    Leonardo DiCaprio?

    Churning out good movies since he was a kid.

    Is there a really bad movie with him?

      I’m sorry but… Most of them? Especially since it’s his performance that has become poor. He is playing himself more and more. A similar thing happened to Johnny Depp. Look at both of them in What’s Eating Gilbert Grape and then at stuff like Great Gatsby, Wolf of Wall Street, Shutter’s Island, Django / Willy Wonka, Pirates of the Carribean, Shadows, Transcendence. The acting and characters are so similar and they don’t give an effort anymore (or try to, and absolutely overdo it).

      (Sorry I somehow incorporated a Johnny Depp rant in a critic of DiCaprio, their story of decline is just too similar to me. And Gilbert Grape is an amazing movie.)

        Yo get the fuck out of here that movie is awesome lol… It’s so late 90s it’s almost painful. Baz Lurman is a madman.

        Also, “Exit Music: For a Film” written by Radiohead for the end credits? C’mon

        The Beach was just too weird for the Titanic fans. It was right in the wheelhouse for Danny Boyle fans at the time.

        Of course the book was better, but I really enjoyed the movie for what it was.

      Titanic was a hit, but in retrospect, horribly overrated and IMHO absolutely cliche, disrespectful, sacrilegious garbage.

      Remo Williams is an under-rated masterpiece. It should have been an extended franchise, but they weren’t really much into that back then.

        I’m constantly astounded that people seem to unironically enjoy that movie. I don’t want to rain on anyone’s parade so I stay away from discussions about it, but I saw it in theaters (because I also love Jason Statham) and immediately regretted it. It felt like it was written as a joke, but then tried to take itself seriously, and failed at both. I feel like I’m getting pranked by people saying they like that movie.

    I mean… It depends what you consider a bad film.

    IMO, Raul Julia hasn’t been in a single bad movie. And, yes, I have seen Overdrawn at the Memory Bank.

    James Dean. Credited in only 3 films (appeared in a few more as an extra):

    • East of Eden
    • Rebel Without a Cause
    • Giant

    All 3 are above average on IMDb (> 7).

      Plan 9 from Outer Space!

      Dubbed the worst film ever made. To be fair to Bela Lugosi, he had no choice in the matter as he appeared in the film posthumously.
