Tom Cruise has been in a bunch of films I didn't like. But they were probably good, in that they did exactly what they were supposed to do, really well.
Zoe Saldana.
The only answer is Jason statham If you like Jason statham you’ll probably like all his films . I don’t think I’ve ever been disappointed with one of his films as you know what your going to get . except revolver that was awful .
For people saying DiCaprio yes hes become an outstanding actor but for me Titanic and man in the iron mas were truly awful. As already said its best to look at whos done the least worst movies.
I was going to put forward Wesley Snipes but i think he might have been in one of the expendibles films.
I'll repeat, the answer is Tom cruise
He hasn't been in an absolute stinker.
You might not like Days of Thunder, Cocktail, Last Samurai, Eyes Wide Shut etc, but they weren't bad films in the way the likes of Nic Cage has done some absolute stinkers. You may not like Cruise as a person however his output is consistently watchable. Plus he has some absolute belters in there like Edge of Tomorrow
however his output is consistently watchable
Sorry, so many of his films (due to his performances) give me rage.
Main exception is Collateral.
Talking of 'Edge of Tomorrow', how about Emily Blunt? Haven't seen her in too many stinkers - good performances in Looper, Sicario, Adjustment Bureau, A Quiet Place..

You not liking him doesn't mean he isn't good.
I detest reggae music, but I'd acknowledge that Bob Marley is good in terms of what he did musically based on popularity alone.
TL;DR ..... Mark Strong
Clint Eastwood.
R2-D2.
I’ll repeat, the answer is Tom cruise

Days of Thunder sucked.
R2-D2
Nah, he was in Phantom Menace, Rise of Skywalker and then there’s that whole flying thing in the one who’s title I always forget.
Emily Blunt is a good shout. Rachel Weisz too.
@johndoh, I was thinking Brad Pitt too, agreed on Burn After Reading it is superb. Inglourious Basterds is brilliant too.
He has done his fair share of carp films too though Mr & Mrs Smith being an obvious choice!
Ok, here's an easy baromoter
IMDB ratings
Tom Cruise has 50 films he's been in with ratings available. 48 of them have ratings of more than 5/10 and of the 2 below that the lowest is 4.9.
The likes of Pacino and De Niro have some movies with ratings of 2/10
Harrison Ford looks to be very dependable
Gary Oldman has come right guff on his ledger
IMDB ratings mean nothing. I recently watched the most appalling Vince Vaughn film. Laughably bad and there's loads of 10/10 ratings on there.
