That being said, I still can't fully judge the movie until it actually comes out and I can go and see it. Only then, will we know how it fared and whether or not Johnny Knoxville can actually play a serious character. The same is true for Megan Fox as April O'Neil. She hasn't been given a fair chance either. I feel that the true testament of an actor as to their abilities is whether or not they can be believable in an array of characters: serious, comical, etc.

I completely agree. Take Tim Curry for example. He's pretty damn good at playing an assortment of different characters! If I didn't know any better, I'd think his roles were performed by completely different actors.

You can be surprised by how skilled actors can be.
