Who's responsible for ruining the movie by casting Kevin Costner?

Just wondering how someone with serious intentions in making a good movie could ruin it by casting such a complete *beep* actor like Kevin Costner. It's just not that he's overrated, he's completely useless in any assembly. He wouldn't even be considered decent in a company of "days of our lives" actors. Atleast not by non retarded people.

His last line in court about not stop fighting or whatever he said should earn him a couple of wins for best blemish comedy though.

Kevin Costner ruins movies for me as well. His voice is terrible

He didn't ruin it but a lack of charsima and ropey acting from Costner stopped the film from being great in my opinion. I value acting quite highly it's probably the first thing that I look for in a film.

Costner was pretty bad in this film, especially going face-to-face with Deniro, who is a much better actor. His "never stop fighting" line is cringe-worthy bad.
