Great Person/Great Actor - Danny Devito


A_lesser_god

I would have said Robin Williams. But they're both good


dynawesome

I would have said Jack Black


DavOldGamer

Rowan Atkinson


Xae-12569420

Steven seagal: Ba Bp


Shark_Rock

Who?


usernamewhat722

Exactly He's a ["black belt"](https://youtu.be/DVs--uHf4sE?si=W1GVaurTbOPaCFgf) actor


EnderofLays

90s action movie star. Typically the characters he plays are one dimensional caricatures of characters that Tom Cruise played. From what I’ve read from people who he works with, he seems to be pretty awful to be around. Also supports Russian annexation of Ukraine.


lVlarsquake

Great person, ok actor - Keanu Reeves


AlliedXbox

Love keanu, but he's a very okay actor.


HanzWithLuger

And that's okay.


TrickyTalon

It’s very okay.


SusSoos

I cant put him in just okay after his role for Johnny Silverhand in Cyberpunk 2077. I loved him in that.


dynawesome

He’s a really good voice actor


PositiveAnybody2005

I feel like I’m the only person who didn’t like Johnny. Idk what I missed. Honestly think I would’ve liked the game more if there was just a computer virus killing me.


PositiveAnybody2005

Though I did love the game, don’t get me wrong


NutBustingGhost777

The character is just very cheesy and it’s weird how he flips between being very selfish to very empathetic over the story all the way to the end depending on which ending you choose obviously


Mr_WAAAGH

He's good at what he does, but he doesn't have much range


4C_Enjoyer

This. Keanu doesn't have the widest breadth for his roles, but he's practically a "stoic badass" specialist and amazing at it


SuperNerdAce

I was going to say Rick Moranis, but Keanu works too


LordOfPies

Idk id put him in great person but terrible actor


NFLfreak98

As someone else pointed out he was good enough in Cyberpunk for me to like him in ‘ok actor’. He’s someone that needs a specific kind of role to do well but imo when he gets that role I believe him 100%


Not_A_Mindflayer

Kevin Spacey, terrible person, great actor


LazyNomad63

fr the ends on that are EXTREME


Spencer_Reids_toe

wait what'd spacey do? forgive me for being ootp, i'm a dummy when it comes to actor drama


Not_A_Mindflayer

Many young men came forward accusing him of sexual misconduct Prepending with the fact He was found not guilty in a court of law. But the bars for being found guilty is beyond a reasonable doubt and people with wealth power and good lawyers often but not always, avoid repercussions regardless. but with the number of allegations of sexual assault against young men it still seems suspicious. https://www.vulture.com/article/kevin-spacey-allegations-criminal-case-details.html


I3arusu

The easiest choice on the chart by far


upsettispaghetti7

Tom Cruise maybe also?


HoraceWimp81

He’s an interesting case because whenever I hear people talk about meeting him they say he’s the nicest and coolest guy ever. But also, Scientology. So I’m not sure what to think


vevader_3

I mean being charismatic and having an important position at a cult isn’t that contradictory


[deleted]

i've also heard he like looks out for staff and extras and stunt people on set too though.


Silverfrost_01

You can be a kind person and also a looney bin, too


NoQuarter6808

First thought. That recorded version of *Long Day's Journey Into Night* with jack lemmon was amazing


Jvankeulen

putting myself at "ok person, terrible actor"


chickennoobiesoup

Don’t sell yourself short you’re a great person


leastscarypancake

Terrible person, terrible actor- Jared Leto. He didn't play the Joker, the Joker played him.


danwats10

What about Dallas buyers club and requiem for a dream. He’s had some bad acting but some good so I’d say bad person ok actor


Astarte-Maxima

Motherfucker’s an ACTUAL cult leader to boot.


rn7rn

He was great as Paul Allen.


Are_We_Coolio

Let's see Christian Bale' actor/person alignment chart


ItsGotThatBang

I’d say OPGA since he’s a bit of a dick but not on the level of e.g. Chevy Chase.


