Tom Cruise Front-Runner for Worst Acting Award

Yahoo! Movies: Movie News –
Cruise will compete for the year’s worst actor award with Will Ferrell (“Bewitched,” “Kicking & Screaming”), Jamie Kennedy (“Son of the Mask”), Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson (“Doom”) and Rob Schneider (“Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo”).

It seems to me that Rob Schneider has done some work that wasn’t so bad. His original “American Gigolo” movie, for example, was sort of cute. I haven’t paid any attention to Jamie Kennedy, so I can’t comment on him. The Rock — hey, who watches him for his acting, anyway?? And Will Ferrell — I know he’s famous but I haven’t paid any attention to him either.

Tom Cruise, on the other hand — oh, I’ve been noticing him for years! He’s a terrible actor — always has been! He’s completely wooden. He’s one-dimensional. He’s got a single sort of “duh” look that he assumes whenever he’s supposed to be “feeling” something on screen. And he’s ugly — in an “electrolysis cured my uni-brow” sort of way. AND, do I even need to mention that he’s really stupid? (I mean, really… Scientology?!? What a joke!)

I’ll certainly be rooting for him to win at the Razzies, though. It would be good to see him get some of the recognition he truly deserves.
