I'm surprised Arnold Schwarzenegger didn't get a mention, WatchMojo.
Honorable mentions: Sofia Coppola and Hayden Christensen
Yeah, you missed a terrible actor. Emma Watson, her acting and film roles suck.
@@joeleboeuf harry potter
@@jimbo9208 Do NOT say that name! It's forbidden!
Steven Seagal. The only actor to stay in character for 35 years.
That’s great
“I’ve been doing method acting for 35 years”
😂😂
🤣🤣🤣😭😭💀FACTS!!!
Van Damme actually played himself in JCVD, and it was pretty amazing. Agree that his other stuff is garbage, but I think it's more that he picks stereotypical B-movie roles because that's what pays the bills.
Van Damme is Daniel Day Lewis when compared to Steven Segal 😂
"They don't know I've been method acting for 35 years" - Steven Seagal
I saw the house of wax remake in theater, the entire theater cheered when Paris Hilton's character was killed, some of them even going as far as to say that was the only scene in the movie that they liked 🤣
Paris Hilton was better parodying herself (or a supernatural entity possessing a wax work of herself) in an episode of Supernatural (Jared Padalecki who plays Sam Winchester co starred with Paris in the House of Wax remake). Paris was again better in twisted rock opera "Repo: The Genetic Opera (think like Rocky Horror but WAY more twisted - heck one scene has Paris singing on stage only for her face to fall off).
@@BMakabre she was surprisingly good in that episode of Supernatural.
And she was a good sport about it as well, she promoted the movie by basically saying "Hey guys comes watch House of Wax, I die in it!"
Lies again? Los Angeles Movies USD SGD
So savage 😂. What did Paris even do to you?
Jaden Smith is terrible. That dude did not inherit any talent whatsoever.
At least his music has improved
He completely ruin The Day The Earth Stood still!
@@williamramirez7559 how he was a child🤨
And he managed to get away with until he reached his teens.
He act down low like his father lol😂😂😂😂
Seagal is probably most offended he wasn’t #1
According to Seagal, he WAS in fact number 1. 😄
Steven seagal knows, in his mind, he’s number 1.
You forgot to mention that Steven Segal was banned from SNL for being so hard to work with too😂
I remember seeing that show. Boy did it suck!
What does that have to do with the topic of this video?
I would cry tears of joy for weeks if Neil Breen and Tommy Wiseau made a film together
The world is not ready for such a work of sheer genius
@@Styxswimmer Damn… you’re right!
Neil is as independent as they come
It would never happen because of a massive clash of egos between the two.
Tommy Wiseau is a legend. You can't teach that acting in any acting school. Pure genius.
Well, you can't teach it to any school at all... Not unless the topic is about things that you should not do
I didn't do it ,I DID NOOOT
@@madmojo-im6jzohh hi Mark
Genius implies it was intentional, which it was certainly not.
Dude is like an alien who only learned how to be human from SNL.
You’re tearing me apart Lisa… Still the most iconic line in history of cinema
huh?? never heard of it
It's just a shame that the passion behind the lines is nonexistent.
@@terryh5763 oh hi Terry
It's from Rebel without a cause.
pffftttt nah.
Lindsay Lohan as Elizabeth Taylor. Her delivery of the line, “I’m bored… I’m so bored!” Should be #1.
You’re forgetting Madonna was in A League of Their Own. Looks like she had fun in the movie. I know I love it
Evita, too
She was actually better than Rosie O'Donnell in that movie. Rosie was atrocious and basically just played herself. It didn't help her that almost everyone else in the movie were great actors.
Van Damme has definitely improved as an actor over the years. His performance in JCVD has been regarded as Oscar worthy.
Came here to say this.
I would like to see Van Damme in a movie directed by someone like Spielberg or Scorsese.
I saw him in a 2001 movie “Replicant” where he plays a dual role: a serial killer vs. his genetic clone, made to capture him. Jean-Claude Van Damme fights Jean-Claude Van Damme onscreen. It was actually kinda good, I liked it
hahahahahaha
I certainly enjoyed his commercials, as well! 😊
Jaden Smith living proof Nepotism does not an acting career make.
