    Just kidding. For me, Robert DeNiro.

    To many good ones to declare one the best. I look to people like Carlton Heston, Kirk Douglas, Liz Taylor, Jimmy Stewart, Steve McQueen, Sean Connery... more moder dudes would be Mel Gibson, Robert Danero, Danzel etc tc etc ..... just too many good ones to say this guy or gal was best.

    Are we talking just star? Or best actor?

    Because the biggest star is probably someone like Will Smith or Tom Cruise.

    Tom Hanks is a good one. Also really like Brad Pitt.

    Anthony Hopkins because I just watched The Silence of the Lambs.

    I agree with Tom Hanks.

    Denzel is good too, Remember the Titans, Book of Eli... loved both of them especially.

    Would also throw in Al Pacino and Jack Nickelson. Both past prime but both have stood the test of time and to this day still great actors!
