Every Cuba Gooding Jr. movie since 2006.

Has anyone else noticed the amount of tosh Cuba's been doing over the last few years? I've watched a couple of these movies on Netflix recently (The Hit List and The Devil's Tomb, which isn't featured in the pic), and they really are just naff pieces of work. I know they're probably just pay cheques, but still, he's better than this. Even if he's never truly broken into so-called "stardom", the guy's still a big name and a strong screen presence. It's a shame that he's had to sink to such murky depths.

I'm pretty sure they just pasted his head onto Cruise's body from Collateral for The Hit List poster.

Never thought much of him as an actor to be honest.I really hated his character in Jerry Maguire and would have cheered if he had died a slow painful death just like everyone else in that film.

There's one movie he was in that's not on that list called Ticking Clock to my shame I've seen. Sad to see him in such nonsense to be honest.
