I am not talking about personal opinions of actors.
I do not like Tom Cruise but he can deliver some charisma and box office profits.
I think Val Kilmer in his day was an insanely good actor and hate to admit admit it but George Clooney can seriously act as well. So could Keaton and so can Christian Bale, but people have various opinions on Batman.
Anyways, I went to see Terminator yesterday. Theater was all but empty. This movie must be seriously under performing. I did not think the movie sucked.
But, some b team player as John Conner? Christ, what were they thinking? And Kyle Reese? For real. Because everyone in the future is running around At about six four and hitting the gym and has zero trace of poor socialization, lack of school, carving out a life desperately day to day. And zero reverse crazy father son chemistry between the two.
The only lesser chemistry was between Reese and Sarah Conner. It was like a gay dude at a strip joint for their chemistry.
Any ways, I remember in the first movie Sarah seemed actually vulnerable, cared, and then in the second truly pulled off the scarred, haunted, role. And Reese was jacked up and not quite all there. A fanatic with beyond ptsd desperate to do his mission.
The casting seemed really off for the third movie to me as well as this one.
Anyways, what other movies do you think totally missed casting wise?
You know, the expendables movies with not have worked with the guys from magnum pi, the a team, and mcguyver. Something just has to work actor and chemistry wise.
