Obviously you've never seen Pearl Harbor, Jersey Girl, The Sum of All Fears, Bounce, Boiler Room, Armageddon, or Gigli. And I've seen all the films you mentioned and he's an average actor at best. And I'm being generous when I say that. Add, he's gonna SUCK ASS as Batman. Want to see real acting? See Casey in The Assassination of Jessie James by the Coward Robert Ford.
Casey is a better actor based on "Jesse James" and "Gone Baby Gone." There's that scene in "Jesse James" where the one guy makes a comment about Robert Ford's dick and I wonder if that was scripted or just something the actor came up with since Casey was nude in a tube at the time.
Totally agree. Ben Affleck is so much more talented in directing the acting. As a director, he tells fluent stories. As an actor, he has problem bringing the roles alive.
They're both hot, but I agree Ben is an average actor at best. Casey is a better actor, but directed that god awful movie about Joaquin Phoenix, his brother-in-law!
I tend to agree that Casey comes off as the better actor, but the material he has been in has been better than some of the material Ben has been in. I still see Ben as a decent actor, but I tend to expect a more nuanced characterization from Casey.
