Going by most of last week's responses,
Beyonce ranges from kinda doesn't have it to definitely doesn't have it, with a few of you extolling her virtues. (Honestly, I didn't focus on her ass because I've never quite understood how having a great ass could make an otherwise unattractive woman more appealing. Bewbs, however...) Here's another selection this week who is hard for me, mainly based on my feelings towards her acting capabilities. What do you think of....
Mary Elizabeth Winstead

The first thing that I remember seeing Winstead in was SKY HIGH, a movie that I ended up being surprised that I liked. But being that it was a cheesy flick and most of the good moments were taken up by every character other than M.E.'s bad girl, I didn't make much of her at the time and didn't figure she had much of a career ahead of her as a hot brunette considering that she was barely a smoldering ember at the time.

I then went on to watch her in FINAL DESTINATION 3 (quite possibly the worst "Part 3" of anything other than F&TF:TOKYO DRIFT) and the BLACK CHRISTMAS remake which was one step below being abysmal. Things were not looking good for Winstead, in my humble opinion, as she dove into a pool of nondescript chicks who can scream on cue for the camera.

However, despite myself, I really rather liked her dim-bulb act in Tarantino's half of GRINDHOUSE (which I watched 4 times in the theater, so you can't blame its financial failure on my part). This was, of course, then overshadowed by her portrayal of Bruce Willis' daughter in the last DIE HARD sequel. Hell, even Olyphant, as horribly miscast as he was in that, outshined her. So I'm left with just the looks, if I cast aside the roles she's had. Is she pretty? Well, sure. But any more pretty than just another average brunette who can't really act worth a damn? Nope.
And you think M.E.W. is....?
I'm surprised James Thoo hasn't lept to her defense in all this, his wanting her hand in marriage in all.
EDIT: Seems I jumped too quick when I said James hadn't come yet, shame on my part for underestimating...

HOT
She is smokin' hot. She was awesome in that cheerleader outfit in Death Proof and she was hot in Die Hard 4. She's a great actress, too.

So, in short, I'm continually impressed by her.

Excellent actress and very hot
I thought she easily gave the best performance in Sky High, Bobby, and Die Hard 4. She was a lot better than all the other actors in those movies.
Black Christmas was just plain awful, so it would have been impossible to give a good performance with that material, even so, I thought she was okay, the best in the cast.

I thought Death Proof was equally as bad as Black Christmas, just plain garbage. Despite this, that is the movie where I first noticed Winstead's great acting ability, because she took a total nothing character and managed to elevate that. I literally hated every single performance in that movie and she was the only one who impressed me.
As for Final Destination 3, it's a silly premise and I didn't see the other ones, but I thought Winstead was good as the main character and made that movie far more watchable than it should have been.
My favorite movie with Winstead in it is definitely Factory Girl. Not only does it have an excellent Winstead cameo but it stars Cherry's favorite actress, Sienna Miller.
Yup!
Average...