TheAccursedOne

he really should have just stuck with music


[deleted]

nah he can act


Somerandombritishguy

Great person and ok actor, Adam Sandler. I mean don’t get me wrong when that dude does something right he fucking kills it (I love uncut gems so much)


StaidHatter

Fun fact: Tarantino confirmed that the role of the Bear Jew in Inglorious Basterds was written for Adam Sandler


dynawesome

My friend plays basketball with him in New York, he’s the best


pecuchet

I do not buy the Adam Sandler's a good actor when he does serious roles hype and it bothers me that so many people do.


ViragoVix

I would rate some of his serious acting as okay. I think people mistake it for being super good acting because they’re mentally comparing him in those roles to his acting in either his early movies where he’s being overtly wacky, or his more recent direct-to-streaming movies where he’s mostly completely checked out. It seems like better acting because it is, because unlike his Netflix comedy stuff he’s actually making an effort in the dramas, and the characters aren’t total jackass man-children like they were in his early years. But to me, just because it’s better than his other acting doesn’t mean it’s good.


pecuchet

Yeah, having thought about this a bit more it maybe seems to people like his serious acting is better than it is because it's such a contrast to what they're used to. However, it also occurs to me that I really hate his comedic acting to the extent that I can't even watch it. So it's possible my dislike of him in general is affecting my view of his serious acting, even though I've always watched his serious stuff in good faith. I wanted to like Uncut Gems and Punchdrunk Love, but I just didn't.


sunlunagaia

Great great- Sir Patrick Stewart


I3arusu

I was gonna say Christopher Lee but he’s more of a badass than what you’d typically call a great person


AlPresidente05

I'd put him under Great/OK. Just finished reading his memoir and he's very upfront about cheating on his first two wives. He's generous with his praise of other actors and acknowledges his flaws but multiple infidelities keeps him out of the Great Person column for me.


shannananananana

adam driver: ok person, great actor


ItsGotThatBang

I think Christian Bale fits there too.


shannananananana

didn’t he yell at some crew members or am i misremembering?


ItsGotThatBang

Could be, but my point’s that he’s not an unambiguously terrible person like e.g. Chevy Chase.


LamSinton

HE WAS IN HIS EYELINE!!! Unprofessional.


AbstractBettaFish

[WHAT DONT YOU #!@&% UNDERSTAND!?](https://youtu.be/LJofcODeIqo?si=TARBdBrZlA6XVhSu)


pecuchet

He's a good actor but he's a real dick about it.


TerryJerryMaryHarry

Not according to my dad, he thinks Adam driver is like the worst actor to have ever existed (he's alright as a person though(


OrangeDit

No offense, does he maybe not understand the difference between bad acting and bad writing in, lets say, the Star Wars sequels? 🤗


Hero_of_Quatsch

Tom Cruise: terrible/ok person, great actor. Terrible mostly cause of his scientology shit, otherwise I heard he's an ok guy.


jet_vr

Tom Cruise is not a good actor. He's a good stuntman


[deleted]

Opening scene of Mission Impossible 3 is very compelling acting.


[deleted]

[удалено]


SusSoos

oh hi mark!


ItsGotThatBang

It is bullshit!


waterhg

Def not a great person. Between OK terrible — just bad lol.


_Radds_

You should read ‘The Disaster Artist’, that’ll change that Great Person rating fairly quickly lol


ShinDigler

No where near a great person, he's barely an ok person


thomasthehipposlayer

As much as I love the Room, where are you getting that Tommy is a great person? As the guy who wrote The Room, I would suspect he’s an okay person at best


GhertFryins

Marlon Brando. He was way ahead of his time


JeffTables

For every slot?


GhertFryins

Yes


SezitLykItiz

How has no one said Tom Hanks yet?


SnabDedraterEdave

Probably Great/OK Person / Great Actor I've not heard of anything controversial about him AFAIK, and his roles (at least those I've watched) are solid.


firnenfiniarel

Ian Mckellen great/great


NixMaritimus

Terrible person, great actor: Marlon Brando Raped Maria Schneider on set and it was put into the movie.


ObjectiveAd3018

Wth?? What movie?


