10 Actors Who Just Gave Their Worst Performance EVER
8. Zachary Levi & Gina Rodriguez - Spy Kids: Armageddon
Granted, nobody's signing up to appear in a Spy Kids reboot with the intent of putting on an acting clinic, but even so, this marked a new low for not only director Robert Rodriguez but also his two talented lead actors, Zachary Levi and Gina Rodriguez.
"Phoned-in" isn't even the phrase to adequately describe the mailed-in-from-space performances from the duo, who are so thoroughly going through the motions here that one could quite fairly accuse their work of being AI-assisted (though, for legal reasons, we'll clarify it apparently isn't).
On paper Levi and Rodriguez might seem well-cast as a duo of suave, charming, impossibly good-looking secret agents, yet their surprising lack of chemistry only further sabotages a pair of performances that scream loudly, "I needed a paycheck."
And while we shouldn't shame a hungry actor for taking a bad gig, in the very least they could've shown some enthusiasm, right? They're ultimately far from the movie's biggest problem, but they don't help at all.
