Fighting for the top spot are Will Smith and Johnny Depp. So lets start with Will Smith. When I see "Will Smith" in the cast list, I immediately know its going to be a good movie. So far, I have no seen a bad movie with Will Smith in it, he never ceases to bring it, no matter what kind of movie it is. Some Will Smith movies to check out are: I am Legend, The Pursuit of Happyness, I Robot, The Legend of Bagger Vance, and Hitch.
Johnny Depp is probably one of the most talented and diverse actors of our time. He's been in some not-so-great movies but he has also been in a wide variety of good movies, probably most well known for his recent part in Pirates of the Caribbean as Captain Jack Sparrow. Some other movies of his to check out include: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Finding Neverland, Chocolat, and Sleepy Hollow.
James McAvoy is relatively new to the popular movie scene but so far he has failed to disappoint. This Scotsman has mastered the British and American accents and is making a name for himself, starring with big names like Kiera Knightly, Anne Hathaway, and Angelina Jolie. Some good McAvoy flicks to see are: Wanted, Atonement, Becoming Jane, Penelope, and The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The With and The Wardrobe.
Jim Sturgess is also relatively new on the scene but so far has proven to have potential. I've only seen two movies with him in it. The Other Boleyn Girl and 21. 21 was a great movie, but The Other Boleyn Girl was a dud. However he did his best with what he was given and was probably the best thing (next to the scenery) from that movie. I've also hear that Across The Universe is good but its based on Beatles songs which means I probably won't get to see it with my dad around ;] and its in the sixties or something so there's lots of drugs going on and its weird. I'm not sure, just reading the IMDB comments. But I have heard some of the sound track and Jim sings at least some of the songs himself and they sound really good.
Matt Damon is a great actor, both as the intense thriller star or the the dorky innocent guy. I haven't seen a lot of stuff with him in it either but I've enjoyed the Bourne serious including the Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy and the Bourne Ultimatum. According to IMDB, in 2010 there is going to be an Untitled Jason Bourne Project so hopefully that won't ruin the trilogy. It could either be very good, or ruin the whole thing, so I guess we'll see. He's also been in The Brother's Grimm, Oceans 11-13, The Legend of Bagger Vance, and even narrated for Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, go figure!
So there they are, :] my top five actors. Actresses are a lot more difficult but i'm sure I can come up with something, lol. Now I have to go work on those darned reviews.

I really like Matt Damon, and I love the Bourne Identity series. I am dreading what they do with another one though; I hope they don't ruin it.
Yeah i hope so too :]
I don't think Across the Universe was worth it. The preview was wonderful; their downfall was expanding it into a movie. They should stick to making great previews.
