Following on from @AmericanPie's thread – which actors/acresses annoy you the most? Who is the most cloying, irritating or just downright bad?

I simply cannot stand Colin Firth. He's basically just an expressionless cardboard cut-out who keeps getting work because women like looking at him and he corresponds to the American stereotype of what an Englishman is like. Hugh Grant also gets work for the latter reason (a German friend recently told me she imagines ALL Englishmen are like Hugh Grant!) but at least he makes me chuckle sometimes.

Jim Carrey, who has spent a good chunk of his career playing the same annoying character. Bruce Almighty was funny mind.

Anyone who "acts" in a Turkish soap. If you're a man, you need to be able to do a poker face and hold a gun (and have lots of facial hair if you're a baddie). If you're a woman, you will basically spend 80% of the time in hospital or crying. Turkish soaps are basically Neighbours with more kidnappings.

I know I'm probably going to be hugely controversial here, but I could never stand Humphrey Bogart movies, don't know why, just the way he acted I suppose.

Also Nicole Kidman is so bland that her movies make me nod off!

Oh and all of the above as well.

 

 

I never used to like Tom Cruise, he always annoyed me but I think it's got something to do with the media. When they faded their interest in him, I actually found more tolerance towards his movies - yet the crap he comes out with tends to me re-think.

Matt Damon be fore he reinvented himself.

The way he spoke in his earlier movies and tried to portray 'acting'.

Leonardo DiCaprio - Nobody could beat him within his teens, extremely smug and over confident. Yet, I started to enjoy his work when he went down the route of portraying real life people.

It's the actresses I fail to remember because I have no care about listening but here goes.

Lindsay Lohan - Does she count as an 'actress'???
Renee Zelleger - just very annoying.
The women out of 'Game of Thrones' Joffrey mum (annoying in it, annoying out.
 

Hugh Grant irritates me. He's basically a caricature of an Englishman in the eyes of Americans.

Also Channing Tatum. He's basically a male model who's winging it in the world of acting because of his looks. Poor actor.

My list would not end but I will spare naming them anyway.

I agreed with you on the favourites thread and I agree with you here too regarding Bogie.I could never see his acting appeal

Julia Roberts. Everyone says she's beautiful but to me she's got a face like a bulldog chewing a wasp, same with Sarah Jessica Parker, ugly old trout.

best post here has to be @BradtheMiller 

throw madonna into the list, how people thought she was good looking at any point is beyond me.
