I'm not sure how likable he is supposed to be, but Tony Montana in Scarface.

The two main characters in Bride Wars. Why would a man want to be married to either of those shrews? Thats the first movie that i thought of.

and Ray Liotta's character in Goodfellas. Depends how much we mean by like.
In Scorsese films, his main characters are usually kind of alienating. We are looking into their world but not really wanting to be in them I don't think. Usually his main characters seem to screw the lives of others, even those who try to be kind to them. So he lies to Paul Sorvino and both end up in prison-and then on top of it he betrays him to the FBI!
At the end he is bitching that he doesn't have the fancy lifestyle anymore. He didn't even learn anything.

I hated Jimmy Stewart's character in "Vertigo". I assume we're supposed to like him.

All of the little assholes in The Breakfast Club. No character in that movie is particularly likable, but Bender is without question the douchiest.

Yet another John Hughes movie, Buck in Uncle Buck. On the other hand, Tia would be the opposite. The audience was meant to dislike her, and while she wasn't exactly a ray of sunshine, I felt too sorry for her to dislike her.

YES ! I like John Candy but Buck was just obnoxious in a majorly not good way ! Del in Trains Planes etc , on the other hand, was obnoxious but very likeable !

James Bond: amoral killer who puns after the grisly deaths of his enemies; extorts sex from a woman in one of his adventures.

James Bond: amoral killer who puns after the grisly deaths of his enemies; extorts sex from a woman in one of his adventures. What era of James bond films is he unlikeable to you? Just old ones or the newer ones also? And. If so. At what point did he stop being unlikeable.

I'll have to echo the leads in MASH. Ironically I love them in the TV show.
Honorable mention to Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man. Major douche chills in general, but the creepy stalking of Gwen and betraying her dad's dying wish really cement his cunt status.

No Bond or era of Bond is unlikable to me, lol. I'm fine with the character as he has been portrayed since film one. If he were a real person, he would be intensely unlikable, though.

Jordan Belfort and most of the cast of The Wolf of Wall Street for obvious reasons. I don't think we're supposed to like them... hence the "obvious reasons."
