Do you still respect Travolta (after watching this film?)

I agree w/ some Pulp Fiction free hall pass. One of the GOAT movies. Their s a minute fraction of actors that havent done absolute crap movies. i.e. Samuel Jackson snakes on a plane. Another lifetime pass for PF but thats another thread. This post no way promotes this dog pile of a movie or in anyway supports its existence I want to make that as clear as day. However Trivolta is a fine actor and this is not his best work.

I respect John Travolta for being graceful enough to play the villain and not the lead character as he had planned to when the project was first being discussed years earlier.
Now, as for him dropping the ball with some less than sterling film projects after his comeback film "Pulp Fiction", that warrants a book length analysis about the inner workings of the John Travolta business machine. His advisers have not been protecting him. But, despite that, he has maintained his "A" list stardom after his many falls from grace.
John Travolta is an amazing talent and I suspect we will see more comeback projects on the level of "Pulp Fiction". -

I don't respect him at all. I actually respected him because he was so cool in Staying Alive but now I have no respect for him.
Seriously, your "respect" is dependent on the roles on actor plays? I don't know Travolta personally, so I have no opinion on respecting him (although what I know of his dealings with women, he seems like a great guy: a widower who found love again; I never hear about him running around or anything). He seems like a nice fellow someone you could shoot the breeze with. Other than that, I've got no info on whether or not to respect him.
If you simply mean "respecting his acting choices", well, he's certainly had his ups and downs, but for the most part, I'm happy to see him on the screen.

I dont know him, and I dont follow his films but at least he stood up for something he believed in. I'm not talking about religion but he wanted to adapt the novel and sticked to doing this movie although all the controversy and limitations it had.

Definitely. He's one of my favorite actors, and I liked his performance in this film, too.

Every single movie star (and I really do mean every single one of them) has been in a terrible movie, or turned in a terrible performance at least once in their career. Every. Single. One.
The vast majority of them are into really stupid religions and spirituality as well. Not respecting an actor/actress because of one bad movie and their personal life choices is asinine
