Sean Penn

Yep I said it. Are you in need of a good nap? Well pop in a Sean Penn film and you'll get some excellent sleep! I have never understood the hype around this guy and the fact that he has two Oscars is absurd (lol at him winning for Mystic River). Most of the critics love him for his political views and I think that many of them are often blinded by that when kissing his arse.

Sean Penn and 90% of his movies = yawn

Of today it is George Clooney.

Penn was good in The Tree of Life and Mystic River IMO.

He was excellent in Mystic River, Colors, Bad Boys, The Game, 21 grams, and last but not least Carlito's Way.

Richard Gere. Not that he was ever critically acclaimed, but the fact that he's still considered a professional actor or celebrity is an offensive notion

Clooney is up there without a doubt and second on my list behind Penn.

Clooney however doesn't receive as much critical acclaim as Penn does.
