Costner gets alot of flak (not entirely undeserved) because people tend to think that his star power clouds his decisions leading him to make expensive flops like The Postman (sorry, but I thought it was pretty bad).
The people who just don't like him anymore, probably loved him in Bull Durham and think that's the kinda of role he should always play.
I don't think he has the greatest range as an actor. But I also think it's unfair to pigeon-hole him.
