Career Ending Films

Pop crunch had the list of  15 Career ending films and inspired me to searh for more . This is the proof that the best and most famous actors can be laid low by one or two bad movies. Some of them are awfully bad and some are too good that people expect to much from the actors performance but showed a fail performance.

Tough Guys Don't Dance

Career Ruined: Ryan O'Neal


     Let's open this up with a classic, so we can see the kind of bar we're setting here.  Ryan O'Neal is a decent actor. He was nominated for an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for Love Story. But  Ryan O'Neal's performance in Tough Guys Don't Dance is a high water mark in horrible acting and put his career into the deep.

Lady  in the Water

Totally Busted Career: M.Night Shyamalan

     No, I didn't get distracted and include M. Night's on this list again because he's already in Pop crunch list for his worst adaptation of  'The Last Airbender'. Again I included him  for his performance in the odious Lady In The Water, which he did also direct. As writer Vick Ran, he's visited by the titular lady, who knows that the book he's working on will change the course of all Humanity for the better, so he needs to finish it. Egomaniac much?
The weirdness of casting yourself as a Mary Sue in your own movie aside, Shyamalan is a pretty bad actor, and his scenes are some of the movie's worst. I would tell him not to quit his day job, but he should really quit that too.

Troll 2

Career Ruined: Darren Ewing
      Some bad actors are born to greatness. And some have greatness thrust upon them. That was the case with Darren Ewing, best known for his role in the astoundingly awful cult classic Troll 2. As Arnold, the nerdy friend, he eventually gets transformed into a giant plant, but not before he releases the most unconvincing horror reaction ever. (watch the video )

 Glitter

Carrier ruined: Mariah Carrey
         20th Century Fox and Columbia Pictures thought it is a good idea to put Mariah career into the next level by acting on a movie. One bad script and a very predictable plot plus very bad acting from Mariah.. The result one bad move putting Mariah acting career into shame and her singing career slowly sinking.

The Adventures of Pluto Nash

Career Ruined: Eddie Murphy

       Another career that isn’t quite over yet, it’s worth mentioning that Eddie Murphy's isn’t a particularly prolific movie actor anyway.  He has basically succeeded with three franchises–Shrek. As a voice behind donkey in 'shrek' remind us how great Eddie Murphy in comedy if given a good script. The movie Pluto Nash is annoying, disastrous mess and the humor is so lame that anyone who saw this movie will agree to me. After Pluto Nash, Eddie Murphy try to win back his leading man status as a comedian but failed..

   Pinnochio

 Career Ruined: Roberto Benigni
         Benigni received his Best Actor Oscar for portraying Guido Orefice in movie Life is Beautiful ( La vita è bella), an Italian-Jewish man placed in a concentration camp during World War II. Without the shadow of a doubt, Benigni did a phenomenal job in this film. He captured the emotions of a man whose hope slips away faster by the moment, and managed to stay humorous during this time of pain and anguish for Jewish people.
         Roberto Benigni had a great career in movie industry but made a drastic  move by portraying Pinocchio. A worst adaptation of all time that made. Benigni as Pinocchio looks retarded, He look stupid and trying hard to be funny.

The Passion of Christ

 Career Ruined: Jim Cavieziel
        The film has been highly controversial and received mixed reviews, with the complaint that the extreme violence in the movie obscures its message. It was a major hit, grossing in excess of $600 million during its theatrical release, becoming the highest grossing non-English language film of all time.  The name Jim Caviziel  put a great acting skill and he's been known as the guy who portrayed Jesus and always be.  But what happened? Hollywood shun opportunity to him because his remarkable portrayal as Jesus, No one want to see Jim  doing action films, love story, suspense or whatever because he will be forever known as the Jesus in "The Passion of Christ' . The movie is hard to beat and set high standard for Jim's career and we all know that hollywood is full of shitty movies and remake today.

Beloved

Career Ruined: Oprah Winfrey
     Okay I know many of you will have violent reaction including her on my list. Oprah Winfrey career as a movie actress has been down the drain. Every person who saw this movie try to forget what Oprah did. This heavy drama based on Toni Morrison’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name. The adaptation failed and became boring. Oprah Winfrey's portrayal as a former slave named Sethe is lame or maybe viewers is not used to see her acting in the movie and being Sethe far from Oprah's glamorous life. Oprah still doing voice over and hosting but never try movies showcasing her acting.

The Brady Bunch Movie

Career Ruined: Shelley Long
    Shelley Long wasted her Emmy awards for outstanding  lead actress when she accept the role as Carol Brady in 'The Brady Bunch Movie' . The movie is one of the worst comedy I ever saw and even have two sequels 'A very Brady sequels' that sound like the movie was secretly admitting that "The Brady Bunch Movie' is good at being a very bad movie, same as the second sequel. Wait it doesn't stop there.. Since Brady.. err.. I mean Shelly career is over, they follow up the Brady Movie through 'The Brady Bunch in the White House'.. and that Shelley bids goodbye to her career...

Battlefield Earth

Career Ruined: Barry Pepper
     One of the worst movie ever..Forget John Travolta, we all know that John career ended after this crap movie.How 'bout Barry Pepper?  Mr. Pepper will never have a leading role again after his performance in this movie, but he is lucky enough because he is one of the actor their that's good in his craft. Barry had some strong supporting roles since Battlefield Earth.

 Superman II

Career Ruined: Christopher Reeves
    Now tell me if Christopher Reeves got a decent movie after Superman II.

Freddy Got Fingered

Career Ruined: Tom Green
   Another worst movie and lame comedy..nuff said.. well Tom Green nail down his career being the worst.


Here's the rest to complete my 20 actor with their career ending movie. I'm still thinking if I will stick to my list or look for other who deserve more....
