Owen Wilson. He has one tone and always looks spaced out.

Vin Diesel. Nothing against the guy personally, but his whole dumb guy thing just irks me.

Jessie eisenberg. He only plays jessie Eisenberg. I hate his whiny delivery. The “Now you see me” movies were awful, and he ruined Lex Luthor.
I can’t think of anything he’s been in that I’ve thought was good.
(Nicholas hoult as LL looks great though)

John C Riley is an uncomfortable mess in everything he's in and I cannot stand it. The exception is everything he's in, which is delightfully uncomfortable.
Chicago is my favorite of his
My wife laothes Tom Cruise. Hard stop. No exceptions. I don't have any problems with him as an actor, the Scientology insanity is a whole other matter.
...maybe one exception: I was able to talk her into seeing Edge of Tomorrow by telling her that he dies 26 times on-screen and countless times off-screen.

I apologise if this seems inappropriate, but I kinda like your wife now. And you for putting that argument up in the first place.

I came here to say Will Ferrell with the same exception, then read your post.
Stranger Than Fiction shows Will Ferrell is perfectly capable of being a good actor playing interesting roles, but chooses to just play low effort trash.
I feel the same way about Adam Sandler except for Punch Drunk Love. the right role makes a big difference.
I think Punch Drunk Love was his best serious role, but I also remember liking Reign Over Me and Spanglish. His more recent Uncut Gems was pretty good too.

Jim Carrey in Eternal Sunshine.
He's OK in other stuff but it's not my bag unless it's the fucking mask 👌
Nathan Fillion
Campy actor from campy shows that people made their personalities for lack of better alternatives.
They hated him because he told the truth
Jared Leto, too bad he is in the Tron: Ares which I'm almost looking forward to watch simply because of nine inch nails...

I cannot, for the life of me understand the appeal of Russell Crowe. Except I have no problem with his brutish density in L.A. Confidential.

Ben Stiller. I just can't get into anything he's in. He's just reading lines, nepo-baby for sure.
Exceptions: dodgeball, and tropic thunder, holy FUCK is he funny in tropic thunder
If those are your exceptions, strongly recommend Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Gorgeous scenery and a shot at stiller acting
