Every Ben Affleck Movie Ranked From Worst To Best

42. Man About Town (2006)

Ben Affleck Gone Girl Batman v Superman Pearl Harbor
Lionsgate

This direct-to-video dramedy stars Affleck as a top Hollywood talent agent whose life falls apart when he learns that his wife (Rebecca Romijn) is cheating on him with his biggest client and a journalist threatens to ruin his career (Bai Ling).

Despite releasing in 2006, you could be forgiven for assuming that Man About Town was released a good five years earlier, and though Affleck gives a decent enough performance in the role of the high-powered agent, the comedy is extremely broad to the point of irritation.

Considering the film came out just as Affleck was beginning to piece his career back together after that brutal early-2000s slump, it couldn't feel much more out of place.