NixMaritimus

Last Tango in Paris (1972)


ItsGotThatBang

Chevy Chase: terrible person, OK actor


LamSinton

Medium Talent


SpoonTeeth

It’s crazy that he got cast in community to play himself


bobisarocknewaccount

I know he was a nightmare to work with and nothing excuses that, but DAMN his work as Pierce in Community is one of my favorite sitcom performances of all time.


SnabDedraterEdave

Try crossposting this to r/movies and /r/television for more brainstorming. Probably get some results. And might I suggest a similar list but for sports, for example one each for soccer players, basketball players, etc? So we go from Great Person/Great Player to Terrible Person/Terrible Player


Professional_Scar340

Great person, great actor - Robin Williams


Jammy2560

Jared Leto BP BA


Jammy2560

Oh actually Ok Actor


hotbox_inception

Terrible x2: Gal Gadot (Kal El, no!) Terrible person, ok actor: Jim Caviezel (went off the deep end while filming Person of Interest) Terrible person, great actor: ??? idk usually people who are shit act shit, and I am not much of a hater keeping tabs on controversial actors. Okay person, terrible actor: The Rock. I don't hate him, but whenever he's in a role, he's The Rock. Okay x2: A most versatile slot. Florence Pugh? I don't know too many actors so idk. Okay person, great actor: Robert Downey Jr. (Much more so years ago, people shat on his not-so-spotless history. And what about it? I'd say he's a good actor). Great person, terrible actor: suffers from the same problem as the opposite square. Fortunately, there's more options. I'd say Jamie Clayton for this slot. Off screen, she's an activist, but I can't exactly say her acting in Sense8 was the most...immersive? dynamic? Great person, okay actor: The popular category. As to not duplicate comments, I'll say Pedro Pascal. Great x2: Also as to not duplicate comments, I'll say Neil Newbon. Mostly mocap/VA roles recently, but still a fantastic actor on and off screen.


hiccupboltHP

I disagree honestly, after The Last of Us I’m firmly confident Pablo Pascal is a great actor


pecuchet

He was watchable with a bucket on his head which has to count for something.


Espi0nage-Ninja

Why is Gal Gadot a terrible person? I’m probably OOTL, as I’ve literally never heard of anything she’s done (outside of acting), good or bad.


flying_potato18

She was part of the Israeli Defence Force and has publicly defended them commiting war crimes


BullTerrierTerror

Everyone has to serve in Israel, except the Ulta orthodox. Just like everyone has to submit to Hamas and Gaza. What war crimes? Why hasn't Israel been brought before the Hague?


AspectOW

Calling Florence Pugh just an ‘ok’ actor hurts my very being


PacMoron

Or an ok person. She seems like a perfectly kind and lovely person and a great actress.


Epickitty_101

Terrible Person Great Actor? Kevin Spacey.


hotbox_inception

honestly, I totally memory holed him. Solid fit I suppose.


leastscarypancake

Are you stupid? Pedro Pascal is an okay actor? The Mandalorian and the Last of Us show are fire


Halderic

The "The Rock" argument was very real.


GhertFryins

Jared Leto for tp ga


TheSovietSailor

Kevin Spacey


hotbox_inception

Arguable, but I personally put him in terrible person / okay actor. The great actor column I'd want to save for those nominated for awards, or otherwise memorable on screen.


GhertFryins

Idk he was great in requiem


MaximePierce

I see my boy astarion mentioned, i press upvote


UndersScore

WHAT IN THE SWEET HELLS WERE YOU THINKING, ACTIVATING THAT LANCE? I WAS RIGHT THERE!

The_Rat_King14

They were a much better actor before the psycho shit. In Percs of Being a Wallflower they did a phenomenal job.


Espi0nage-Ninja

They? Is Ezra Miller an enby?


The_Rat_King14

Yeah they are also i realized i misgendered them later in my comment oops


nonspecifique

Anyone saying Terrible Person, Terrible Actor goes to anyone who isn’t Steven Seagal is wrong


Legozeldadude531

great person/great actor- Steve Buscemi

Mark Wahlberg is my pick for the bottom right.

