Stiff actors?
Sorry about this but I think Tarrentino is really stiff when he acts. Yeah, sure he gets great lines, but he seemed stiff and over doing the lines a bit. (refering to pulp fiction.)

He's a side character in "Pulp Fiction." Pretty much only making an appearance.
Well, you should watch "From Dusk Till Dawn." Very funny with Clooney.

Keanu Reeves gets my #1 vote. what a tool.
good thing he didn't have the important lines in the Matrix. all i remember him saying was "whoa" like 10 times.

Slyvester Stallone?
j/k Rocky_Stallone
I actually enjoy Keanu Reeve's performance for the most part and although I constantly mock Tarrantino every time we watch Pulp Fiction ("You have to make some phone CALLS. You got to call some PEOPLE!") he is just a minor cameo, so i will give him a break.
My vote would go for Vin Diesel. I still have enjoyed most of his movies, but his range does seem rather limited. And Paul Walker. My god, those two stiffs in Fast and Furious made for some interesting "acting." I "live my life one mile at a time" indeed.

Keanu, hands down.
Did you see the scene in Dracula where Gary Oldham suddenly lunges at Keanu with a sword? The look of shock and surprise on Keanu's face says it all: "I think I'd like a cheese sandwich."

And it shows greatly in his later "roles".

Stiffness is his schitck (or however the hell you spell that).
His stiffness is evident through his voice. I get a headache just listening to him.

David Hemmings.
He used to be referred to as "England's most expensive piece of wood."
