Has anyone had less range than The Rock in film history?

[Poetical Poltergeist]

So you're saying the rock is better in comedy? And since they do action that requires no range? I disagree.

 

[feelosofer]

No actually The Rock has more range than he gets credit for.

 

[bangbreh]

yeah van damme and seagal instantly came to mind, along with michael madsen.

kill bills, reservoir dogs, sin city
dude ain't shyt

Jason Statham...







And Jason Statham is one of my favorite actors...

 

[Ribbs]

Action stars don't convey much range at all but Dwayne has showed it. He signed up for a new franchise based on Robert Ludlum's books, the same writer who did the Bourne series.

 

[How Sway?]

hes not the only one
vin diesel
mark walhberg
denzel washington

 

[David_TheMan]

Bruce Willis has even less range.
I swear even in the 6th Sense that motherfukker was the same man he was in Die Hard

Does the rock have any iconic characters? Classic films? Classic lines?

Even with that accent
Arnold >>>>

LOL...Arnold has a whole career while the Rock got cracking just over 15 years ago...get real

 

[R=G]

Wasn't walking tall a bit more dramatic? I remember him being good in it. Right now he's and action hero I'm sure the more rangey roles will come later in his career. Let him get his $$$

Game Plan
The Rundown
Be Cool
San Andreas
Gridlock Gang
Faster
Race to Witch Mountain

This is all different kind of $hit....not to mention all that kind he pulled off LIVE on Saturday Night Live in 3 different years. Been proven a long time ago.

Word. But I still believe he is going to progress and improve as an actor, I don't see why he can't, his career is far from over.

Arnolds first 10 years >>>>>Rocks first 15

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

I will go watch anything where The Rock is the star. word to @R=G

He don't have to show too much range because his own personality is more than enough, he's the new Arnold. Learn to love it.

Honestly in terms of sheer volume of entertaining/iconic/really rewatchable films, Arnold can go toe-to-toe against almost anyone.

I have to look up the recepits on that but probably on point...he has some VERY iconic roles. There is only one Arnold but make no damn mistake about it..there's only ONE Rock.

Terminator 2, to this very day, is one of the most watchable movies EVER. I love it.
