Harrison Ford is a solid actor. Maybe not the most masterful at characterizations, but what he does have is soul and likeabilty.Costner is a lifeless, monotonic, incompetent bore.
Follow Ups:
I enjoyed his "Polka with Porquepines" because the cinematography was so beautiful, and the supporting actors so gifted, and understand that he fought hard to get it made the way he wanted it done.Don't understand the facination with "Field of Demons" though.
The wife loves it, and I can't stand the thought of it.
I suppose I liked "Dancing with Dogs" because he gets the crap beat out of him. That was cool. Too bad he didn't die, slowly and painfully, as his audience does.
"Tin Cup" seems to be about a perfect matching of acting requirements and Costner's abilities as an actor. I must admit, I kind of enjoyed that film. Kind of a souffle; nothing memorable.These days, I don't think he's as "bankable" as Ford.
akk, and I have no interest in golf at all, but was entertained by the story...perhaps by comparison, it was the cameo by Don Johnson that made Costner seem palitable
