Thread: Actors and Actresses that you just can’t watch.

Jim Carey. He should be melted down and used as a door stop. At least then he’d be useful.
Faux contortions of the face and body are not even faintly amusing. Despite his wooden acting ability, he would be miscast as a tree.

NB. No apologies for the politically incorrect gender assignment.

Add Adam Sandler to the list. And who's that chap who is always cast with him? Rob Schneider.
Peewee Herman.

aren't those all dead in Hollywood terms? I haven't seen them in any meaningful movies since the late 90s

Agree on Adam Sandler, but I would also add, Ben Afflek trying to do comedy. Appalling in Tropic Thunder. He has done some good serious acting, but can’t seem to find his genre.

...Netflix has introduced me to dozens, if not hundreds, of "actors" who are clearly in the wrong line of work...

Agree with TC on this one, Although special mentions must go to Sondra locke (RIP) who has to be up there with worst actors. Brian brown always plays Brian brown. Rebel Wilson plus many others.
Fortunately, I see very little of them as I only have one channel and most of those would be considered "of unsuitable moral character" on the Christian TV channel.

Can't beat him for his acting in 'Zulu'. Other than that.........

Harry Brown is OK.

Nicolas (Coppola) Cage.

^Except for "Leaving Las Vegas".

I think he was perfect in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, which reminds me of someone who should be on today's list: Steve Martin.

Vince Vaughn and Ben Stiller.
Can't agree Michael Caine though.

Did you happen to see the film "A Quiet American"? ( I happen to love the film)

For a long time i thought he was an arrogant prick but I've come around to feel differently about him.

I can't agree with Caine either.

We have an agreement about Michael Caine but I have to wonder why you dislike Vince Vaughn? There are several films he's been in that i enjoy.

Everyone seems to have a Caine movie they like ... and I loved this one.



Still, generally, I don't like him.

NOTHING from David Spade can I stomach ...
