John Cazale in Deer Hunter for best
It's a favorite of mine, but Orson Welles playing Unicron in Transformers is a pretty low point for the former wunderkind

i thought Marlon Brando in "The Score" was pretty decent. certainly not on par with his greatest, but at least a nice little piece.

John Schlesinger's "The Next Best Thing" probably qualifies for worst final film by a director.

When I was a kid, I imagined a conversation between Raul Julia and John Candy in the afterlife where they asked each other what their last movie was, and then they felt sorry for each other.
