albert and says gime all you got and starts singing a glenn campbell song.

My Other Self

This has to be mentioned.

That Deadfall montage was some weird shit. I thought it was some old 80s film from early in Cage's career but I just wiki'd it and it came out in 1993! And the poster looks like a serious sci-if film.

Tommy Lee Jones in Batman Forever.

Spiderbite

Please tell me this is a parody.

Norm de Plume

No, it's some crap called "Undefeatable" starring master thespian Cynthia Rothrock.

There is an answer, over-acting is better. If you had to choose, better to see the one with all the energy rather than that other limp dick performance.

Matthew Chmiel

I'd like to hijack this thread and throw out the recommendation for the Australian television show Danger 5, which came from the creators of Italian Spider-man.



If that .gif didn't sell you on the show, I don't know what will.

Rockmjd23

Not enough Troll 2.

Well, if cheesy foreign crap is allowed for this, have to have that "worst death scene ever" candidate from some old Turkish movie with the dubbed-in screaming:

Johnny Boy

Took the words right out of my mouth. I was scrolling down the thread to see if anyone had posted it yet, and sure enough you did. haha

Traxan

Jeremy Irons in "Dungeons & Dragons." He should have given back his Oscar for that turkey.

Norm de Plume

Agreed, at least based on that example. Irons was gobbling the scenery, whereas whoever the hell that girl was, was absolutely horrendous; an entity incapable of convincing acting.

Jaymole

Yet she got to star in Ghost World one year later.

Obscure, but the first thing that popped into my head was Richard Jordan in Gettysburg. It's a shame considering it was his last role before he died of a brain tumor at 56. He was supposed to have Jeroen Krabbé's role in The Fugitive.
