Yeah, he's got talent, but it's the kind that can veer into irritatingly over-the-top if not handled well. He was stupid as heck in the Rundown, but it worked there. But after that, I keep having nightmare visions of that commercial for "Dukes of Hazzard", where he met an Australian girl and yells "Put another shrimp on the barbie!" at her. Assuming I'd lost my mind and had wanted to see that movie, that one scene alone would have been enough to dissuade me. Well, that, and the one with h big-teeth Jessica Simpson kicking the dude over in a bar, then standing with her foot on him and saying something witty in that horrible Southern accent she faked!
