He has undeniable star power, that counts for a lot.
I think he is actually quite a reliably good actor as well. #opinions #internet

Yeah I mean, he can do all the emotions with his face on command, and remember words, and knows where the camera is.
Given that there are successful actors who cannot do any of those things I'd say Smith is doing pretty well. Dunno anything about the Master Actor criteria though. He's obviously been high on his own farts for a decade or two by now and his kids are super creepy. This is just about all I care to know about Will Smith.
