I love the movie the Firm, but this bitch ruined it for me.



This role for her wasn't believable for me. She was such a stuck up bitch in the movie, and she wasn't even good looking. When he brought home the benz, the first thing she said was, "Where's yours?" And then we are supposed to believe that her ugly arse was possible of seducing Gene Fn Hackman. I didn't buy this one. Terrible casting call. It's Tom Cruise for crying out loud.

What you got?

Keanu Reeves in The Devil's Advocate.

He was serviceable, but anyone else coulda done it better.

the Firm


in that movie , the worst casting was the fricking benz, since in the book he got a bmw. I mean REALLY?

worst actor/actress casting? Dakota Fanning in War of the Worlds. I know we were all supposed to go "oh save the little girl" but in reality we were all thinking "give that bitch to them"


actually i change my vote to the Transformer clown being cast as Indy's son. WTF?

I agree that Tripplehorn was bad in that role.

That role was similar to the one Ashley Judd played as the wife of Mathew McConaughey in A Time to Kill. At a point in the movies the viewer was expected to have sympathy for them because their husband's jobs put them in jeopardy. I never felt any for Jeanie.

Ashly Judd should have gotten the The Firm role. She could have seduced all of the partners, Cruise's character's brother, the Gary Busey PI character, Willford Brimley's character's fat butt and the albino and Sally Hunter together.

Maybe it's because the first thing I saw JT in was Basic Instinct. That kind of gave her a desperate, want-to-be-but-never-was vibe. I never thought she was very attractive. Still don't.

jackie Earl Haley as Freddy Krueger.

Ruined that movie.



Also: Travolta in Battlefield Earth. I know the whole movie was shite, but he made it a lot worse than it had any right to be.

Ralph Fiennes as Dolarhyde and Ed Norton as Will Graham in Red Dragon. Will Peterson as Will Graham and Tom Noonan as Dolarhyde in the Michael Mann version (Mindhunter) blow those two out of the water. I even liked Dennis Farina better than Harvey Kietel as Jack Crawford.
