    I can kind of see it. I mean, she's young and she's got potential. If she wants to, she can expand her acting range and make it so that people will actually remember her for more than just a pretty face in the Transformer films. For example, I thought she was great in Jennifer's Body.

    My opinion is that Megan Fox is awesome.

    Rourke is no slouch either, so, you know, he's worth listening to.

    Well a summer pop corn action movie and a horror film aren't really the best types of films to show off a person's acting skills. It's always possible that she is skilled and just hasn't had the chance to show off what she can really do yet.

    I mean imagine if you had only seen Natalie Portman in Star Wars then you might not think she was a good actor. But when you see her in other films you have to go oh wow this woman can really act.

    Perhaps this film Passion Play will give us a chance to really see what she can do.

    I want to know what Chuck Norris think of her. I'm almost sure he wants to roundhouse kick her in the face.

    Eeh, who knows? Maybe somewhere deep in there is a really good actress that's not had a chance to shine yet and this next movie could be her chance.

    Either that or Rourke is mistaking T&A for acting (same way Michael Bay mistakes explosions and shakycam for plot and characterisation).

    On the other hand, Mickey Rourke has a reputation for burning bridges and having awkward relationships with young and attractive female co-stars.

    I will question her acting ability but not her professionalism. I've seen her in interviews that would piss me off but she was a pro and just played along with it.

    I'm sure with a little more coaching she can become a serious actor. Well a lotta more coaching lol.

    Thanx

    I never had a problem with her acting, actually the acting is among the last things I would criticise the TF movies for.

    Probably because it borrows more than a couple of cues from the harem anime textbook. Which technically borrows from the cheesecake genre of western movies / TV in the first place anyway.

    Let's see if "Passion Play" really bring out her "potential".

    I honestly don't think she's that bad, although all I've seen her in is the TF movies and Jennifer's Body. But she's the last cast member I'd accuse of bad acting in the TF movies.

    I don't see all the hate for her either, but I cannot agree with this at all. Other than Isabel Lucas (whose stiff performance may have been part of the role), and the guy who played Leo, noone's performance was worse than hers.

    The part where she walks in on Sam.... ugh. The part where Sam dies TRIPLE UGH. You can say there weren't well written, but her performance of the that "don't die I need you" was HORRID. I wasn't even remotely convinced.

    Number 2, What really hot other young actresses are there? I think she may be the best by default... can't think of anyone else on the comeup right now.
