Did Blake Lively ruin it

The movie had a great story and beautiful visual style..with some able supporting actors in Travolta, Del Toro and Hayek. The two male leads were okay..

But how terrible was Blake Lively? She has absolutely no screen presence and no understanding of what acting is..and to make matters worse, they gave her the voice over, her voice has no power or charm to it..she has no idea how to narrate a story..

What a terrible casting blunder.

I think she did well so no.

The plan is you drink a nice tall glass of shut the *beep* up.

No she helped to make it good imo.

Blake is bland. She seems to have good humor, style, intelligent, conversationalist, but her acting is hit or miss, she's had a few roles that she did really great in, maybe they were closest to who she is. I think her most realistic performances were in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.
