ITT: Movies that could've been good if the acting wasn't godawful.
Preferably with a video example.
I'd go for the movie Elephant. Tackles a taboo subject; school shootings of the Columbine variety. However, the acting is trash.

Non-professional actors is apart of Van Sant's style dude.
this was very good, novice actors and all
I was pretty much the only person in my class that hated Elephant.
OP, watch Zero Day instead. The acting is scarily good.

Looked good to me, feels real.
Zero Hour was much better. Elephant just tried capitalize on the Columbine massacre for profit without understanding the subject matter at all.
there's never been a great school shooter movie
edgelords will try to convince you otherwise
People are way too calm about it. I know he's going for the kind of realistic underreaction that people have to shocking situations like this, but he is overplaying it, ironically enough.
