"Still makes me cringe."

"Eiesnberg could have worked. He just did not with the direction the film had. He was supposed to be a Zuckerberg-like amoral and eccentric genius, something that he definitely could pull off. Unfortunately, the writing just ended up making him completely weird and off-putting."

u/DimensioT

"I tried not to get my hopes up (as I don’t for any video game adaptation) but seriously, WTF. WRONG." 

u/RadAttitude

"Sully is a charismatic, witty, funny, charming badass who always beats his enemies because he's not only good at what he does, he's also so wise in his old age that he's always one step ahead. Mark Wahlberg just plays his generic tough guy role in the film that he always does."

"Five-foot-six Tom Cruise as six-foot-five Jack Reacher." 

u/porque_pigg

"If you hadn't read the books, you wouldn't really know why it was bad casting as Cruise did a pretty good job with the role."  

u/johnperkins21

"Honestly, Don Cheadle showed how Terrence Howard was miscasted. Every time I see War Machine, I just can't see Terrence Howard giving the same." 

u/noone56789000

"I like the actor, but he shouldn't have been cast."

u/Small_Introduction94

"They were going for the 'anti-Peter Parker' and I think he works in that respect."

"I came here to say this... Loudly."

"They kept trying to cast early Keanu in period pieces — Dangerous Liaisons, Much Ado About Nothing. He just takes me right out of it."  

u/Flurb4

"It's the funniest casting choice ever made for the worst reasons. I remember crying with laughter when I found out." 

u/molwalk

"I get that sustaining the voices of the Mario games would diminish the emotion, but meet us half way…"  

u/Meritania

"He couldn't have appeared more bored if he tried, and he was at least 20 years too old." 

u/WriterNotFamous

"Donna is supposed to be 39. It's a plot point. Sophie is 20 and Donna had her at 19. Meryl Streep was most definitely not 39 when they made the film and Cher could not be her mother. Certainly not the way Cher played the Granny in the sequel." 

u/Shanstergoodheart

"I have never seen my wife so mad. She adored the book and he single-handedly ruined it for her." 

u/hockeynoticehockey

"I'm with your wife. His Italian accent was ridiculous, and he was awful. Infuriating."  

u/CrazyCaliCatLady

"I've always said that they made an Adam Sandler movie but forgot to tell Adam Sandler." 

u/iiooiooi

"He just cannot sing. I couldn't watch the whole film, it was just a mockery."

u/darsynia

"Totally agree on this one. His portrayal reminded me of the casting of Pierce Brosnan in Mamma Mia!. Great actor, definitely NOT a singer."  

u/Proof_Opportunity_58

"Great actor but totally wrong for that role."

u/Rolmeista

"Cumberbatch was a robot in the role. He had zero charisma, which is an extremely important element for that character, IMO."  

u/HiVi48

"He's the least convincing villain I've ever seen. He had the intimidating demeanor of a wet wipe." 

u/molwalk

"It was absolutely horrendous. If the rest of the cast wasn't so perfect, she would have ruined the movie."

u/ExperienceDaveness

"Good actor, but if you go back and watch James Earl Jones play the role then you see how it should be. Denzel just doesn't have that rage in him."
