19 Times A Perfectly Good Movie Was Spoiled By A Really Bad Casting Choice – BuzzFeed

"IMO one of the worst casting decisions ever made in cinema history."

"This is immediately what came to mind for me. Drags the whole movie down, which is a terrible shame. Oldman is magnificent as Dracula." u/Beardopus

"If he hadn't been in the film, I'm almost certain there'd be no debate that this was the best and most faithful Dracula adaptation." u/YoureNotExactlyLone

"The film was amazing, but for some reason I just hated Dane DeHaan in it. Just didn't feel right." u/dagoto

"Cara [Delevingne] might have been fine with someone else, the main problem with that movie was the complete lack of chemistry with the leads in my opinion. Personally, I like Dane DeHaan, but he doesn't really play the charming charismatic rogue very well." u/-GeeButtersnaps-

"They look like brother/sister and they made them love interests. Such a BAD call." u/apupy

"Anytime I start watching the movie I always forget she's in it, and when she pops up on screen, I just get disappointed." u/Toneloaf

"Lex is cold and calculating. Jesse's character was anything but. If it had been the exact same movie but the villain was a mad scientist named Hans Gleeber or something, with Jesse giving the exact same performance, I think it would have been great." u/sharrrper

"IMO one of the worst casting decisions ever made in cinema history. It actually angers me thinking about it." u/Diablo516-

"Don't get me wrong, Don Cheadle is awesome and he totally deserves an awesome role in the Marvel films... but it's just hard for me to buy him in that military/Air Force role." u/SeaTie

"Cheadle is incredibly forgettable." u/Knineteen

"[Robert] Downey Jr. had a lot more chemistry with [Terrence] Howard than he does with Cheadle; you buy that Howard and Downey have been friends for a while." u/DelanoBluth

"I just hated [him] as Venom. Like the moment I saw him as Venom, I instantly wasn't as into the movie... I really believe it wouldve been much better if Tom Hardy was given Venom [in this film]." u/Mrfantastic2

"Eddie shouldve been someone Chris Evans' size; actually Chris Evans woulda made a great Brock." u/KatyPerrysBigFatCock

"[He] had absolutely none of Freddie's charisma, not even a little bit. Even a two minute interview with Freddie has more energy than he had in the entire movie." u/burningpet

"Belle? Don't you mean the Belle-Bot 3000?" u/Henry_Cavillain

"I was so mad about that. She cant act. They shouldve gone with a lesser known actress that can sing. Watson is just flat in my opinion. Shes beautiful but boring." u/LeahBean

"Should have been Emmy Rossum. Looks the part and has an incredible singing voice. But they just wanted that Harry Potter cred." u/requiem1394

"Alan Rickman, Morgan Freeman, and just about everyone else turned in outstanding performances, but Costner... Still a good movie though." u/okbacktowork

"Totally a wtf... especially given how demanding that musical is vocally." u/magvadis

"[There are] so many terrible movie musical castings that sacrifice singing ability for star power, its always a mistake." u/kirby31200

"Not sure why they chose him for the bad guy but I couldnt buy it." u/kittykatsu7

"[His] cameo really was distracting and odd in Django. I also don't understand why they decided to have the group be Australian odd choices all around." u/kirby31200

"He's so cringey to watch in Pulp Fiction and Django Unchained especially... more often than not I find when Tarantino puts himself in his own movies (Reservoir Dogs notwithstanding) it pulls me right out." u/MisterJeffries

"He just doesn't belong there. His acting is good, he nailed his speech in the second film, but no Potter World material." u/Gaathe

"Not necessarily miscast, because she definitely played exactly the character they wanted her to be, but shes just too recognizable as Beyonc." u/PleasecanIcomeBack

"She can't act. Every scene she was in is flat as a pancake." u/steerbell

"They would've been a lot better off had Rachel Weisz's character been the Wicked Witch." deleted user

"I love Mila Kunis, but that role felt so wrong for her." u/GwenGunn

"He only did ... what a straight [man] thinks a gay man is, and basically just ticked every gay stereotype off. A better actor would have taken that role and made it more than just a basic stereotype (like Brooks Ashmanskas did in the original stage production)." u/aw-un

"[It] could be a beautiful movie, if it wasn't for Nick Cage." u/Wobbly-Dongle
