Who's that kid? You know, the one from that movie...

...he plays that awkward teen that wants to get the girl but just can't because he's not man enough.

What. Is. His. Name.



Oh, Michael Cera, that's right. This guy just pisses me off. He plays the exact same character every time he is on camera.

This whole thing started with that Arrested Development show he was on. I'm not saying it's a bad show, but having this guy on it just brings it down a notch for me. I know what you're thinking, "How did you know about Cera when this was the first big thing he was on?". Well, slow your roll there, captain judge-a-lot. I didn't even see a single episode of Arrested Development until a few months ago. I've watched a few of Cera's movies before, and they all suck.

Superbad? Terrible. It was just penis joke after penis joke. Some of the laziest writing I have ever seen.

Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist? Mediocre at best.

Juno? Actually, this one was okay. Only because Ellen Paige had to carry him through the entire film.

But, it's the same thing in each one. He's the awkward kid who knows nothing about the opposite sex, and he longs to get the girl.


But wait a minute... what is this?



Well, now. A chance for Michael to get out of this rut, eh? Okay let's see how it goes...



...What a surprise, he's the exact same character! It never changes with this guy. It is that which makes me hate him.

I've seen the previews for this new movie of his, "Youth In Revolt" where he plays... go on, guess. The awkward teen! But, there's more this time. He has a second persona as a "bad boy" of sorts. Well, at least he's not the awkward kid all the way through the film. However, it's still not enough to make me want to watch it.


To wrap it up, I hate Michael Cera. He's yet to have a role that really tests his range as an actor. Maybe he will someday... and maybe someday Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Sandman will stop drinking.
