The only one I can think of is Adam Sandler. The only movie of his that I liked him in is The Wedding Singer. Normally, I either like someone or I don't. It's rare that I'd only like someone in one role.

The Wedding Singer is one of my all-time favorite movies, Michael. I'm glad you mentioned it!! His version of "Love Stinks" was better than the original. The J. Geils Band weren't angry enough - Adam Sandler just NAILED it!!!

Getting back to the original question, I'd say Jennifer Lopez in Selena. I never could warm up to her in other movies. Though I will say I enjoyed Jane Fonda smashing J-Lo's face into a cake over and over again in Monster-in-Law.

Ben Affleck in Dazed and Confused, I haven't liked him in anything else.

Felissa Rose in Sleepaway Camp when she was 14, her transition to adulthood, well, her acting leaves a lot to be desired.

Jennifer Aniston (or however you spell it) in Office Space

catlover79 · 02-18-2011, 01:25 PM

Yeah, you got it right, Mickey!!

You mean you didn't love Satan's Playground?

I completely forgot to mention Adam Sandler in The Wedding Singer! I could watch that movie a hundred times over! Compared to his other movies, that one deserves an Academy Award!

catlover79 · 02-19-2011, 03:16 AM

That's one of the very few movies my sister and I agree on. That's our favorite Adam Sandler movie, and our brother's is Happy Gilmore.

Jack Black in High Fidelity. He was born to play that role.

After that he let me down. Didnt like anything he did after that.

catlover79 · 02-19-2011, 02:59 PM

Oh yeah, I'd forgotten he was in High Fidelity. Lisa Bonet was also in that movie, right?

I'll say Carrey in "The Truman Show". Really loathe him in just about everything else.

Have you seen "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind"? He's not his usual "Jim Carrey" self in that film.
