For the most part, both the critics and directors/producers he works with are pretty positive about his acting in general which is probably why he keeps getting roles.
But, I think there are some fans who are against him doing any acting at all because they simply want more music and that's it. So no matter how well he does in a movie, they aren't going to like it.

I understand that but, I also admire Justin for taking on the challenge of being an actor and continuing to pursue that dream even though some of his fan base isn't too happy about it.

You don't need to have talent in the entertainment industry to have a career.



You are saying Justinn doesn't have any acting talent. That's a pretty harsh statement. I don't think he is a great actor, but I wouldn't call him talentless.   He may not have excelled in dramas, but he has shown great comedic acting in 3 SNL appearances, which earned him an acting EMMY.   
I would give the boy some credit for that.  And the critics did not merely give lip service when they praised Justin's acting in Alpha Dog. They could have teared him down, but he suprised them with a credible performance.
      

I never said Justin doesn't have any talent. I think he's a very talented music artist and I think he does great on SNL when he hosts the show. But as far as doing movies goes, I don't think Justin is a very good actor. I saw some potential in Alpha Dog, but it seems like every movie after that he sucked. It seems like once his movies/roles got worse so did he.

I adore Justin, but he's a bad actor. I hope he gets better with more experience. When or if he does start to improve I think that will be great, I will gladly eat my words.
