Overrated actress. If you can catch an actor acting in a role, they have failed, and it's easy to catch Blanchett acting in every role. Irrespective of how many Oscars she has won (modern Oscars are a joke anyway) she is not as talented as many other actresses out there

@markorakocija5473

@@commanderkeen3787 I agree with you in the sense that she is obviously a theatre actor rather than a screen actor. Sometimes that doesn't translate well to the screen. Her approach to acting didn't make a good fit with a director like Linklater, but it fit perfectly with someone like Woody Allen (or Todd Field of you will). IMO, she is easily the best and most interesting actor of her generation.
