10 Actors Who Hated Their Own Movies
4. Charlize Theron Said Reindeer Games Was A Bad Movie
Like many of the names on this list, Academy Award-winner Charlize Theron has starred in some properly awesome pictures over the years, putting in some seriously impressive shifts in the likes of Mad Max: Fury Road, Monster, and Bombshell.
One movie that didn't really earn much praise from both critics or the star herself, though, was 2000 action thriller Reindeer Games.
Playing Ashley Mercer in the John Frankenheimer dud, Theron would ultimately tell Esquire back in 2007 that, although she fully accepted that they'd made a "bad, bad movie," she still got to work with the director of The Manchurian Candidate. In her mind, it didn't matter that Reindeer Games sucked, all she cared about was getting to share a set with a person who'd directed "the movie of all movies".
So, while Theron may hate what ultimately ended up on screen, it's safe to say she still cherishes the memories of working alongside one of the great filmmakers of the 20th century.
