Movies you like with actors you don't?

[Gothic Sponge]

There are a small handful of films I've liked with Bruce Willis, but I can't stand Bruce Willis!

:mad:

1. The Big Lebowski

probably my favorite movie, but it's got Tara Reid in it, was this her first role? luckily it's not sympathetic

[Kathleen04]

2. Nicolas Cage

I've seen some good movies with him but overall there's something about his personality that doesn't sit well with me..

on edit: Raising Arizona is funny, I enjoyed that one about the lottery ticket and the waitress (name escapes me), Adaptation was interesting but his role as kinda creepy middle-aged twins didn't do much to help my perception of Cage..

5. Have you seen Wild at Heart?

Barry Gifford written, David Lynch directed

great flick

7. Haven't seen it

Sounds like an interesting, original plot. I will have to check it out..

8. be warned

it's disturbing

16. This is a snakeskin jacket!

And for me it's a symbol of my individuality, and my belief in personal freedom.

[Rufus T. Firefly]

15. Thank you.

Love Raising Arizona, but can't stand Cage. Probably because his facial expression is always confused...which worked well in RA.

20. LUV'd Nic Cage in

Moonstruck.

3. Never cared for Frank Sinatra's acting...

... but thought "From Here to Eternity" was a pretty damned good movie for the time.

On edit, it occurs to me that I've not really liked Daryl Hannah, either, but really liked both "Blade Runner" and "The Pope of Greenwich Village."

Never cared for James Belushi, but thought "Salvador" and "Thief" were very good.

[FuzzySlippers]

10. Frank Sinatra for me, too,

but I loved the original "Manchurian Candidate".

4. The last samurai with Tommy-boy

[Heidi]

13. Ken Watanabe.

"The Last Samurai" is worth watching for Ken Watanabe alone. What a man.

[sakabatou]

23. Yeah... he's good

[regnaD kciN]

6. Barry Lyndon...

Loved the film, even if it had Ryan O'Neal :puke: in the title role.

[Spider Jerusalem]

9. "The Untouchables", despite Kevin Costner.

And "The Last Samurai", even though I can't stand Tom Cruise.

[6000eliot]

14. Costner almost ruined that movie for me.

He was like a big sucking black hole in the middle of the picture, draining it of all life force.

[AtomicKitten]

17. Costner had a brief moment of yumminess

Check out "A Perfect World." It has Kevin Costner, Clint Eastwood, and Laura Dern in it. It's Costner's best work, and I agree he hasn't much of a body of work to choose from. But he's REALLY good in this.

Plus he's particularly yummy in Bull Durham.

Otherwise, he's 15 minutes is over.

18. Christian Slater

Not my favorite actor but LUV'd him in TRUE ROMANCE.
Great film.

[WCGreen]

11. In Country, with Bruce Willis...

Great Vietnam Flick, from the home fre experiences.....

But I hate his politics...

[njdemocrat106]

12. The Color of Money

Yep, with Tom Cruise. Paul Newman is the man, though.

[KitchenWitch]

19. Rainman

Loved Dustin Hoffman, hate Tom Cruise.

[carpetbagger]

21. Soylent Green.

At least Heston can act.

Working in a geriatric division at a VA in Texas, however, I get a bit nervous about demented guys and guns.

22. Magnolia, Eyes Wide Shut, Vanilla Sky, The DU Lounge

I'm sure you all know to whom I am referring.