Yup the only reason he could get away with it when he was younger was because he was just a kid and no one really expects much and can excuse his acting to a degree but then he grew up and suddenly everyone realized that he doesn’t have any actual acting skills
I liked him in Karate Kid
Yeah he is awful.
@@TheLightBringerXSo what? He is still shitty actor.
@@TheLightBringerX You are caping for him when you don't know if that is a fact, and when OP is criticizing her lack of acting skills not his mental health. I'm not going to feel bad about a rich nepo kid lmao
Seeing Jamie Kennedy here is just so depressing to me, cuz he literally played Randy to perfection in Scream, his character shouldn't've died, cuz it could have kept his career going
Best character in the franchise, alongside Stu and Dewey.
His character was funny in max keebles big move.
one of the best horror franchise of the 90’s, but then again 90’s n early 2000’s were the best years for films. n todays kids will never realise how amazing it was to be brought up in that era n now we’re in 2024, n most new films jus bore me, such as fast X😴
@official_dee17 I get why people don't like some of the fast and furious movies anymore cuz they get too ridiculous. But I still enjoy them as a guilty pleasure in a way, the modern films anyway, just cuz I like them for what they are, just ridiculous explosive action movies, ngl I'm kind of surprised Michael Bay hasn't started directing them 😂
Hulk Hogan once claimed that Darren Aronofsky offered him the lead role in The Wrestler and he turned it down three times. Of course it's another one of the Hulkster's many many lies.
He also was supposed to get the franchise of the George Foreman Grill, but he missed the call because he was talking the kids to school. 😂😂😂
@@PrincessofPower84 Haha I remember that one. The best one is when he said he wrestled over 400 days in one year because he was flying back and forth to Japan. He claimed that because of the time zone difference he gained an extra day. However he failed to see the problem with that. Obviously when he flew back from Japan he would lose that extra day. That one is a classic.
He also claimed that Metallica wanted him to audition after Cliff passed...😂
Well, I wouldn't call comedians, models, Kim Kardashian, athletes and directors giving them bit parts in their own movies "actors".
Some of these people shouldn't count. Shaq, Hulk Hogan shouldn't count. Steven Segal and Jaden Smith earned their spots.
Most comedians are trained actors
@mholtebeck well, since they acted and had lead roles in more than one movie, they should definitely count. It doesn't matter if that's not their main profession. Plus, The Rock and even John Cena proved that wrestlers can act. And Shaq did have a couple of good performances in both Blue Chips and Uncle Drew, so athletes, musicians and people of other professions are very capable of good acting.
Kim K? Was famous....for making films?
Well, ONE film.
Voz • 😂🤣😂😂😆😉🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And a fallout boy music video
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂👏👏👏👏👏
lmfao
A big @ss and a $ex tape
How is Steven Seagal not number one even his running scenes are awkward 😂😂
If you want a good example of really good acting, watch a Nicholas Cage movie. Now, if you want an example of really bad acting, watch a Nicholas Cage movie.
Oh man how true that is
It's because cage does it on purpose sometimes when the movie is bad. For example the no not the bees aargh.
Which movies had the good acting? I've seen most of his movies and his acting is always mediocre to terrible, but in the most entertaining way.
That's why I love Nicholas Cage!
he seems to be either terrible or good and never in between
You don't have to be a good actor when you look like Jessica Alba but she's not bad, she was just in some bad movies.
she looks like she's 12.
It helps that she’s pretty down to earth in person.
@@SpamEggSausage she's the hottest celebrity of all time
Exactly
She was pretty damn good in Dark Angel, I’ll say that.
Jessica Alba isn't that bad, she's just been in some bad movies.
Not to mention she's fine as fuck
Exactly. Not to mention bad directing.
She's so mediocre, though, that if she wasn't "hot", she would never get such billing in so many high profile films.
No, she's legitimately bad. My niece loves the movie "Honey", and it was torture to get to her cringe acting and delivery. I'm glad she found so much success in the business world, because her acting is awful.
shes awful meagan good too when they were younger they made more movies because of their looks noticed how both arent making many movies now? theyre older and they suck acting both have made me cringe on their performances
Neil Breen is absolutely hilarious, as unintentionally as it is for him. His movies are quite entertaining for his acting alone
I don't think Jessica Alba is a terrible actress more than she just got lousy scripts. And Jean Claude Van Damme is just a product of the era
Nobody held a gun to Jessica Alba's head to agree to movies with lousy scripts. That was her decision. If she didn't have the sense to turn down such films, there's nobody to blame but Jessica Alba herself!
