Car 54, Where Are You? (1994) Jeremy Piven
The Terrible Film: Based on a TV show that ran from 1961 to 1963, this comedy focuses on a mismatched cop partnership trying to work together to protect a witness fr🎃om the mob.
Cue silly slapstick and a host of Razzie noms.
The Great Actor: Best known for playing Ari Gold on TV’s Entourage , for which he won a Golden Globe and t🙈hree Emmy Awards.
Before this, however, he is probably best remembered as being John Cusack’s best mate in a bunch of films, such as Grosse Point Blank and Serendipity .
When Bad Filmmaking Meets Brilliant Acting: Piven plays the citizen at the ce🗹ntre of the film here but it is an utterly thankless role.
Luckily it didn't tarnish an already successful start to his career with a regular role in The Larry Sanders Show .
Skatetown, U.S.A. (1979) Patrick Swayze
The Terrible Film: Rollerskating disco movie starring Swayze as a young skater co🐠mpeting🐻 for a prize of $1000 and a moped.
The film consists of many lon🌄g comedy skits and slapstick scenes, including one prank played with itching powder.
Oh, our sides.
The Great Actor: The object of many a woman’s affections after appearing as the romantic lead in the likes of Dirty Dancing and Ghost . He also became the focus of male respect thanks to macho roles in Road House, Red Dawn and Point Break .
When Bad Filmmaking Meets Brilliant Acting: The film went by relativel♏y unnoticed but Swayze did at least garner some praise for this – his movie debut – with many critics commending him for his screen presence.
In The Name Of The King: A Dungeon Siege Tale (2007) Burt Reynolds
The Terrible Film: A Uwe Boll directed fantasy adventure film starring Jason Statham as a man trying to rescue his kidnapped wife and avenge his son’s death at the hands of a race of animal warriors k🦋nown as the Krugs.
With cheap sets, awful dialogue and shoddy performances all round, the film delivers everything yo🦄u’d expect from Uwe Boll.
The Great Actor: Oscar-nominated legendary actor and star of Deliverance, Smokey And The Bandit and Boogie Nights . Aꦅlso constantly✅ in competition with Tom Selleck to be the owner of the world’s most famous moustache.
When Bad Filmmaking Meets Brilliant Acting: In a film where everyone is woefully ♋miscast, Reyn♕olds actually comes off as one of the worst unfortunately.
Playing ruthless Krug leader King Konreid, Reynol🦋ds ends up just looking annoyed that👍 he’s in the film.
And we can’t blame him.
Glitter (2001) Terrence Howard
The Terrible Film: Mariah Cജarey stars in this rags-to-riches tale about a young nighclub singer in the '80s dreaming of fame and fortune.
The film quickly descends into clichés and dumbed-down storytelling for kids, resulting in a one of the worst mainstream films ever made a💦nd one that was universally panned by everyone.
The Great Actor: Oscar-nominated for Best Actor for his role in Hustle & Flow , Howard has recently appeared in several awards-worthy films, including Crash, Prisoners, The Butler, Red Tails and On The Road .
When Bad Filmmaking Meets Brilliant Acting: Howard gives a somewhat cheesy performance as a cliché⛦;d record-producer-cum-gangster, but it is ಞstill a cut above everything else going on in this film.
