Look at Sean Connery... In my opinion, his acting skills are on par with Keanu's but he's still a big deal because he has some little something that many other actors don't have.

We're going to lock horns here methinks lol. Nah, Pitt can't act. Period. I've probably seen him doing well in about two flicks.

Connery on the other hand relies on presence and charisma, which he most certainly has. Pitt doesn't have that. He's good looking but he doesn't have what Connery possesses. Sure I'd say Connery could play Bond now and we'd accept it!
