Or any oscar winner? Why not call it the Nicholas Cage effect? Every actor, oscar winner or not, has been in a bad film.

As a non-white female Halle Berry only gets a 10th of what white males (and females) get offered. If she chose bad projects it's likely because nothing better was sent her way (until Cloud Atlas).

Yeah she made a lot of bad movies after her Oscar win but Wanted and Changeling weren't part of them. Wanted was a big summer blockbuster and she was badass in it and she received another Oscar nomination for Changeling..

House of Cards is a refresher and hopefully he'll get sent some better scripts this go 'round.

The Changeling and Wanted….Critics have to remember not all films are of Oscar caliber but still entertaining. Some of these films had interesting twists that no one could predict. I believe once many actors/actresses have achieved the golden goose that is the Oscars they take a moment and have fun with their craft after that. The pressure is off they have proven their ability now it's all about fun and money.

First, she followed her win with "Public enemies". Then she did "Nine" which wasn't critically acclaimed but it was a high-profile movie with an extraordinary cast & director. Then she was in "Inception", "Contagion", "Midnight in Paris", "Little white lies", "The Dark Knight Rises" & "Rust & Bone. She should have been nominated in a supporting role for "Nine", "Inception" & "Midnight in Paris" & she was CLEARLY robbed for "Rust & Bone".
She still have "Lowlife" & "Blood Ties" to come and maybe even "The diary of a chambermaid" which are all three extremely high profile roles.

ADRIEN BRODY should be here- hell it should be called the BRODY EFFECT. Also HILARY SWANK is an embarrassment. What about MARCIA GAY HAYDEN? She was in a LIFETIME movie recently for Christs sake!

There you lost me. One oft my favorite films. Well written, greatly performed… no wonder you critics do not get it.

What the heck are you thinking?!

Halle Berry has been in some atrocious movies. I think the only movie she did that was any good besides X-2 was X-3 and Things We Lost in the Fire.

Adrien Brody had made some decent movies after the pianist. Dummy, The Jacket, King Kong, are all very entertaining. Its his recent work thats not doing so well.

Fred Claus is only one film, and after that, came The Brothers Bloom, The Lovely Bones, The Deep Blue Sea, The Bourne Legacy and Oz: The Great and Powerful. Pretty diverse set of films and performances for any Oscar winning actress to have.

Ever heard of "regression to the mean"? Out of all Oscar winners, and all of their respective follow-ups, you cherry pick a few over the past 50 years and deem them, in hindsight, poor career choices?
