7. Matthew Broderick
Matthew Broderick has been a little more successful than others on this list, but not by much. Making a name for himself in eighties cult classics Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, and WarGames, Broderick had a more difficult period in the nineties. His notable films of this decade are famous for all the wrong reasons: The Cable Guy (which he starred in with Jim Carrey) is a famous misstep for all involved, and the less said about Godzilla the better. Recently Broderick appeared in the comedy Tower Heist and has gained a respectable reputation on Broadway.
