10 Incredibly Talented Actors Who Should Really Call It A Day

6. John Travolta

John Travolta is probably one of the most inconsistent actors out there today. His career has been on polar opposites: on one side, you have the classics Saturday Night Fever, Grease, Pulp Fiction. On the other, you have Two of a Kind, Phenomenon, and, one of the worst big-budget sci-fis ever, Battlefield Earth. I still can€™t believe that I sat through this entire movie at one point. Literally anything else would have been a better way to spend my time. Like getting a root canal.

So which stage of the Travolta spectrum are we in now? The only decent role he has done lately was back in 2007 for Hairspray, where he somehow believably pulls off playing a woman. But, that same year, he was also in Wild Hogs. And then, he was in Old Dogs. You're not that old, John. You don't have to play old guys to be good. Is this really the same person who played Vincent Vega in Pulp Fiction?

I€™m still waiting for John to get another good role. But, at this point, that€™s like waiting for Lindsay Lohan to get sober. It€™s just not going to happen.
