Personally, I like him but I can see why others do not. He essentially seems to be playing the same character in all of his movies with just slight variations.

Can't stand him. You can't argue that every actor has his own persona because Michael Cera doesn't change his tone, inflection, delivery or anything. The only thing that changes in his movies are the words he says.

Having said that, if I was a one note actor I would gladly play the same role over and over until people stopped paying me to do it.

I think what annoys me is that he's 22 & looks and sounds like he hasn't hit puberty yet.

At this point, one can easily assume that he's heard all of the talk about his lack of range, and yet he doesn't even seem to try to break it. Sure, he's making money, but you'd think he'd have more pride in his craft.

Not nearly as annoying as as all the 22 year-old actors/actresses playing high-school students.

Re: Why do people hate Michael Cera so much?
......I think the only High School character in the comic and the film is Knives. And.......she's played by Ellen Wong who's....25. She looked like a High School girl. So....it's ok. It's people who play the young roles and don't look the part is what's annoying but....everyone in the film plays kind of well to the age of the characters. So....what's the point of your question?

Re: Why do people hate Michael Cera so much?
He has no range. The same in everything. Real old.

So, I wouldn't label these guys as one-note. |

Re: Why do people hate Michael Cera so much?
To answer the original question... Because most people don't understand anything about acting or the film industry.

Ok, I meant to say TV comedy, but Six Feet Under and perhaps a couple others slightly top The Shield imo. |

• I don't get TV where I live, the analog repeater for my beloved PBS was turned off in June so I don't even get that anymore; for the last eleven years I got just PBS and CBS. A digital channel scan gives me zip, no signals at all from my big antenna in a tree. Oh well. I've been reading more books and using my HT more. • I refuse to pay $500+ per year for satellite, "just to watch TV". TV on DVD is vastly superior to regular TV for scripted shows anyway and I am utterly baffled by the popularity of the so-called "reality" shows. • I've no patience for sitcoms; the last one I watched regularly was M*A*S*H, which ended in 1983. (No, I've never seen Seinfeld, The Simpsons, or the zillions of others that have come out since.) That said, perhaps I should Netflix Arrested Development to see what the fuss is about, given its cult-like fanbase. But I've been burned by cult shows before, for example: Six Feet Under. |

I've only really loved a few US sitcoms since MASH, Seinfeld being one of them, but Arrested Development tops them all for me. |
Re: Why do people hate Michael Cera so much?
Arrested Development is AMAZING, but be warned, the show goes completely off the rails for the last 5-6 episodes after they realized they were getting canceled/not renewed, those last few episodes are AWFUL and it is really a pity they tarnished the reputation of such a great show.
|
Re: Why do people hate Michael Cera so much?
I totally disagree. I don't remember what happens specifically in the last few episodes (i.e. in which episode things happen), but the last episode, at the very least, is excellent.
