Vote up the actors that you also think improve any movie they're in.

Actors dedicate their entire lives to the art of storytelling. When they make it big, their worlds reach a level of glamor most of us could only dream of, but the fame and fortune is merely the icing on the cake. Inside most actors is a kid with an unexplainable love for performance. These talented individuals get a sense of fulfillment from bring characters to life on stage, screen, and beyond. They have to be both vulnerable and confident, expressive but believable, grandiose yet approachable. It's not an easy job, although the best actors definitely make it seem that way. We asked Watchworthy and Total Nerd readers which actors make movies better by just being in them, and they were not shy about heaping on praise for these Hollywood stars. Which of these actors could also make you love a movie just with their presence?
