Leto has done some great roles. See Bladerunner. His problem is his manager that signs him up for every turd script Hollywood can generate. He's the new Nicolas Cage paying off his IRS bills. Why does Greta Lee have a job in acting? Because she's an Asian female?
Blaming an actor for a bad movie is like blaming one plumber when a building collapses. The problem is movies are now so expensive to make that they are made by a committee of risk averse accountants. If Quentin Tarantino tried starting today, he would never get to touch a film. The recent trend I do not understand is high audience scores for really terrible movies like F1. They recycled the script from Stallone's Driven, even the main character. Both were terrible movies misrepresenting the sport. Fantastic 4? Proof that COVID-19 was a brain infection if audiences thought that crime fighting with a newborn was a plot line.
Leto was also a producer and put funding into the movie so he had a much larger hand in the movie than just an actor.
The script was written by bad AI. Not even a hint of a sensical plot.
actually, they recycled Days of Thunder.
