[AndrésC64]

I think he's a good actor and all, but he just comes off boring af. Like soggy mashed potatoes.

I'm not talking about his acting, I mean just his personality or persona. He just comes off as boring. I've never heard anything about him that makes me stand up and take notice.

[jennifer_bloom]

I only remember three movies but I like the way he is, likeable personality and friendly and pure image. The others are too deviant and I only watch them because I have to (I. e. in the movie I want to see, too many to exclude them all…) I will give you the example of Kate Perry, I dislike her because her image is weird, like her make up makes her look like a robot and not a person.

[boredgal]

haha yes I believe you, we all have someone (may be a celebrity or not) that we just don't like no matter what. but i loved forrest gump tho.

[AndrésC64]

Yeah, that is a good one.

[RolandCuthbert]

You understand that he got his start as a comedian.

Right?

Maybe that whole boring thing is a misread.

[MountAverage]

That movie is insane. I used to watch it frequently when I was a teen haha

[RolandCuthbert]

@MountAverage I loved it! Especially the scene where he was playing tennis.

[AndrésC64]

He's not funny either.

[RolandCuthbert]

Dude, watch the movie.

[call_me_scar]

Yeah I don't think about that actor but at least he's not pulling a ezra Miller to my knowledge

[AndrésC64]

Who's Ezra Miller?

[call_me_scar]

The flash from the bad dc movies he's been breaking into houses and assaulting people I think some were minors too

[menina]

Ok, I respect your opinion but I disagree with it. I like him as an actor and he seems to be discreet which is something I like too. I hate when actors and actresses do everything to get attention.

[fonduegirl]

Me either. Not of Julia Roberts or Tate Channing either.

[AndrésC64]

Agreed. Although Julia Roberts and Channing seem to have more personality.

[TroyDT]

I've never gotten lost in one of his performances. In other words, I've always felt like I was watching Tom Hanks acting.

[AndrésC64]

Exactly! To me, he just seems so bland. Acting and as a person. He never really does anything that's incredible. He does good stuff, but not great.

[AndrésC64]

If I had to pick my favorite actor, or movies by only one actor it might actually be Bruce Willis. Again, not what I would necessarily call a great actor, but I enjoy his movies more.

[Daniela1982]

Never seen anything of him except in a movie. But I like most of his movies. I can't say that about most actors.

[ChrisBlue2120]

I do find some of his movies boring, but I do think he did a solid job as supporting actor to Leonardo DiCaprio in Catch Me If You Can.

[Still-alive]

Disagree. the guy has come into his own over his acting career

[AndrésC64]

I'm not saying that he's not a good actor. It just seems like there's nothing really attractive about him, like he has the most blah personality.

[Chazmatazz269]

Tom Hanks is one of the best to ever perform on screen.

[NathanDavis]

yep, and I suspect it might not be as unpopular of an opinion... lol

[ArtemisSilver]

I don't mind him, he's supposed to be a relatable everyman. Weirdly though he seems to pee on camera in all of his most popular movies.

[Snsl153]

Tom Hanks is a f***ing paedophile.

[Andres77]

There’s something creepy af about him.

[maximumpower]

He does nothing for me.
