Top Ten Most Overrated Actors/Actresses of All Time
big hollywood ^

Posted on 11/20/2011 8:47:17 AM PST by Perdogg

It’s been almost two years since I posted at Big Hollywood regarding the Top 10 Most Overrated Directors of All Time. I’ve had a chance to reflect and think about the crimes I committed in that post. And, to paraphrase Mr. Eko from the greatest TV show of all time, “Lost,” I ask no forgiveness because I have committed no sin … except leaving Spike Lee and Tim Burton off the list, that is.

So, because you all enjoyed that list so much, and because I apparently have a death wish, it’s time for another: The Top 10 Most Overrated Actors/Actresses of All Time

Barbra Streisand?

I’d wouldn’t argue about babs being over rated but at least she could sing and I have always had a ‘thing’ for her...

wow - I'm shocked by your assessment of Meryl Streep. Every movie I have ever seen with her leaves me amazed at her range. I think she is possibly America's best actress.

Please do not think me flip FD, but have you seen most of her films?

I’m no fan of Johnny Depp but I was pleasantly surprised with the Pirate flicks.

Nope no Dreyfus. I don’t know who this guy is, but he has some serious issues.

Hanks, Peck, and Nicholson irregardless of their politics don’t belong on the overrated actors list. Sure they made some dogs, but Saving Private Ryan, Cuckoo’s Nest, and Guns of Navarone are not among them.

Where’s Deniro and Cruise???

I guess he prefer’s flamboyant to stoic.

I agree. Kurt Russell was excellent in Tombstone and what most don’t know is that he actually directed the film, not Cosmattos (spelling?).

Only actress I was bored with seeing naked as she's nude in almost every film. It got monotonous.

I thought Hanks was great in “Forrest Gump” and very good in “Apollo 13”.

Eddie Murphy’s best comedy movie in my opinion was “Life” with Martin Lawrence.

True. But Miami Blues was 1990.

I’ve never seen a Nicholas Cage movie.

That’s mostly because he looks slimy to me, similar to squirming things that can be found under damp rocks, but not as clean or charming.

So I have no clue about his talent, or lack thereof.

Thank you for reminding me about Costner... One of the worst actors of all time.. And that’s a pretty lofty title!
