Every great actor has done shit, no actor's filmography is flawless,
DeNiro did "Rocky and Bullwinkle"
Al Pacino did "Dick Tracy" if even these actors can't avoid doing bad films every now and then, nobody can.
Depp, is a good actor, when he's in a good film like say, "Donnie Brasco" his acting shines, when he's in a medicore film, he sure knows how to polish a turd. (The Ninth Gate comes to mind)
Edward Norton, has done good films, has done no so good films, I can take him or leave him.
Drew Barrymore- past her prime in both her beauty and her acting, was never a great actress, but at one point at least she was quite a cutie, that goes a long way for a short time.
Chole Sevigny-She's an indie darling, but I'll take Christina Ricci over her anyday.
Scarlett Johansson- A lot of pepole bring up "Ghost World" but it was obviously Thora Birch's movie, and even Steve Bushemi, not that Scarlett's role was any less fun to watch. In fact now that I think about it she tends to be overshadowed in much of her good work, "LIT" did more for Bill Murray and Sophia Coppla then it will ever do for Scarlett.
