For example, I don’t like Will Ferrell in his typical roles. Oh they just drive me batty.

But. I do love Stranger Than Fiction. It’s such a cozy movie.

    Pretty tired of seeing Chris Pratt’s face everywhere. His early career was great, but I find him obnoxious these days

    Used to be different but Jack Black needs to go away. Every time I see him in something its the same character over and over, pudgy loser that plays air guitar and scats at every opportunity cause he’s all quirky like that.

    Jared Leto. All his best roles are the ones that could have been better, if they were played by someone else.

        Aronofsky movies are hit and miss with me. They can be brilliant like Black Swan or melodramatic nonsense that mistakes dour abjection and misery with plot. I’d rather go with Trainspotting if I want the “drug addict’s hell-ride” story. It comes up to breathe every so often with some levity and heart.

          I’m NGL, I’ve only watched Requiem twice, the first time for a school project! Maybe it isn’t as interesting as I feel it was. On the other hand, Pi is one of my favourite films and the one I rank highest in his filmography, maybe give it a try? 👍

      See he is the opposite for me. He always seems well cast and he can act. I just dislike him as a person.

      Like Mark Wahlberg, I like him IN things I’ve just never seen him in an interview or casual thing where I didnt think “I believe that IRL he is an asshole”

        Is there a movie where he (Wahlberg) doesn’t play “Jersey boy who made good”? I feel like it’s always the same character with a different job facing a different crisis.

    Steven Seagal, he’s complete garbage on every level. He can’t act, he can’t run, he’s a sex trafficker and rapist, and his whole career was started with a bet by producers to make the most incapable and unlikable person famous.

    Also, aikido, he can’t even do a stupid useless fake “martial art” invented to sell to suburbanite children properly.

      Did you not see that demonstration where he effortlessly destroys an entire dojo of people by wrist-flipping them one at a time without moving his hands more than 20cm?

        That’s a good point, most of them didn’t even come in contact with him before they went flying through the air. Probably a chakra thing, just using raw spirit energy like Naruto.

      I had a friend who did this aikido/irl hadoken energy bullshit. He lost interest in it after my other friend (a Korean dude who didn’t appreciate all this dog shit Orientalism) heaved my electric can opener at him to test his claim that he could stop fast moving objects with his chi.

    Jamie Foxx and his associates were at an adjacent table at at restaurant in LA years ago. He was a total cunt to wait staff. Pure asshole to his core. Restaurant comped our meal because he ruined the evening for everyone.

    Tom Cruise. No exceptions. Even when I don’t realize it’s him in a role (which was basically limited to his role in Tropic Thunder), his performances still irritate me.

      The first thing in which I saw him was the Doctor Who episode The Lodger and I thought he was likeable enough in that. I could never stand him in anything else, his late-night talk show run was a blight on humanity, and even the return appearance of his Who character in a second episode was entirely unnecessary.

    Scar Jo. She’s just not a good actor. Same with Gal Gadot. Also Jack Black and Seth Rogen and the Rock, they don’t act - they’re just themselves in every movie.

      Aside from one or two movies like Tropic Thunder, I feel like Tom Cruise is largely the same way. His movies have largely become a playground for him to fill his Adrenalin lust with crazier and crazier stunts.

        This is the one I came here for. Really don’t care for him. Only exception I make is Edge of Tomorrow which is great. Maybe because his character starts as an entitled ass which feels natural.

      The most entertaining thing Gal Gadot has done was getting cast as Wonder Woman, which forced all the other characters from the fictional island of Themiscyra to speak in an accent like hers in order for her accent to make sense. Watching Robin Wright and everyone else playing Amazons trying to sound Israeli was worth the movie ticket price.

    My wife laothes Tom Cruise. Hard stop. No exceptions. I don’t have any problems with him as an actor, the Scientology insanity is a whole other matter.

    …maybe one exception: I was able to talk her into seeing Edge of Tomorrow by telling her that he dies 26 times on-screen and countless times off-screen.

    I couldn’t stand Jason Statham. Then many years ago I watched Spy with Melissa McCarthy and he was the perfect piss take of his characters from so many other movies. Example scene that shows his comedic stupidity. Ever since I haven’t minded the guy.

    Adam Sandler. I personally feel that his humour is aimed at school children - making silly faces and silly voices and basically making fun of the disabled or neuroatypical - but it’s marketed to adults.

    But I like 50 First Dates. He’s mostly not a shouting toddler in that.

      I thought Sandler in Uncut Gems was pretty good. It’s a serious role, that made me rethink all of the campy comedies he’s done.

      “50 first dates” is such an anomoly. That’s the first Adam Sandler film I ever saw and it was years before I realized why i was getting side-eyed saying I liked his movies. Click was ok too, clearly more for his usual audience though.

    The first one that comes to mind is Jared Leto. Can’t stand him in any role but I will tolerate him in Requiem for a Dream. And even then I’ve only seen that movie once which is more than enough.

      I highly recommend The Little Things where he did a great job even though I hate him too. He was good enough to break through my disgust for him as a person and just be disgusted purely by the character he portrayed.
