Can anyone explain the incredible success of Adam Driver?
He has seven films in development:
"Widely regarded as the one of greatest actors of his generation by now both in the United States and internationally as his superb qualities have been expressed further in a sublime range of excellent performances full of unique profoundness, subtlety, charisma and insights..."

Maybe a few years ago but he’s made such bullshit the last few years, he’s almost B-movie camp now.

Because he’s talented. He wasn’t the best looking guy on “Girls” but he played such a quirky, funny, sometimes off-balance character that I always looked forward to his scenes.

R3 That was a long time ago.

Quirky does not mean great actor. He's adequate. He's better suited as a character than lead.

He's so ugly he hurts my feelings.
I hate his deep nasal lurch voice too.
The US doesn't like ugly leading actors - he can go to England for that.

He's like James Woods. You're told he's a great actor when he's really just hard to look at

R8 - well James Woods' ugly right wing politics just makes him even uglier. Ugly inside and out.

he sucks ass at acting, so wooden and autistic. megalopolis is the worst piece of shit ever and mostly because of how absurdly bad and annoying every minute of him is.

I'm not saying these actors are ugly, I'm saying they diverge from norms of leading man handsomeness: Humphrey Bogart, Morgan Freeman, Gene Hackman, Christopher Walken, Sean Penn...

His face is so asymmetrical, he could be Picasso's muse. He's so strange looking, it's distracting. I don't enjoy watching him on screen. His height and full head of hair is why he has a career.

It's not just that he's objectively unattractive - he's got permanent bitch face too.
I've never seen him smile - he doesn't come off as warm or engaging in any interviews.
He looks like an unemployed white-trash hick hanging out in a 7-11 parking lot, throwing dirty looks at people from his beater pick-up truck.
What's to like? No charisma, painful face, a cartoon villain's voice, not funny, doesn't smile or laugh much. We can do better, people.

I like Adam. I think he's a very good actor. He can do both the leading man shit and the character actor shit. He has range.
