ok, I am not here to bash Ben, because there is a little truth in what you say, Hoolywood is lacking in the area of actors, but in Bens defense, as horrible as some of the scripts have been and what directors are expecting of him, he has played a few parts that were not the same person each time, there was O'Banion, the young Jack Ryan, reindeer games, forces of nature and many more as well as Good Will hunting. I am not a huge Ben fan, but I think you are a little jaded when it comes to his acting ability, maybe he is better looking...you want Jlo?. He is not the best actor out there right now, but he is not as bad as you say. In fact as I am sitting here typing this, I am becomming more of a fan thinking back at some of the parts he has played. In fact, now, I like him as an actor, he brings something to the screen that...say Russell Crow or even his counter part Matt D cant bring. And arguably so these guys are some of the best out there. Maybe you dont see what I or others may see, but when it comes down to it my friend, we arent the ones making the millions and getting in front of the camera "acting" like we are someone else... and you can act with one lip...you would probably make a good extra for either a porn film or night of the living dead part VVII....but hen what do I know because I just Joe Dirt
