2. He's an irritating little f***
But that's just my opinion.

Actually, it looks like it's not just mine.

And, from interviews (i.e., not an impression filtered through a third party of any kind), I get the impression that he's even more irritating offscreen.

6. Rumor has it that this is how he got Joel Schumacher to give him
a part. I mean...a break. :D

Let's hear it for Hollywood gossip!

What a doofus. A rich doofus, yes, but still a doofus.

8. I've seen the name
on Inside Edition/Entertainment tonight like shows? But has he ever made a hit movie being the lone star headliner?

9. Definitely an overrated actor, IMO
I think he just got through to Hollywood based on his looks. I saw him on Jay Leno one time and he came across to me as one unlikeable arsehole (and I couldn't even make out a good portion of the interview because the censors kept bleeping him out).

13. You're definitely not the only one...
Can't stand him. I think people in the US think he's so great because a real live Irishman is such a novelty... :P

18. He does nothing for me - and I have a thing for Irish Men.
Give me Gabriel Byrne, Liam Neeson or Ciaran Hinds any day.

I don't like the brainless little pretty boys.

23. He's a Dub with that awful Dooblin accent..
I saw in People or some other celebrity rag where he's been "off the drink" for six months.

Guess what Colin, I don't give a sh*te...

You're still a terrible actor.

25. Maybe he should start drinking again.
How many times did people tell that to me when I first got sober.
