Gemma Arterton

Rating: Null/10 (19 August 2010)

.... Ruined it
I'm sick to the back of my teeth of cr@p English actresses... it started not so recently with the massively overrated Keira Knightley from Pirates of the Caribbean, it went on and on, to loads of other useless semi-talented, mediocre, skinny English speaking actresses... and Gemma Arterton is no exception. Basically she is out of her league... not from lack of trying though... I can't complain about that... she does try...
... but you gotta wonder who picked her. The fault lies with them. I'm sure she's a nice polite girl who is lovely.. and I'm sure everyone has nice thing to say about her but that does not make her great. The fact is... is she's watchable... but not great.. such a shame... basically she's boring (I don't care what she looks like)... Imagine the the film with an 'unknown' and you'll see what i mean. There are better more interesting actresses out there...
I have to say the rest of the cast worked well.. however, I have a feeling no matter how hard Gemma Arterton will ever try in her career as an actress she will always be either okay or watchable.. never great.. or brilliant.
My advice is avoid her in all future films... unfair? I don't think so.
Do you?
