Kevin Costner! Especially if he is directing, too.

I always found Costner to be a terrible actor, but I actually thought he directed Dances with Wolves well.

He never bugged me too much. Most of the ones I listed are the kinds of actors that always seem to be playing themselves. and are real gimmicky. Kevin Costner never really struck me that way. not that I'm a fan or anything

Creekmore

I'm going to go with something current. I don't know if you consider Ryan Gosling a great actor or not, but I can't stand that guy. He almost ruined Blade Runner 2049 for me. Luckily the movie was just too good.

He's a neither/nor for me. I couldn't give a shit one way or another about him. But I'm glad he didn't ruin Blade Runner.

I didn't say they were necessarily bad actors, I just said that I can't stand them. And the reason is that they're overly cutesy, and they're really just doing schtick and going for cheap Applause. They just keep repeating all their cutesy routines that got applause before.

Actually, most of those are actually good actors who made themselves bad. I didn't even get into people who are genuinely Bad actors that I can't stand. This would be people like , for instance, Adam Sandler and people like that. People who aren't even really actors.
