I feel the opposite. As long as the movie has the time and the budget to do the effect well, I generally find it convincing, and I honestly kind of love it because it allows movies to use the same actor for different stages in their life.

I've always been really bothered by the actors who get picked to play a character when they're younger/older. To me it's just really jarring 98% of the time. Whenever a film goes this route I literally cannot focus past my brain loudly shouting about how blatantly different the younger actor's features are from the older actor's features.

The one exception is, of course, if it's a flashback to childhood for an adult character, or vice-versa. In that case, casting two different actors is definitely preferable to whatever OTT CGI they'd have to do to age an adult actor down that far or a kid actor up that far. But who knows, another couple of years and we might even be able to do that effect convincingly. *shrugs*
