Kate Winslet
Bill Nighy
Keira Knightley

I don't think I've seen a bad or embarrassing performance from any of them.

Except for Brody in KING KONG, I don't think I've seen a bad or embarrassing performance from any of them.

I'll probably catch some shit for this, but Matt Diillon....ok, maybe not for Herbie Fully Loaded.

Agree with Kurt Russell. The man can do it all.

I was going to say this and that movie is a favorite guilty pleasure of mine.

So Norton and maybe John Cusack.

As i said, i don't think there is anyone with a clean sheet....but Oldman is close. These two movies were not great, but he has made up for it with many other roles.
