Paul Walker is the best paid worst actor in Hollywood. Laughed my @ss of


Until Jayden Smith gets a bigger paycheck, Paul Walker is definitely the worst actor working in Hollywood today.

I was cracking up throughout this film at just how badly Paul tries to convey different stages of emotions in this film. How is this guy still so bad. He's been acting since the 80s. And yet, there are no signs of improvement in his acting.

I seriously think this guy has a undiagnosed form of retardation. This guy is lucky that he's starring in big time movies that are able to be carried by people like Vin Diesel and The Rock.

Channing Tatum started out as a horrible actor, but was able to improve. A little. But still. Steven Seagal is a Shakespearian thespian compared to Paul Walker.

If I were Paul Walker I would start surrounding myself with actors like Taylor Lautner just so that I wouldn't be considered the worst actor in a film.

So if you're in the mood for a laugh watch Hours.

I didn't think he did that terrible, not god awful. Because I've seen WAY WAY WAY worse than his performance in this, granted his acting in this was a bit wooden at times. And I don't like how he reacted to the news about his wife. Did not seem convincing. But the anger he shows later in the film and his helplessness showed a little bit of range. I think he just did an alright job.

Wait, you're implying Vin Diesel is a *good* actor? Sorry, you almost lost me there.

Actually, I could rephrase some of that to make it more realistic about Vin Diesel:
"This guy is lucky that he's starring in big time movies that are able to be carried by fancy cars, CGI and other actors." (fancy cars - fast and furious // CGI&others - pitch black)

I actually watched Hours with not much of any expectations, just to see what the bashing was all about. Turns out Paul Walker is quite a decent actor if given the right material. He's definitely not excellent, but ...the worst? Yeah now I'm in a mood for a laugh.
