    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.

    Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.

    Although I wouldn't call him an actor. So I'm not sure if I answered the question.

      I absolutely agree with you about Stranger Than Fiction. Mine would be Adam Sandler, do not like that style of comedy. The only exception is Punch Drunk Love. One of my favourite movies! Also Jim Carey, except for Yes Men.

              He has a daughter with an ex (DNA confirmed) but since he hates the ex he refuses to meet the girl (she is like 6yo). There was a video doc about this and the poor little girl looks like him and it's super cute.
              He pays child support but refuses to acknowledge her existence and if a reporter asks he refuses to answer.

              Any man that denies his own child is a horrible person.

                  I have two.

                  I do not like Will Ferrell in his typical roles at all and I’m glad I’m not the only one saying this anymore. Everyone quotes Anchorman and I just did not enjoy that at all, or Elf, Step Brothers, or any of his “everyone loves” movies. Stranger Than Fiction, however, was amazing and I wish he would do more roles like that.

                  Tom Cruise is my other one. I find his acting very bland and unappealing. Mission Impossible has put me to sleep every time I try to watch it. I am not a big fan of Top Gun, Jerry Maguire, or any of them. My Cruise exceptions are Tropic Thunder which I wish he did more comedic roles like that and Minority Report, not a perfect movie but it was the very first DVD I ever owned so there is a bit of nostalgia tied to it.

                    What? No. They were moral opposites, but the character was the same giddy schemer.

                      Justin Long. I can't stand him for some reason. There are only 2 exceptions:

                      1. Idiocracy - because that movie is so great otherwise and he is only in it for like 2 minutes.
                      2. Tusk - Because the whole movie is about someone torturing him.

                        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.

                          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.

                            Tusk was a brutal watch with a real dick (or vagina) punch ending. Great movie that leaves you feeling somewhat soiled for having watched it.

                                  Ryan Reynolds. The exception would be Waiting. I’m just so over him and his one dimensional acting.

                                    I came here to say Will Ferrell with the same exception, then read your post.

                                    Stranger Than Fiction shows Will Ferrell is perfectly capable of being a good actor playing interesting roles, but chooses to just play low effort trash.

                                      That's because he isn't acting. Somewhere along the line he stopped being the actor known as Ryan Reynolds and just became the character Ryan Reynolds.

                                          I like watching Walton Goggins in some roles, but the man himself gives me the stranger danger willies in interviews, etc.
