Actors you just don't get...

Yeah it's not really fair to judge Sacha Baron Cohen based on Borat. As much as i find it amusing, Borat doesn't even come close to his Ali G character plus he is also insanely quick when it comes to making great off the top one liners.

Would someone please explain to me why Kevin Costner has a career? Its not so much that he's a bad actor (he's only mediocre, not bad) as it is the roles he picks. Bull Durham, Field of Dreams, Dances With Wolves and For The Love Of The Game (note: 3 of those are about baseball) were good, but everything else I've seen him in has been either mediocre or shit.

I don't like Costner either. He seemed really out of place in The Untouchables, almost too 'nice' to be apart of such a story. I think the films OK but it's a shame Mickey Rourke wasn't cast as Elliot Ness he would of been awesome in that role.
