Kiefer Sutherland

OMG yes. He's super irritating. Done a few good films but on the whole a ton of tripe. Always have a soft spot for Con Air tho. Put the bunny back in the box!

8mm was a good one too.

Yes! Con Air.
Fantastic movie, adrenalin inducing and great pace. And the director managed to get the best out of him.

One of the books that I liked was Leaving Las Vegas.
I couldn't get myself to watch the movie, tho.
I could just picture Nicholas Cage's whiny discourses and whiny long faces, trying to substitute for brooding and raw existential despair.
And as for Elizabeth Shue - some say she's a good actress, but I found her to lack the IT factor and be lackluster.
 
At a reported height of 5'8", he would be three inches taller than another guy who never had a leading role --- James Cagney at 5'5".

I remember it being super depressing! Shue was very lovely but no great actress really.
 
Did 5'1" Mickey Rooney ever have a leading role ???? hmmmm, lemme think ..... ????
 
Another annoying one is Mickey Rourke.
The starring male role in Wild Orchid and 9-1/2 months- maybe sleazy, but sexy: not.
 
Acting World's creepiest creep for me ?

James Woods.

Followed by Billy Drago.

I absolutely dispise Nicolas Cage. He was brilliant in Leaving Las Vegas. He either really did his homework, knew first hand, or just got lucky. Either way, he played a desperate alcoholic very very well. However, he did throw in a few things I hate about him, overall tho, great performance. I'd burn the rest of his work.

Whatever the boxing didn't mess up, the plastic surgery more than made up for.
 
Only the most ardent fan is aware of Kiefer's oh-so-brief role as the German sniper who kills Vin Diesel in Saving Private Ryan.
You'll have to put the credits on slo-mo because the make-up will never give a hint that it's really Sutherland.
 
Yes! Con Air.

Con Air was a horrible movie. First of all as someone whose native tongue is Southern that is the worst southern accent ever portrayed on film. It's worse than when Russell Crowe tries to speak American.

Also there is absolutely no excusing dropping a very nice 1967 Corvette Roadster to its untimely demise.

I was out in the East Mesa early one morning and I actually met a Conair pilot. He flies Conair for ice. If you are a criminal facing deportation you get Shackled dragged onto the airplane and deported to your home country. Some of which are very likely to execute you when you get off the plane. The people he's transporting very much do not want to go.
 
Cliff Clavin strikes again. A native tongue AND ConAir reference in the same shitpist!

"The Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System (JPATS), nicknamed "Con Air", or ICE Air is an agency of the federal government of the United States charged with the transportation of persons in legal custody among prisons, detention centers, courthouses, and other locations. It is the largest prison transport network in the world. Though primarily used by the Federal Bureau of Prisons or U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, JPATS also assists military and state law enforcement.

The agency is managed by the United States Marshals Service out of the JPATS headquarters in Kansas City, Missouri.[3] JPATS was formed in 1985 from the merger of the Marshals Service air fleet with that of the Immigration and Naturalization Service. JPATS completes over 350,000 prisoner/alien movements per year. Air fleet operations are located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, with hubs in Las Vegas, Nevada; Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Additionally, the Federal Transfer Center at Oklahoma City's Will Rogers World Airport was built especially to facilitate prisoner transport on JPATS. "
