Alec Baldwin: 5 Awesome Performances And 5 That Sucked

1. Lawrence "Larry" Quinn - The Cat In The Hat

Hollywood's second crack at turning one of Dr. Seuss' beloved books into movie fodder wasn't any better than The Grinch - it was far, far worse. At the centre of this skewed maelstrom is of course Micheal Myers's creepy cat - a more randy that rambunctious creation that comes across just plain wrong. Playing neighbour to this creature is an Alec Baldwin like we've never seen him before. Slobbish, vulgar and boasting a seemingly rock solid prosthetic stomach, he's in full on bad guy mode here to disastrous effect. Easily his worst performance and, shameful to say it, but he gets out-acted by his own gut. Not the cat's pajamas, we're afraid. Got any other Baldwin baddies or goodies that you want to bring to the table? Take a wander down to the comments thread and cast your thoughts...
