He has limited acting ability and it will be difficult for him to find success, IMO.
It's the Tony Soprano syndrome.

I don't think Hamm is anything at all like Don Draper. Draper is a man with gravitas and I think it's a credit to Hamm that he can pull that off, given that he isn't really that guy. Trouble is there aren't many shows or movies, at least not blockbusters that call for that type of quiet magnitude. Hamm has shown he can do comedy but I don't think that's what people want from him. I think he'd fit in nicely to the type of stuff Ed Harris or William Hurt usually do. Also, he'd make a fine Jack Ryan IMO.
