Ford's problem is that he is conservative and does not take risks. He was awesome - and so not the stereotypical Harrison Ford - in The Mosquito Coast, but it tanked and he has stuck with playing heroic roles pretty much ever since.
I gotta disagree. Ford doesn't work that much, but I think he's picked lots of interesting parts between his iconic hero roles.
He's an obsessed weirdo in Mosquito Coast. He's a jerk, then a recovering patient in Regarding Henry. The villian in What Lies Beneath. He's mostly a comedic bumbler in Hollywood Homicide and Six Days Seven Nights, and he's a stuffed shirt in Morning Glory. He's was a morally ambiguous anti-hero in Blade Runner. Havent seen it yet, but wasn't he also the villain in Cowboys and Aliens?
