    Most Eddie Murphy films are a good laugh.

    I enjoy Zoe Saldana's acting. She knows how to carry a scene, and her "eye acting" isn't half bad either.

    Andrea Benjamin aka Andre 3000. This dude is a surprisingly good actor(considering he started as a singer) and his portrayal of Jimi Hendrix was top-notch.

    If makeup could change the shape of people's eye sockets more than it can, that could be mistaken for the real deal. I wanna see that movie.

    Definitely a must watch for hendrix fans. Dude gets the voice and mannerisms really well, although the people who own hendrix's estate did not sign off on the movie so there is no actual "Hendrix" tunes . The music they use tho sounds very hendrexian tho lol.

    Some of the best stuff Hendrix did was covers, though Hey Joe, for instance.

    One of my favorite actors is Danny Glover. I like a lot of his stuff, and I like a lot of the causes he supports. (Worker's Unions for example.)

    I'm actually not very good at remembering actors and their names. Still, even I can mention Morgan Freeman at least.