So you mean to tell me y'all couldn't squeeze Beyonce on this list?! She single handedly destroyed a childhood classic and was just flat on "obsessed"
That’s one of the 1st people I thought of!! Didn’t want to piss off the beehive
What movie did she play in, that's a childhood classic?
@@anhurtorrez Pink Panther?
@@Edubububu oh yes, I was thinking Austin Powers
@@anhurtorrez my guess is Austin powers but I could be wrong
Nobody noticed the subtle transition from Tarantino to Tara Reid's feet?
Jaden Smith was good in “the get down” on Netflix. Seemed like he was actually playing a character he was interested in and not one his parents told him to.
Jessica Alba is great in Idle Hands.
And sin city
And Dark Angel
Agreed
Total babe in that movie. Her Angel costume was hot.
@@santiagodunbar2381 agreed. Sin City had a great role for her.
A lot of rappers turned into good actors by the way. Tupac, Ice T, DMX, 50 Cent, Method Man and Eminem are good examples
Ludacris is decent. 50 Cent is wooden.
@@ThePrinceofHisOwnKingdom
What about Ja Rule?
...nevermind.
I'll maybe give you Method man, but the rest of them,..... no. But they're famous so it's okay for them to be terrible actors.
Also Shad Moss (Bow Wow)
T.I
Just wanna say that Jean Claude Van Damme's inclusion on this list doesn't really include his more recent work. His fake autobiographical film, JCVD, had him actually doing some really fantastic work. He had a series recently, Jean Claude Van Johnson, which played off his celebrity, but was very funny and tongue in cheek, and had him doing a fantastic job.
Even suggesting that Kim Kardashian is an actress is like saying the guy that flips burger at McDonald's is a chef.
The world wasn't ready for Tommy Wiseau masterpiece acting.
No Tommy wasn't ready for reality to tell the truth that his film was trash and his acting was non existent.
Neither were mine retinas
No Tommy wasn't ready for the film business and that is why his film sucked and people only give it praise out of pity.
It's alright we can wait
Jesus Christ that Tommy Wiseau scene had me in tears 😂
That scene and movie has made plenty of lists.
honestly, I don't think he's a bad actor, the problem is he wrote terrible dialogues and directed himself
@@greenrobot5 Well, in one scene he just had to have an emotional breakdown (and he literally breaks everything Godzilla style), he barely had any dialogue, just some random screaming, and I wouldn’t say that was an Oscar worthy performance tbh.
Except for comedic relief, I don’t see him performing well even if you gave him a script written by Tarantino and be directed by Kubrick.
Yep it had me in tears for just how annoyingly pathetic it was and why he never made another film again.
@@JustTooDamnHonest he made at least two movies after that, one of them called "Friends" which I saw and another that I can't remember. There's a new one called "Big Shark" which looks like it's gonna be terrible
Say what you will about Tom Green but every time I see the “Daddy would you like some sausage” bit I laugh hard. Love that clip.
It’s good that I’m not the only one.
I didn't even know Kim Kardashian was in any movies
Van Damme saved himself by willing to spoof himself in JCVD
Jessica Alba is not a bad actress, just the movies are. It’s like Kirstin Stewart in the Twilight franchise.
She is one of the most beautiful women of the 2000s.
How dare them put the Woman i Love on this list!
Kristin is one note though and that's putting it nicely.
No, she's a bad actress, but a great business woman.
@Woozlewuzzleable no a lot of the roles she's taken since the end of the twighlight series, has proven she does actually have some range. You probably just haven't seen many them, or just have a bias against her due to her older roles. It's hard not to be harsh on her later works, when you're used to her previous one note roles
How about 10 great actor/actress who deserves to be recognized 👏
Yes I guess the most underappreciated actors and who would be on that list Stephen Root and Paul Giamatti for starters
I’m so surprised Denise Richards didn’t make this list
She's a decent actress.
@@LuciusGeronimo LOL!!! Hahahahahaahaaahaaa
Jean Claude Van Damme has a great performance in his Film JCVD. An amazing monologue and comedic timing.
