I think sometimes the chemistry between the leading actors and actresses...and even the entire cast can make or break a movie for you.

I'd love to know....

• Which actors/actresses do you think have have a good chemistry together?

• Which actors/actresses' chemistry doesn’t work for you and in which movie?

Good Casting Chemistry for me........

Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers~
(The Gay Divorcee (1934), Top Hat (1935), [i]Swing Time (1936), [i]Follow the Fleet (1936), Shall We Dance (1937) )
They have great chemistry together in all of their movies along with their entire cast(s). To me it’s one of the elements that helps keep their movies classic. The entire cast always had great timing. And Fred has danced with other women in other movies...but none of them click as well as when he danced and traded barbs with Ginger.

Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant~
(The Philadelphia Story (1940), Bringing Up Baby (1938) and Holiday (1938)
I love Katharine and Cary together. Eventhough Holiday wasn’t as good as their other two movies Kate and Cary made it work and enjoyable to watch.

Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks~
( Sleepless in Seattle (1993), You've Got Mail (1998) )
For me, Meg and Tom are just adorable together. Eventhough they didn’t have alot of screen time together in Sleepless...everything and everyone still clicked for me. I loved the casts’ for both films.

I loved the cast in The Parent Trap (1998)
Lindsay Lohan (Hallie Parker/Annie James), Dennis Quaid (Nicholas Parker), Natasha Richardson (Elizabeth James), Elaine Hendrix (Meredith Blake), Lisa Ann Walter (Chessy), Simon Kunz (Martin, the James' Butler). I know..it’s just a family movie...but everyone meshed together so well. I love this movie...because of the cast.

Also....I’d like to see these actors and actresses together again...

Robert Redford and Brad Pit...I loved them in Spy Game. I think they make a good team again.

Robin Williams and Christine Baranski....I think they had great chemistry in The Bird Cage. I think they’d be a hoot together in another film.

Steve Martin and Jean Smart.....she was so under used in Bringning down the House. What little time they did have together I think they had alot chemistry. I’d love to see them together in another movie.

Dennis Quaid and Natasha Richardson...they were just so darn cute together in Parent Trap.

Casting Chemistry that didn't work for me........

View From the Top (2003)
Gwyneth Paltrow (Donna), Christina Applegate (Christine), Mark Ruffalo (Ted). To me Gwyneth and Mark were just flat. She needs someone more dynamic playing a romance with her...and...I dunno about Christina...she was fine in her role, but they just didn’t mesh for me.
