I was never a fan of Ben Affleck till I watched Dogma and Hollywoodland slowly warmed upto him.
Hollywoodland bored the pants off me.

I thought it was interesting as it showed how George Reeves may have died due either suicide or murder

I don't think he ruined it. But it is one of those films I mentioned that he just happens to be in rather than he brought anything in particular to the table. Josh Hartnett has more charisma in his little toe.

When you look at Hackman's films you'll notice timeless classics, films that you'll have watched over and over again.

I don't think you'll ever say that about Kidman and Affleck.

I think there maybe one or two between them. For instance I think Dead Calm and Far & Away are classics. Good Will Hunting as well.
