Is there an actor you can't stand? Do they have any exceptions?
-
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.
Danny McBride. I can grit my teeth if he's playing a small role, 30 Minutes or Less was pushing the limit, but he so often plays the same insufferable, arrogant asshole and he plays it too well.

Zombieland
Social Network
Though both those were good despite him
Id forgotten about zombieland. I now have an exception for the purposes of the original post, thank you! I’d avoided the social network because i also can’t stand mark zuck

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.

Gonna take it in a slightly different direction and pivot the question to music. And in that case, Red Hot Chili Peppers, it's time to stop. I get it, it was cool and unique. But now, it all sounds the same, and you headline every festival ever and I can't enjoy the same 5 songs being crammed down my throat for the next 5 decades to come still. Please stop. I know you "can't stop", but please, please, stop.

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.
Gavin and Stacy?

Tom Cruise, no explanation needed

I don't care for "Home Alone 2" star Donald Trump
This gave new an idea.
Donald currently enjoys erasing history - rewriting slavery, removing BIPOC accomplishments, etc. What if we start removing him from old media? Re-record a version of that movie that didn’t have Trump in it, erase old copies of The Apprentice, etc.

Nathan Fillion
Campy actor from campy shows that people made their personalities for lack of better alternatives.

Sean Penn, Adam Driver and this fart:

Fuck (and I cannot emphasize this enough) fuck Timothy Chalamet. He is always so wooden. He can't act for shit. Hes just a very pretty nepo baby.
Also, can we count film makers? I hate Christopher Nolan. Every movie he makes is such a torturous slog. They are all metaphors for their own creation, and everyone of them is too concerned with the machinery, like hes pretentiously drawing attention to it. "GET IT? IM MAKING A MOVIE? IM A FUCKING GENIUS!"

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.
I love watching him in the stupid repetitive action flicks! The whole genre is great entertainment when you want to just see something total garbage, and he's my favorite lead for them because he has the vibe of doing it ironically. Sometimes the actors are too serious and that kinda ruins the fun

Tenet frustrated me. You could tell that there was a good movie there but the sound mixing was horrible and the execution was lacking.

Have you seen The Basketball Diaries?
This is the film he did that everyone should judge him by.
-
I cannot, for the life of me understand the appeal of Russell Crowe. Except I have no problem with his brutish density in L.A. Confidential.
Have you seen The Nice Guys?

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.
Have her watch Tropic Thunder and dont mention his cameo. Its his best work.
-
Ben Stiller. I just can't get into anything he's in. He's just reading lines, nepo-baby for sure.
Exceptions: dodgeball, and tropic thunder, holy FUCK is he funny in tropic thunder
You know he wrote Tropic Thunder and Zoolander?
-
Ryan Reynolds. The exception would be Waiting. I’m just so over him and his one dimensional acting.
Watch "Voices" as it is very different and much darker than his normal work.
-
Jeremy Renner.
Has he ever actually been good in anything (besides the Jeremy Renner app and his legendary rock and roll music)?
The Hurt Locker?
-
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.
Although I wouldn't call him an actor. So I'm not sure if I answered the question.
If he isn't an actor what is he? Remember acting is a significant part of pro wrestling. You can argue he is a bad actor but it is silly to say he isnt an actor

Will Farrell
Vince Vaughn
Seth Rogan
All there are annoying as shit.
Vaughn plays against type in Freaky which was pretty good.
