Leonardo DiCaprio (I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I've believed he was a shit actor forever and there's a reason it took him so long to get an oscar...and it wasn't because of "snubbing"...he was just routinely shit up until the Revenant.)
-
John Travolta
-
Jennifer Lawrence (Up until recently, she was literally the female DiCaprio. Everything I said about him applied to her. Unlike DiCaprio, she got far far better rather quickly and my issue with her nowadays is mostly her choice of movies just aren't my jam.)

Hey now on SNL, bill Hader is awesome especially after Barry. And Phil Hartman
Ha! I was going to pipe up just to mention Bill Hader! He's apparently quite anxious about improv but he's also just so good.
Phil Hartman has honestly been gone for so long now I've forgotten him. But yeah, you are correct.
As for Bill Hader. He's the best of a bad bunch, and he's okay, but being one of the better SNL alums is a very very low bar to cross.
And I mean, yeah...I should definitely clarify that I'm not talking about classic SNL (Eddie Murphy, Chevy Chase, Bill Murray, etc...) That generation made great films after their careers at SNL ended.
Tom Cruise I just don't like anything about him
Will Smith, because he's annoyed me in every role after Prince of Bel Air
Hate the person, love the actor. He's made loads of good movies, so I can't complain
I'm not a fan of Tom Cruise either, but I love Edge of Tomorrow. That might be my only exception
I am no fan of Tom Cruise, but his performance in Tropic Thunder is a god damned masterpeice
I enjoyed watching Tom Cruise die over and over and over and over and over.
I'm just here to watch the bird people fuck
I liked Tom a lot in Collateral. Such a great movie.
Minority report was pretty damn solid too. Knght and day wasn't bad for guilty pleasure

I don't have a problem with Tom Cruise as an actor, but ever since my daughter pointed it out, I can't help staring at his tooth.
If you stare too deeply into the tooth, the tooth stares back into you.
Toofs
Nope. Toof. Singular.
He has a front tooth. Where most of the rest of us have two upper front teeth, co-captains of the mouth, he has one right there in the middle.
Wait until you watch Legend and see his teeth before he had work done.
My one co captain tooth is in front of another despite years of braces :( slowly leading to a central tooth and worries that I'll have to get the misplaced one removed
I mean there's a list of actors that have ruined their shows for me:
- Danny Masterson
- Bill Cosby
- Kevin Spacey
- James Franco
- Kevin Sorbo
- Tom Cruise
So it's not really what you asked because these are ones that I used to love and no longer do.
For the dumbest reasons, I can't enjoy Gal Gadot. Her acting is repellent to me for some reason. Yes, she's absolutely gorgeous but the acting ain't great. I also didn't enjoy Heather Graham's acting but then I watched her in Scrubs and the role was just perfect. I hated The Rock's acting as well, but my ex had a crush on him so we watched so many of his movies. Almost all of them shite.
Gadot being pro genocide is a good reason not to support her
I had an internal laugh to myself in the Wonder Woman movie when the Amazons had an Israeli accent. I guess it was easier to train everyone else to mimic her accent than it was for her to not let it slip.
Which Rock movies aren't shite? I recall enjoying the Rundown, but that was also well before reaching the current saturation point

Kevin Hart- doesn't act, plays himself but doesn't lean into that like Ryan Reynolds does. Will Smith- more of the above in recent years Jonah Hill- something inside me screams asshole every time I look at him Tom Cruise- he can take his propaganda elsewhere.
Mel Gibson.
I renamed my cat because of this guy. I don't really like to change animals names from what it was at the shelter in case they're used to it, and I have a cat named Mel, who I suspect was named for him because there was another nearby cat in the shelter he came from named "Gibson".
So I've renamed him after Mel Brooks.

Seth Rogan
Will Farrell's later stuff
Vince Vaughn
Amber Heard, Will Ferrell, Rodney Dangerfield, Jada Pinkett Smith.
Poor guy can't get no respect
I don’t switch anything off faster than when Danny McBride shows up
I used to think he was just a crass asshole but after watching and then loving Righteous Gemstones, he grew on me. Gemstones is such a crazy, hilarious, and satisfying show and the fact that he created/showran it changed my mind about 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.
The Rock is definitely overused, but he f****** killed it in the Rundown with Sean William Scott. I love Sean Williams Scott
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

Shia LeBeouf, though he's mostly gone away at this point.
He's following you, about 30 feet back.
He's awesome in Fury, as everyone is in that movie
That movie changed my mind on Jon Bernthal, he was so good in it. I had only seen him in the first season of Walking Dead and thought he was pretty bad. I think most of that was just the show though, the dialogue was terrible.
That was a surprise, usually hate him
