cinematical.com— With starring roles in Terminator: Salvation, Avatar, and Clash of the Titans, Sam Worthington has come out of nowhere to become, potentially, Hollywood's next big thing -- the go-to action hero.

i don't understand man. why all the hate? he was fabulous in terminator salvation, and he was able to exude his character's hurtfelt emotions in Avatar to the audience.
You can't fault a guy for taking his chance and running with it. Avatar and Terminator were no brainers, if you're trying to break into the main stream and who would turn down a chance to be Perseus? I can't blame him and no amount of amazing acting could have saved CotT anyway; I mean the script made Liam Neeson sound like a hack.
I haven't seen Terminator, but I thought he played Sully, just how he needed to be played. He sucked in Clash of the Titans, but the script rivaled Attack of the Clones for lack of emotional reality or subtlety. No one could have saved that role. Even the good actors (Neeson and Fiennes) sounded terrible.
Kindergarten Cop ridiculous?A quarter of any respectable Arnold soundboard will consist of "I'm a cop, you idiot" at various pitches with a little kid also saying "boys have a penis and girls have a vagina." Seriously, that's some quality s**t right there.

Yes, he's an amazing actor. His Australian/American mish-mash accent isn't unbearable to listen to at all.

It did suck though, you can tell that they rewrote it at the last minute to give bale a bigger part after the dark knight hit big.
