Leonardo DiCaprio. I can never believe he is the character I always see an actor trying to portrait a character. Like with other actores I can believe I am seeing something that happened. With DiCaprio I'm always aware that I'm watching an actor doing a performance.
I don't know if that makes a lot of sense. But it's one of the few "good" actor that makes me feel this way.
Owen Wilson. Something about him just makes me queasy.
Adam Sandler, with the exception of punch drunk love, maybe. I wanted to like tough cut gems, but I have up or of serving hand cringe
Til Schweiger and Matthias Schweighöfer. I hope none of you have ever heard of them. They are just bad at acting and the movies where one of them is the director are just horrible... and still they are in sooo many german movies.
I enjoy them, they're easy to watch, I don't need much
I mean there's a list of actors that have ruined their shows for me:
So it's not really what you asked because these are ones that I used to love and no longer do.
For the dumbest reasons, I can't enjoy Gal Gadot. Her acting is repellent to me for some reason. Yes, she's absolutely gorgeous but the acting ain't great. I also didn't enjoy Heather Graham's acting but then I watched her in Scrubs and the role was just perfect. I hated The Rock's acting as well, but my ex had a crush on him so we watched so many of his movies. Almost all of them shite.
Kevin Spacey has been great or straight up magnificent consistently, lol, is it the moral aspect that disturbs you? I firmly believe (and evidence keeps piling up!) that most Hollywood actresses were couch casted, many boys were touched and the cycle repeats. The entire entertainment industry is compromised and has been for years (check out who taught Diddy his tricks). Nvm the "Hollywood accounting" too, money laundering and all of that.
Basically, if you're enjoying American media, odds are it was made by someone who's gonna go straight to Hell, no "Go" no 200 bucks, and bigger odds than whoever is making money out of your purchase/rental is going to an even lower circle, lol. Just pirate it and you take away your contribution to amorality, right?
A lot of actors are terrible people but Kevin Spacey specifically seems to play it up irl for some reason?
After he got booted for the whole thing he started making videos on his YouTube channel telling the world that he would come for them and that they would regret hurting him while in character as a villain from projects he's worked in in the past.
He's the only actor I know of that knows exactly why people don't want to see him and continues to play into that specifically for some reason...
Gadot being pro genocide is a good reason not to support her
I had an internal laugh to myself in the Wonder Woman movie when the Amazons had an Israeli accent. I guess it was easier to train everyone else to mimic her accent than it was for her to not let it slip.
Tom Cruise I just don't like anything about him
Will Smith, because he's annoyed me in every role after Prince of Bel Air
Hate the person, love the actor. He's made loads of good movies, so I can't complain
I'm not a fan of Tom Cruise either, but I love Edge of Tomorrow. That might be my only exception
I am no fan of Tom Cruise, but his performance in Tropic Thunder is a god damned masterpeice
I enjoyed watching Tom Cruise die over and over and over and over and over.
Minority report was pretty damn solid too. Knght and day wasn't bad for guilty pleasure
I liked Tom a lot in Collateral. Such a great movie.
I don't have a problem with Tom Cruise as an actor, but ever since my daughter pointed it out, I can't help staring at his tooth.
If you stare too deeply into the tooth, the tooth stares back into you.
Mel Gibson.
I renamed my cat because of this guy. I don't really like to change animals names from what it was at the shelter in case they're used to it, and I have a cat named Mel, who I suspect was named for him because there was another nearby cat in the shelter he came from named "Gibson".
So I've renamed him after Mel Brooks.
Tom Hanks. I'm not sure why, as he seems like a perfectly nice person, and even a good actor. But I just find him incredibly irritating for some reason.
I don't know the man but somehow Tom Hanks gives me the "very freaky but very good at hiding it" vibes. 🤷
Yes, exactly! There's a darkness there. Probably.
Jared Leto
Oh another Tron movie! Oh it’s Jared Leto…
My exact thoughts. Sigh.
NiN doing the soundtrack though. Tempting
Kevin Hart- doesn't act, plays himself but doesn't lean into that like Ryan Reynolds does. Will Smith- more of the above in recent years Jonah Hill- something inside me screams asshole every time I look at him Tom Cruise- he can take his propaganda elsewhere.
Adam Sandler
Jennifer Lopez
"Insert ex-Saturday Night Live actor here"
Leonardo DiCaprio (I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I've believed he was a shit actor forever and there's a reason it took him so long to get an oscar...and it wasn't because of "snubbing"...he was just routinely shit up until the Revenant.)
John Travolta
Jennifer Lawrence (Up until recently, she was literally the female DiCaprio. Everything I said about him applied to her. Unlike DiCaprio, she got far far better rather quickly and my issue with her nowadays is mostly her choice of movies just aren't my jam.)
Tom Cruise
Hey now on SNL, bill Hader is awesome especially after Barry. And Phil Hartman
Ha! I was going to pipe up just to mention Bill Hader! He's apparently quite anxious about improv but he's also just so good.
Phil Hartman has honestly been gone for so long now I've forgotten him. But yeah, you are correct.
As for Bill Hader. He's the best of a bad bunch, and he's okay, but being one of the better SNL alums is a very very low bar to cross.
And I mean, yeah...I should definitely clarify that I'm not talking about classic SNL (Eddie Murphy, Chevy Chase, Bill Murray, etc...) That generation made great films after their careers at SNL ended.
Kevin Hart
Ryan Reynolds (other than Deadpool)
Will Smith, after that slapping Chris Rock nonsense
Oh and (am Asian and tried to give her a chance but) Akwafina makes me cringe
Honorable mention: Adam Sandler makes me very wary. I get that he likes making movies with friends, but goddang his lows are low. Although recently I thought Uncut Gems was good
Seth Rogan
Will Farrell's later stuff
Vince Vaughn
Vince Vaughn was perfectly cast for Bad Monkey, IMO. He fit the role well, so he worked well for it.
He's solid (in my opinion) in Brawl in Cell Block 99 also, as one of his non-comedy roles.
