I'm not here to argue that Twilight doesn't suck. It does. Hard. But Kristen Stewart is not that bad. She did a pretty good job in Adventureland and Into The Wild. Don't judge her only by this horrible, horrible movie. Keanu has been in great movies indeed. I love the ones you mentioned. But what makes those movies great is not, I repeat, NOT Keanu's acting. Except maybe Bill & Ted. And Empire of The Sun was great. I saw that movie 2 times before realizing that was Bale. |
fair point, but if the acting doesn't sit right the whole movie will not go well, for me anyway.
so in that case, i can't really say that Reeves is a bad actor, because if i couldn't tolerate his acting i wouldn't enjoy those movies so much.
and in Twilight, she really, REALLY sucked. she was wooden, had no natural-ness about her, and i just found her performance worse than anyone else's.
Empire of the Sun was the first Christian Bale movie i saw, when i was about 10. i loved it. it makes me cry every time i see it. most child actors suck, and it was a deep, sad movie, but he did really well.