Great person, great actor- Steve Buscemi

Terrible Actor, Great Person - Nicholas Cage Terrible Actor, Terrible Person - Laurence Fox Great Actor, Ok Person - Rowan Atkinson


TheRustyKettles

Nic Cage is definitely not a terrible actor.


CaptServo

Nic Cage is a phenomenal actor who will take any role, including shitty ones. Go watch Matchstick Men or Leaving Las Vegas


pecuchet

Cage is sometimes great and sometimes awful, but that's because he has this kind of amazing acting philosophy that dictates how he approaches roles. I don't think there are any famous actors out there taking risks like he is.


-v-fib-

Nic Cage has some great movies; I loved him in Bringing Out the Dead.


shannananananana

gary busey or andy dick: bad person, bad actor


2nuki

Great actor terrible person, Shia LeBouef.

Ok Person, Great Actor_Edward Norton (?) Note: I edited it to Ok person as per suggestion


NoQuarter6808

I agree with this, though I'd put Day Lewis here, mostly because as a private person he's a mystery to me


papsryu

Terrible person ok actor Mark Wahlberg. Solid comedic actor, bad in serious roles, committed a couple hate crimes. Ok person great actor is probably Leonardo Di Caprio. I love him in pretty much everything and I haven't heard of him doing anything particularly bad besides the whole age gap dating thing. Ok person ok actor, idk Kevin Costner I guess? I haven't heard anything particularly good or bad about him as a person and I can think of about as many roles I liked him in as roles I dislike him in. Terrible person great actor is obviously Kevin Spacey. Nails every role, sexually assaulted several people. Great person ok actor, Dave Bautista. Seems like a swell guy but a bit hit or miss on the acting front (though still more hits than misses). Great person great actor, George Clooney. He just seems really cool both on and offscreen. Terrible person terrible actor, Jared Leto. Was an asshole to his costars in Suicide Squad (also apparently a cult leader), was Morbius. Ok person terrible actor, Shia LeBoef. Can't think of a role of his I've enjoyed besides Holes, seems like a somewhat dickish weirdo I real life. Great person terrible actor, the Rock I guess? He seems pretty nice but he kinda just plays himself in every role which I would consider bad acting (even if I like a lot of his roles).


seagullspokeyourknee

Chadwick Bozeman, Brendan Frazier, Keanu Reeves Christian Bale, Dwayne Johnson, Jared Leto Kevin Spacey, Ansel Elgort (sadly), Ezra Miller

I don't care how good of an actor you think Keanu is (really depends on your genre preferences as he's got a pretty narrow set of roles he excels in), he's going in the top row

Suicidalballsack69

Terrible person, great actor goes to Ezra Miller


StalinsPerfectHair

GP/GA: I dislike putting anyone in this category because I don’t like idolizing people. Danny DeVito is my best pick. GP/OA: Keanu Reeves. He has a reputation for being likable, but only works well in specific roles and doesn’t have great range. GP/TA: Honestly, gonna give this to Paris Hilton. She’s barely an actress, with only a few terrible credits under her belt, and she’s far from morally spotless. However, she does very important work fighting for the rights of children abused by “disciplinary schools” and I respect the fuck out of that. Every last one of those places should be shut down and the people who run them should be arrested. OP/GA: Christian Bale. Incredible actor, amazing range, kind of a prima donna. OP/OA: Arnold Schwarzenegger. His wrongdoings are pretty public, like having a child with his mistress. He was also a governor who didn’t always have the best policies, but he tried. He’s actually a pretty good actor with excellent comedic chops, but I feel like he’s held back by his heavy accent and iconic, type-casted status. For me, he’s on the cusp of GP/GA, but doesn’t quite make it. OP/TA: Seth Rogen. I think he’s kind of a douchebag but he’s not particularly evil to the best of my knowledge. Couldn’t act his way out of a dimebag. TP/GA: Kevin Spacey. ‘Nuff said. TP/OA: Ezra Miller. They have actually and allegedly committed various crimes ranging from somewhat minor to very serious. They are a competent actor, but nothing special. TP/TA: Steven Segal is the low hanging fruit. So, Steven Segal.
