For me it's The Rock and Chris Pratt.

Guardians of the Galaxy was great but I just wish he would stop playing starlord in every other role he's in!

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

I +1 that Will Smith sentiment.

I feel like a hypocrite somewhat, since I'm aware of other actors who did far worse things and yet I'm not as put off in a similar manner. I guess it's easier to separate the art from the artist in some people more than others...

[–] MelonYellow@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 day ago

He was great in action/comedy big blockbuster flicks but that Oscar slap made him super insecure and uncool. Like he lost his swag. Will Smith doesn’t sell that he’s That Guy anymore

[–] Maven@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago

Holy shit idk how I forgot to mention Kevin Hart!

This. I'm sure Mission Impossible series are entertaining action movies, but I really can't stand looking at his smug face.

The Rock is definitely overused, but he f****** killed it in the Rundown with Sean William Scott. I love Sean Williams Scott

[–] starlinguk@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

Will Ferrell. He gives me the creeps and he isn't funny.

[–] Davel23@fedia.io 13 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Shia LeBeouf, though he's mostly gone away at this point.

[–] cattywampas@lemm.ee 14 points 1 day ago (2 children)

He's awesome in Fury, as everyone is in that movie

[–] zipzoopaboop@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 23 hours ago

That was a surprise, usually hate him

I’m surprised nobody’s said Ezra Miller yet.

Also Noah Centineo, Shailene Woodley, and - she seems like a sweet person but - Kristen Stewart.

Plus any Disney/Nickelodeon kids who never grew up past that phase; like Debby Ryan or Bella Thorne (though I don’t think she’s done much lately).

ETA: Lacey Chabert, as she’s exclusively in Hallmark-type slop now. It’s concerning.

Amber Heard, Will Ferrell, Rodney Dangerfield, Jada Pinkett Smith.

Hugh Grant. I'm sure he's both a wonderful person and a great actor, but... he seems to have gotten typecast into a certain type of movie that I just cannot stand. He's become a litmus test for movies I should just not bother watching.

[–] hydrashok@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I’d recommend watching Heretic. I thought he crushed it as a bad guy. I also liked him in The Gentleman. Both are far from his Notting Hill and Two Weeks Notice romcom type stuff.

[–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Wtf, Hugh Grant as a bad guy? I'm intrigued.

[–] Maven@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 day ago

Dungeons and Dragons, Heretic, Paddington 2...

He's been doing a lot of villain movies recently and he is FANTASTIC at being the bad guy!

I agree that he is awful as the main character though... I want to see him defeated!!!

[–] starlinguk@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

He's great as a villain in Heretic and, oddly enough, in Paddington too.

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

Yes heretic was pretty good, recommended.

I don’t switch anything off faster than when Danny McBride shows up

Jenna Ortega. For awhile I only saw her name in poor bastardizations of my favourite childhood media and it has soured me on her work entirely.

[–] TotallyNotSpezUpload@startrek.website 4 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Henry Cavill. I've got nothing against him, I just can't stand his face.
