I don't think it's Clooney as an actor. The guy is basically an idiot who
is a good and very popular actor. The overpromoted movie "Leatherheads"
may
have been his fault, but it was the lack of talent behind the camera, not
in
front of it, that made it such a bomb.
He needs to stop trying to think and get an agent who puts him into good
movies. I read "The Good German" after I saw the movie, and I was
flabbergasted at what a fantastic spy/mystery novel it was. Really, close
to John Le Carre quality. The movie was an absolute disaster. It
reminded
me of "Bonfire of the Vanities".
He can act and can open a good movie, I think. Nobody can open the crap
he's been taking (or in this case, making).
