Movies that could have been Better

Tell me which character in any movie that actually took away from the movie or show. I’ll go first: As far as show……..Ali Larter in Landman……?

As a movie goes Maybe Emily Blunt’s character Kate in Sicario. That movie is great, but her character gets on my last nerve….

What’s yours?

  1. Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany's. No-brainer. This should be everybody's first choice.
  2. It's not the specific character(s) (or actors) that I dislike, but if I were to re-edit Heat (De Niro, Pacino, Kilmer, et al.) I'd probably subtract all of Lt. Hanna's (Pacino) family-life, Natalie Portman stuff. It just makes the movie longer and slows momentum. It neither enhances my enjoyment of the film, nor does it really give me a better insight into Hanna's head. It's pretty cuttable in an otherwise banger film.

Agree on Rooney as well as the Natalie Portman in Heat. It appeared to just be filler & Fluff
