IMO, I find her acting one-dimensional and mediocre best, and being 'beautiful' has nothing to do with being talented and able to portray a wide range of characters and emotions.

I never said outer appearance heeds great acting. You are adding words to what I said. I just said she was beautiful and she is regardless if you think she can act or not. Maybe you didn't see Monster's Ball, hence she portrayed a wide range of emotions.

Introducing Dorothy Dandridge was also a tour de force of acting on her part!
I actually think Ben Affleck can do good work IF he's given a decent script. Eg; I liked Hollywoodland a lot. I just wish he'd stop choosing crappy scripts to work with.

Let's agree to disagree, shall we? I'm allowed to have my own opinion...and what the critics say means nothing to me.

Keanu Reeves - man couldn't act his way out of a paper bag. The only role he nailed was Ted in the Bill & Ted series.
Halle Berry is a good actress; but I find she is miscast....a lot. There are so many roles she was in and I just felt right away that they could have done so much better with someone else (i.e. Losing Isaiah, The X-Men Series, that James Bond movie....).

Ben Affleck has to be the most charisma-free major star of either gender. He is so lacking in charisma, he is almost like a black hole of charisma that sucks charisma away from his co-stars and destroys it.