Jessica Alba hasn't even been in only bad movies. She was also in Machete and Sin City 2
The first Sin City was legendary and I thought the Fantastic Four movies are funny.
So forgetful films and that is just as bad. Her failures out way her successes.
SLEEPING DICTIONARY WAS QUITE GOOD NEVER GETS MENTIONED AND KILLER INSIDE ME I LIKED MACHETE TOO
@@user-qc6mf9ox2z I never said I didn't like Machete.
Machete was a great popcorn flick and Sin City was a hit due to the having three directors working together to craft a great recipe of a film.
@@JustTooDamnHonest Sin City forgotten? Literally one of the best if not best comic adaptation as well as pioneering tons of digital effects with digital camera work.
Imagine being Kim Kardashian and finding out there are 18 worse actors than her. 😂
2:56
Production company: how many laptops do you want?
Neil Breen: yes
Jamie Kennedy to me will always be Randy from Scream.
"The police are always off track with this shit! If they watch 'Prom Night', they'd save time!"
Quentin in from dusk till dawn was great to me
Him and Shyamalam more or less do an extended version of the Hitchcock cameo (and so does Stephen King), which can have a certain charm if not overdone. As they tend to overdo everything they do, alas...
Totally agree! Stupid that he made this list.
Rob Schneider can act. He needs the control and discipline provided by Lorne Michaels to show it. When left to his own devices he kinda falls apart.
Same with Mike Meyers.
Where's Sophia Coppola? Clear example of nepotism and singlehandedly ruined godfather 3.
The movie wasn't good in the first place
Not her fault. The original actress had to bow out and Sofia was forced into the part. She's done very well for herself as a director.
Kim kardashian is not an actress
Yes she was in movies couple shows and is about to be in American horror story so she's gotten plenty acting gigs making her an actor
She still tried, tho.
@@yoshifrazzled7628, you're right she is an actress...an porn actress 🤣🤣🤣
Or a singer
She did okay in Tyler Perry’s movie.
“Oh Hi Mark” Is burned into my head
Jessica Alba is NOT a bad actress, and some of the choices on this list are just ABSURD! ALL actors have some bad moments and in movies that bomb from time to time
Jared Leto was not a bad Joker, he did the best he could with what they gave him to work with. Suicide Squad was just a bad movie
Huh...that was a pretty solid list! I half expected to be upset by your choices, but I think you nailed a pretty solid 20!
Paris Hilton....Nuff Said.
Aww, Not Pauly Shore!!!
I grew up watching Encino Man, In the Army Now, & Bio-Dome.
Don't forget Son in Law and Jury Duty. Some of my favorite movies to watch when I was younger.
And what about his timeless work in the goofy movies?
@@devinfaucette Those movies are impeccable
Jamie Keneddy and Jessica Alba are far from being bad actors
Same for Rob
In a alternate universe Tommy Wiseau has won every Oscar under the sun.
Probably lol.
I was like “Wait! Steven Seagal is #2??? Who worse than he is??? Tommy Wiseau?!?! Oooooh ok. Makes sense.” 😅
I thought the exact same thing.
I like seeing Quentin act in his movies. It's funny. Same thing for Shamalan.
I also like Van Dam
Elizabeth Berkeley should be number one. She made one movie and it was so bad, it destroyed her career. It was "Showgirls".
When you think about it, she's not a bad actress...the script was so damn bad Meryl Streep would have tanked in it too.
You forgot Amber Heard. Every time I've seen her try to portray a strong emotion, she thrusts her chest into the face of the actor she's playing off of. Even her acting coach said she can't act!
She also didn't convince the jury in her live action court drama.
@@finneoganWell, apparently Johnny Depp didn't fully convince the jury either, since he was also found liable for defamation in Heard's countersuit. Funny how people conveniently forget that.
@@Muirmaiden Funny how people conveniently forget that the only liable thing for defamation was due to his lawyer and not Johnny himself...by the time the case went to trial, her counterclaim had been whittled down to a few statements made by one of Depp's lawyers, who called Heard's abuse allegations a hoax
Just because you hate her that doesn't mean she's bad.
Amber Turd
If jaden wasn’t will smiths son, I don’t think he’d have any fame. His music was trash, and his clothing brand didn’t even get 15 minutes of fame.
