I think she was great on TV, but not exactly "compelling" on the big screen. She does seem to be getting better with each go at it on movies, though.

When I first watched Alias I had never seen Jennifer act but of course after you watch Alias you will never stop watching Jennifer act. She portrayed Sydney so brilliantly that the character will never be forgotten,it was legendary. I love her movies especially 13 Going On 30,it reminds me so much of my life and the thoughts I have and yes I was 13 in 1987 and I was 30 in 2004 when the movie came out.The part in the movie where she presents the way she wants the magazine to go,where she says we won't know something good if it hits us in the face,that is so true. Well Jennifer is something good she is a beautiful and talented actress that I look forward to watching for years to come.
And also the best actress you can find on TV. Garner portrayed Sydney Bristow perfectly on Alias.
The main challenge of portraying Sydney was that, she was able to go through a range of emotions within only a few seconds. From being a kick ass action heroine, she could transform into a vulnerable, every day girl, who has more trouble in life in only one minute than we have in our entire lifetime.
Mrs. Garner 's not only a terrific actress,she's also a great person. She LIKES her job, and she does it by heart, and she's not big headed about it. You can ask for her signature anytime, you can bet she'll give you one. She's also NEVER EVER had a scandal. In every single interview, she's nice and cool,and very enthusiastic.
But not only she has all off the skills, and the good personality. She looks... extremely sexy. She's one of the hottest females ever. She's not only attractive, but she's very fit too.
Kudos for Jen. She could do her job properly even while being pregnant with her daughter, Violet. But in the top of all this, she also directed one episode of Alias. "In Dreams". It was, one of the best episodes of Alias. And the fact that she directed it is even better. Her direction was flawless. Her movie career is going nicely too. She started with Alias, which got her into the fame(but she never lost her touch). Elektra, Daredevil, The Kingdom... all great performances by her.
Overall, if I had to spend my lifetime by looking at only one actress' performances, I'd definitely choose Jennifer Garner.
I have never seen someone explode into greatness like Jennifer was able to do. She got her start on Alias for her first big television show, ran that out for 5 years doing an amazing job along the way AND managed to get herself into the news with Ben Affleck AND into a half a dozen movies. Jennifer Gardner is everything that you could ever want in a television star. Shes got the body and the ability to translate things for the viewers when we need things to be dummied down for us. I didnt think I would ever watch an Action-Adventure / Drama show that had a female lead, but Jennifer Gardner has showed me exactly why I should give every show a chance. Her performance on Alias will go down as likely one of the greatest no-name > superstar performances in movie AND televsion history.
Jennifer Garner is amazing and very talented. She's beautiful, funny, and very good at what she does. I loved her in 13 Going On 30. She was so funny as Jenna Rink. It made me laugh to see a 30-Year-Old woman acting like a teenager. She really brought a smile to my face.
I think when you're feeling down, watch a movie with Jennifer Garner in it, and you'll feel so much better. She'll make you laugh and smile. I absolutely love her work, and I hope she continues to make great movies.
Jennifer, Sweetie, keep up the good work. You're very talented.
In my opinion, Jennifer is one of the most talented actresses. There is something that makes her special and outstanding from others. Maybe it's her smile or something inside her. The character of Sidney Bristow, which she created in Alias, is really great. She was able to show us the complex personality of Sidney, all her strong and weak points. She made us think that she really is Sidney.
Another roles of Jennifer Garner were also very good. I like them all. I think that an appearance of Jennifer guarantees us that the show is truly worth our time. Jennifer has become one of my favorite actresses since I saw the first episode of Alias and she will be on my list forever!
