Gee, I was going to take my pick of John Wayne performances in any number of John Ford or Howard Hawks movies.

I'd also nominate Bob Dylan's performance as "Alias" in the criminally underrated Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid by Sam Peckinpah.

But wasn't it Dylan's performance which caused the critics to low rate the movie?

Andie MacDowell in Four Weddings and a Funeral. Loved the movie but couldn't stand her delivery.

Ryan Philippe in Gosford Park. I guess it wasn't the worst performance ever, but it was pretty far below everyone else in that film.

The Asian kid Clint Eastwood minters in Grand Torino. I know the kid was an amateur, but why not hire a professional actor for the role?