I wonder if he could have been a better actor had he not acted in movies alongside his father, which could have prevented his creativity. Imagine having to do an acting scene where you are in a raging fit argument with your actual spouse. It would be very awkward.
Hogan may have been bad , but he was memorable
If your casting a kardashian u don’t want to be taken seriously
Can't believe The Rock, Kevin Hart, Laura Prepon, Jimmy Fallon weren't on this list
Yeah I thought of the Rock as well. Terrible movies too
I guarantee Kim Kardashian trying to be scared in AHS will be hilarious.
Kim on the list and not the worst is hilarious
She’s gonna be in the next season of American Horror Story apparently, so…
@@LCp1RickIlls I thought that series finished
It was small but I liked Jamie Kennedy's frantic character in Romeo + Juliet, and he he delivered the Shakespearean lines pretty well, all things considered.
How did you guys not include Mark Walberg on this list. He has like two expressions in every film.
That's exactly what i am thinking. Wahlberg can't act and not including him is like an insult to the whole Business.
Ridiculous. He does drama and comedy. Him in Both genres sell tons of movie tickets
Say hi to your mom for me.
3:58 After the Quentin Tarantino entry, showed Tara Reid's feet. I see what you did there WM
Honestly, Kim Kardashian’s best performance was in Paw Patrol: The Movie. She’d voiced a character that was basically a dog version of her
Her character was barely in the movie. She was in the movie for like 5 or 10 mins.
@@criminalmindsgirl2936 yeah a bit like Matthew McConaughey in The Wolf of Wall Street; they were both marketed in the movie as part of the secondary protagonists but ended being in only 10 minutes (of a 3-hour movie).
Edit: fun fact: she will appear in the sequel alongside her children Saint & North West
Nah, Kim’s best performance was in the movie she made with Ray J.
very good list. i would probably add bobcat goldthwaite. i always wondered what the hell was wrong with that guy.
He's a comedian. Bad things happen when they put comedians into movies....not always, I suppose.... But other than Kevin Hart and Eddie Murphy I'm not sure of any comedians that successfully made it as actors. And Kevin Hart is debatable. And Robin Williams was an actor first. I guess it worked out for Jim Carrey 🤷🏾♂️
Forgot Brie Larson, Ben Affleck, Matthew Broderick, Tyler Perry, Awkwafina and Zoey Deschanel.
_The Room_ is one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen in my life. I saw it like 2 or 3 years ago (super late, I know), and I was laughing to tears when Tommy is like “o hi Mark.” Lmao! 🤣🤣😄
The 2 extended sex scenes in the first 20 mins of the movie was genius 😂
The opening flower shop scene made my sister question: “Wait this isn’t a real movie, is it?”
I STILL have never seen it so........
Better late seeing it than never 😂
@@itwontcomeout5678 Oh, hi doggy.
No Rob Schneider slander! Deuce Biggalo and Hot Chick are classics! 😂😊
how are they classic do you know anyone who talk or even like them
@@jimbo9208 I like them
@@jimbo9208 I do too 😅
Rob, haven't you got anything else to do?
I like both the Deuce Bigelo movies but bad actors/actresses have successful movies tho, neither of those make him good
I love the django cameo 😂😂 “shut up black” maybe that’s just me
I expected Pamela Anderson on the list. She was never on Baywatch for her acting skills...
You were wrong about Quentin Tarantino those cameos were fun and there was also from dusk till dawn
Nonsense, his scenes in Pulp Fiction or Django were pure cringe.
Your aloud your opinion I’m aloud my opinion but his accent in Django was pretty silly
I really don't get the hate
@@ICreatedU1His performances in Desperado and Four Rooms were oscar worthy
Agreed…I thought Tarantino was fine as an actor
Jean Claude van Damme and Steven Siegel movies are not about acting. It’s about the action.
Van Damme was never an actor. He was a movie star. Which isn’t necessarily the same thing.
So are Tom Cruise's movies, yet he CAN act.
Steven Siegel isn’t even good at action 😂
Even the action in Seagal's movies is terrible.
When Tommy threw the tv out the window 🤣🤣🤣.
Wait where's Jennifer Lopez
No way man. Jean Claude Van Damme already showed chops, acting chops, in JCVD.
