I don't see a problem when Director's do this
They know the exact way they want the character to act and most times play it very convincingly
except uno fartarino, his characters are always shit

you know he wasn't supposed to be in Taxi Driver but the actor they hired for that scene never showed up so Scorsese just did it himself

It does look muted, it was never like that any versions I've seen. It may be from a VHS or something.

I'm surprised he didn't cast himself as John if he really wanted to do that then, Audrey is clearly the hottest woman alive

Cool, I didn't know that. He was great in it, though. I liked his cameo in The King Of Comedy as well.

Citizen Kane was incredible.
The Room was not.

How is this any different than any other movie when it comes to mediocrity/success ratios?

One of the worst cases for me was John Woo's role in Hard Boiled as the owner of the jazz club. Who, cleverly, was named Mr. Woo. I'm serious.
