Is Chris Tucker the biggest underachiever in the history of acting?

[BlackMajik]

Chris Tucker really is a big fukking underachiever imo. He proved in Dead Presidents that he can really act but he just kept limiting himself to making Rush Hour movies smh

Big fan of my my boy Chris but he could've done a lot more

 

[My Girl is Bow Legged]

He's a good supporting actor but I don't think he carries a movie by himself at any point of his career. nikka admitted he wouldn't even read scripts and just ad-libbed most of his lines. I think he achieved exactly what he was supposed to all things considered

 

[Doomsday]

I don't think he under achieved. But I do think he could have had a Kevin Hart-like run considering he was the IT guy at one point and could've been everywhere.

In order to underachieve ya gotta at least be out dere tryin.

nikka just seemed like he was content wit Rush Hour shyt n dat's it.

Seriously think breh shot himself n da foot & sold himself short career wise.

 

[Spaceman Piff]

not in terms of his acting ability..

overall in his career, he probably should've had at least 2-3 more good movies.

but the movies he made take him out of underachiever status.

Exactly

No, he's not the biggest one. He just made a dumb ass decision to bank on the Rush Hour franchise like it was gonna be the Beverly Hills Cop of buddy cop movies. There are a number of fukk ups who need the title.

thats exactly what i said in the Kevin Hart thread. When he was locked in the Rush Hour contract he shoulda been doing stand up since he couldnt do any movies.

Go on

umm.... DL Hughley & Rickey Smiley?

I don't feel like they could have achieved much of anything lol

 

[jadillac]

no, don't think he was much on that hollywood life.

He was making $20 mil for rush hour......he just didnt manage his taxes well.

I think he was fine just chilling and living his life
