He shot to fame first on the small screen

His films were not so well received

Ashton Kutcher tasted some initial success with his comedy in the movies such as 2000’s ‘Dude, Where’s my car?’ and 2003’s ‘Just married. But both films faced some criticisms at the box office. Kutcher had a main role in the time-travel thriller of 2004 called ‘The Butterfly Effect. The film fared well but his ratings were not much. His other movies were not received well and scored below average. Only his 2014 documentary ‘The man who saved the world’ had some fair reviews but his role in it was very minor.

He got similar roles

Ashton Kutcher did not get a variety of roles. In most of his films which were commercial successes, his role was mainly comical. He was liked in this limited realm of acting.

How was Ashton’s comeback?

His TV comeback was not so great!
After not much success on the silver screen, Ashton Kutcher decided to return to the small screen. In 2011, he replaced Charlie Sheen on ‘Two and a Half Men who was shown the door by creator-producer Chuck Lorre. Ashton appeared as the ideal and best replacement for Charlie Sheen at that time. But with Ashton Kutcher’s entry into the show or rather with Charlie Sheen’s exit, the ratings for the show fell. Ashton Kutcher again tried with the revival film ‘Annie’ in 2014. This film proved a failure both with the audience and the critics. He then again turned to the small screen with 2016’s sitcom ‘The Ranch’ on Netflix. However, the series did not get much audience and critical acclaim.
His other success overshadowed his onscreen success

Ashton Kutcher also displayed success as an expert in Silicon Valley-style technology, and a restaurateur. His personal life also made more headlines than his acting skills. He was often seen on the red carpet with his first wife, Demi Moore and they were quite active on social media. His second wife is Mila Kunis and the couple continues to have tabloid headlines.
