What are some acclaimed actors you don't like
Ryan Goslin, I just don't understand the love for this man, he's okay at best
Margot Robbie, it' enough, she not that good.
Mila Kinus, just awful
Channing Tatum, has there ever been a a worse actor, the man is absolutely dreadful
I’m not sure if he is acclaimed but, Keanu Reeves.
shareI agree. I also don't like Ben Affleck, but he's probably not "acclaimed". For one who's actually acclaimed I'd say Meryl Streep. I don't hate her, but she's overrated and that Golden Globes political speech was nuts. Never got the hype over George Clooney, either.
shareGeorge Clooney is way over rated and makes pretentious films.
shareI don't like Meryl Streep either. I will say I liked her performance in "The Deer Hunter" and I don't think I am her "target audience" for most of her movies.
What I found so odd about her Golden Globes speech is that I think Streep was an ex-cheerleader in high school. Why be a cheerleader if you hate sports that much? It was bizarre for sure.
I know he is a great actor but there was always something about Tom Courtenay that set my teeth on edge. Same thing but in a different way for Oliver Reed.
Richard Harris, Richard Burton, Ralph Richardson, Dickie Attenborough, Helen Mirren, Judy Dench, Elizabeth Taylor, Katherine Hepburn and Angela Lansbury never appealed to me ( although Elizabeth Taylor was adorable as a child in 'Jane Eyre' from 1943 ).
Charlton Heston could be awful in a role that didn't suit him.
Robin Williams I found to be cringeworthy in his comedy roles but a great dramatic actor.
Natalie Wood, a beautiful woman but not a great actress.
Vincent Price and Simon Callow, too fruity.
Mickey Rooney, too full of himself.
Ernest Borgnine gave off a cringey vibe.
Mickey Rooney to me never grew up as an actor. The innocent "Gee whizz" routine worked as Andy Hardy but he uses it in everything. I have seen him as a criminal on death row, a Korean war helicopter pilot, elderly security guard, same thing every film whether it suits or not.
Natalie Wood, I feel like she chose some really bad roles.
Ernest Borgnine gave off a cringey vibe. LMAO🤣
shareWill Smith, maybe not so acclaimed anymore but same shtick every film. Annoying son he likes to cast too.
Denzel Washington, same shtick every film.
Robert De Niro, I don't get it.
Al Pacino, over actor supreme.
Nicole Kidman, pretentious films.
James Dean, sulks his way through films. I don't get how that could be considered cool.
I should have had Will Smith on my list, he's just not good. King Richard was the one film he s really good in, but he should never have won for that
shareI actually have Denzel Washington, Robert De niro and Al Pacino in my top 5 best actors ever. Just shows you difference of opinions
shareAt least with De Niro he can be different in each role.
I watched a few Denzel films a few months ago and every movie it is the same thing. Doesn't matter what the role is, he plays it exactly the same way.
I haven't seen King Richard but I have seen other Will Smith films, I remember he was ok as Mohammad Ali. It's not so much his acting itself but more the range or lack of his range that's the problem. He basically plays the Prince of Bel Air in every role whether that role calls for that sort of personality or not.
I've never been that impressed with Robert Redford.
shareRyan Goslin
was the first and only name that came to mind reading the thread title.
His performace in "Driver" was terrible. It might have been the scriptwriters fault though.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Jennifer Lawrence
