    This is a poll about good actors/actresses that made the mistake of playing bad characters or being in bad movies. Jack Nicholson - The Pledge. This movie sucked horribly. No one will ever be able to change my mind. Jack nicholson is really a great actor, but he made a mistake with this one...

    So what'd y'all think of this movie? I liked it for the most part. The concept was cool and I liked the filming of it and how they thought of everyting a reality show has. I just didn't really like the story about Dawn and Jeff's relationship. The coolest part to me was at the end when Jeff...
