What are some Examples of "Phoned in" Performances in movies?

[2CT]

Megan Fox in every Transformers film she was in

 

[Danie84]

Nicolas Cage in EVERYTHING after Face Off

 

[nieman]

Pretty much everyone in The Expendables joints. That forced humor

I think they're mostly just having fun in those Expendables flicks. Especially 3.

Josh Brolin in Jonah Hex

 

[Dr. Acula]

Anything Harrison ford is in lately. In fact he looks like he hates being alive period.

 

[Penny 95]

I think a lot of actors phone it in on the big blockbuster sequel movies, because it's clearly for a check.(X-Men, Avengers, The Hobbit etc) Most actors prefer to do smaller character driven films that allow them to show off their skills.

Mark Ruffulo playing Bruce Banner, dude is straight stealing money. He's legit in other roles like that wrestling flick.

Edward Norton set the bar so fukking high only rivaled by Iron Man one Robert Downy.

Agreed

 

[Sensitive Blake Griffin]

Punch drunk love too.

there's a great theory about how his character is actually superman

 

[Jeffrey Lebowski]

He got an Academy nom for it, but any time I've watched A New Hope as an adult I'm convinced Alec Guinness was loaded the whole time he was on set. Talked shyt on the movie in letters home and resented it defining his career later on, as well.

Jennifer Lawrence in X-Men Apocalypse. In fact pretty much the whole "First Class" trinity. Lawrence sticks out the most though.

 

[PlaidShirtHipsterBoy]

Bruce willis has been phoning it in for years now. An example would be the movie Extraction. He filmed his scenes in less than a day and left.

 

[Here Comes the Pain]

Everything done by Michael Cera.

I think it's his nonchalant demeanor in these movies.

Mark wahlberg in planet of the apes.

Cuba gooding Jr in Snow dogs

Marlon wayans last 3 or 4 performance.

 

[Bryan Danielson]

 

[.r.]

.

 

[Lucky_Lefty]

im mainly talking about his career after he hit big and became a "leading man". Swingers & Made are legit...but like around Old School and on he just became the same fast talking dude. he's interchangeable in each flick no matter what its about.

he made me want to drink a liter of clorox in "The Cell"....also, why the fukk was I watching "The Cell"??

 

[semicko82]

It looks like a tie between Harrison Ford and Bruce Willis
