Chances are you have some opinion about the body of work of Ben Affleck.
He has been inescapable. The actor has close to 50 credits to his name over a career that has quite a few highs and as many lows.
And in a career not lacking for sharp criticism (whether over his questionable ascent to leading-man roles or his work opposite onetime fiancée Jennifer Lopez), his latest dive into superhero-dom, "Batman v Superman," must be giving him flashbacks of earlier critical pans.
Sad Ben Affleck shouldn't worry, though. He still hasn't topped his worst. Here are Ben Affleck's worst — and to be fair, best — performances in his career:
In what can be explained only as a favor to the Weinsteins for making "Good Will Hunting" (this was released by the company's genre arm, Dimension), Affleck stars in this campy thriller/love story in which he plays an ex-con who is forced into robbing a casino.
When a movie with "Christmas" in the title comes out in October, you know something is wrong. In fact, this comedy starring Affleck as a millionaire who spends Christmas in the house he grew up in (along with the family that currently lives there) was supposed to come out around Christmas 2003, but it got pushed back.
We're guessing test screenings weren't favorable, because there's a reason you don't see Affleck in comedies like these anymore: He's just not good at them.
It's understandable why Affleck was drawn to the role of a crooked entrepreneur who runs an offshore betting site: He's a big fan of poker. But why Justin Timberlake or anyone else followed along is anyone's guess. Perhaps because the movie was written by the same guys who did "Rounders," but the end result this time is a messy story with laughable dramatic moments.
