A Scanner Darkly [movie]

Forbidden Zone, movie (1982)

Big Momma’s House 2

The Amazing Spider Man 2 movie

Spongebob Squarepants

Prince is one of the most multi-talented performers in the world. Acting, however, is not one of his strongest points. However, as Hollywood history proves, an actor doesn’t particularly have to be all that talented, if audiences like him.