Even if he's gotta be on the list, he shouldn't be worse than Kim Kardashian.
Agreed! He received great notices for that one, he's always been enjoyable in his movies and he actually showed effort compared to Seagal.
Yes agree want moore on he's native language
The Room remake with Bob Odenkirk is going to be awesome. I can't wait to see how he does.
JCVD was OUTSTANDING in his self-titled movie and actually CAN act UNlike sensei Seagull
I loved Tarantino's cameo in Pulp Fiction. I thought QT sold the character perfectly - his initial outrage, then his fretting and snarkiness, and the pleasure he shows in seeing Winston Wolfe humiliate Jules and Vincent.
This video is tearing us apart , Watchmojo! 🤣😂
Van Damme held his own, he has lots of good movies
Shaq in grown ups2 was priceless to me ,😂😂
Great List Nice
OK how are Justin Timberlake, Beyoncé and Taylor Swift not on this list?! Since they secretly didn’t wanna annoy those three.
Timberlake got saved by The Social Network.
Justin Timberlake was great in Alpha Dog.
Justin Timberlake is not a good actor?????? You're joking right?
Beyoncé did well as Etta James.
Justin Timberlake has definitely proven himself, and not even Taylor Swift considers herself an actress.
How Shatner avoided this list is truly confounding.
Are you kidding? Have you not seen him in Boston Legal? The guy is hilarious.
He’s dramatic but he’s still good
William Shatner? No way
Shatter is a legitimately good actor. Ever since he was young. I’ve seen a lot of his early TV work, and his performers were consistently above average. He even received an award in the late 50’s for one of his performances on Broadway.
This is not the singers list, you're in the wrong thread.
"Daddy would you like some sausage?" is one of the best comedic moments in movie history.
Deuce Bigalow and Hot Chick are timeless wtf. “They didn’t age well” yeah alright 🙄
Lefties 🙄
Yea, it's sad how everything is under a political microscope nowadays.
cook was actually pretty decent in mr brooks. his mannerisms played well to the character in the movie. i'll give him that one
Jamie Kennedy was great as a serial killer in Criminal Minds.
Yeah, Jamie Kennedy shouldn't be here. He's been in some duds but he still had mad potential.
He was also good in "Bait" with Jamie Foxx. It wasn't a big role and he wasn't the headliner, but he was still pretty good.
@@s.mcdaniel1149 agreed
Don't you mean that "he was a serial killer in Criminal Minds"? Yeah, I took out "great". 😆
Téa Leoni is on my list. She usually acts without emotion. Deep impact she talked in 1 tone the whole movie i
Agreed. Showed absolutely no emotion even as she saw a massive tidal wave coming at her. Her last word was so emotionless it actually made me mad.
Remember when ignorant, ignorant people were calling her the next Lucille Ball? 😂🤦♀️
While I agree none of these actors offer Daniel Day Lewis or Meryl Streep levels of performance, they are great at what they do. We need character actors or else movies would be boring. Every actor on this list has at least one decent performance. Madonna won a Golden Globe, Jessica Alba was great in Awake and The Eye, JCVD was an 80 action hero what were you expecting Shakespeare? Even Rob Schneider had Deuce Bigalow a certified classic.
Tarantino was pretty good in Robert Rodriguez's movies though.
I think the main reason for that is because those movies are supposed to be cheesy and unrealistic so it works out for both actor and director
He also good in those _Alias_ episodes.
You guys forgot Seth Rogan, Jennifer Lopez and Gwenyth Palrtow. All of which are the same person in every movie they're in.
The Talented Mr Ripley, Gwyneth is great in that.
Dishonourable mentions -
David Arquette
Scott Bakula
Christopher Lambert
Drew Barrymore
Jennifer Lopez
How could you have missed the worst actress of two decades. This actress had a role as a child in a horrible Christmas movie called "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" . That was her best motion picture. She married a billionaire named Riklis who made her his girl toy actress as she did two movies in the 80's and made a comeback of sorts in the 2000s. She was nominated as Worst Actress of the Decade of the 1980s and again in the 2000s--winning the dubious award in the 80s' and coming in second to Madonna in the 2000s. Her name is, (envelope please ) - PIA ZADORA! Pretty much says it all for talent doesn't it.
