Kevin Hart for the most part. Just always plays a loud and angry little person . Only thing I saw him actually have range in was fight night.
Are you talking about Gal Gadot or The Rock
You picked the perfect picture for that
More zero range but Jason Statham. Don’t get me wrong, love some of his films but he is always just Statham
Millie Bobby Brown – the biggest range she has is in the power of her hair to make her look about any age.
Dakota Johnson. Nepo baby. Untalented. Keeps getting screen jobs. And, then smug when her movies get deserved bad reviews.
Jason Momoa!
I love the guy, but I have yet to see him really challenge himself when it comes to acting
Dwayne is the Johnny Sins of Hollywood without showing his dong.
Dwayne Johnson
Gal Gadot
Jennifer Lopez
Mark Walhberg. I don’t understand it, how is he still getting roles. HOW?!
Most movie stars are not great actors, but have a lot of charisma. They are usually just playing themselves in movies and don’t exhibit a whole lot of range, but still continue to be box office draws. Not everyone is Daniel Day Louis or Meryl Streep.
Yup, those 3…
Can someone convince me Dakota Johnson doesn’t completely suck? I was loving the madame web hate that she tried deflecting.
Mark Wahlberg ? Anyone? I always feel his acting is slightly underwhelming.
Awkwafina? Imo she so annoying on screen and why is she everywhere?
Seth Rogen. Plays the same clever comeback stoner dude in nearly everything he does.
Owen Wilson, plays the same guy in EVERY single movie.
This sub has this weird fascination with range.
Most actors have extremely limited practical range.
Yeah they can step in and read lines across a wide variety of parts, but they have type and tend to get most of their work playing to type.
There’s nothing wrong with any of this. It doesn’t make them bad actors. It usually means there’s something physically distinct about them that only makes them believable in a rather narrow range of roles [edit or they have a strong brand they want to protect].
The actors that can truly play a wide range of characters at a high level are extremely rare and should be celebrated for their unique talents, but that doesn’t make the other actors bad.
Ryan Reynolds and Rock “The Dwayne” Johnson both have charm. Neither can really act and the films they are in are essentially their character superimposed into a story.
On Deadpool it worked, Blade Trinity much less so. In most cases you know exactly what you’re are getting when they are the lead. They are the definition of entertainment actors, which is fine for what it is.
Gal sadly just cannot act to save her life as isn’t really entertaining or charming, she is very beautiful and that seems to be it.
Jesse Eisenberg. I like the one where he plays Jesse Eisenberg
Dakota Johnson 😑
Emma Roberts. Her face doesn’t move. She’s a boring blonde girl/lady in everything. She brings down any scene she’s in.
Mark Walberg
The rock is the perfect Maui
Vin Diesel
every fucking day I see this question on reddit man don’t you all get tired?
