Is Ray Liotta the worst actor to play a leading role in an all-time great movie?

[ThePresence]

I can't stand the guy. He hasn't played a convincing part since Goodfellas. I think he may even be worse than Keanu Reeves.

 

[daveymark]

I thought he was pretty good in Narc

 

[Skunkwourk]

I can only remember him in goodfellas, no escape, hannibal and field of dreams...

He's been in many movies, but IMO he sucked in most of them. Goodfellas he was great in, and he was ok in a few other minor roles, like Blow.

oh c'mon, he was so believable in hannibal when his brain was being served for dinner, that was some fine acting there

 

[Sluggo]

I guess I havent seen anything he has done since Goodfellas...but I damn sure dont remember his voice from Family Guy !?

 

[anxi80]

i dont know why people hate on liotta. he was one of the stars in probably one of the best movies in the history of cinema. thats right, im talking about 'operation dumbo drop'.

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

No, he's not. Pauley Shore was terrible in Biodome.

I forgot to add identity. He was alright in that, but Cusack was the lead

 

[RaynorWolfcastle]

Ashton Kutcher.

This thread is now over, nothing to see here

operation dumbo drop

 

[Conky]

So, he has a drug problem? At least he isn't doing a Tom Sizemore. :laugh:

Who would want to hear his voice, it's so damn annoying.

 

[y2kc]

Sophia Coppola (sp) made the GodFather 3 unwatchable.

 

[FoBoT]

he's ok

 

[BrokenVisage]

He acted like a good "hard ass" in No Escape.

 

[Tobolo]

yeah he blows. Goodfellas was great. Nothing since.

 

[Mucho]

Mike Myers and Adam Sandler are much worst.

They have never played leading roles in all-time great movies, have they?

 

[nakedfrog]

I've never liked him. Something about his face just irritates me.

 

[Platypus]

I liked him in Blow.

Exactly what I was going to say. He's gotten a lot better since Goodfellas.

Yeah, but Sizemore is twice the actor Liotta is when he can stay sober enough to think.

 

[Killercavecow]

I watched Goodfellas this weekend, I've always thought he did well in that movie.


Was cool to see Christopher from Sopranos as Spyder. Joe Pesci did him wrong.

He was good in Blow. I think he's a decent actor. Better than Keanu Reeves anyway.
