It's more like he makes most of his movies as an excuse to get free vacations and hang out with his friends (he's pretty much openly admitted this in the past), so he doesn't really give much of a shit about the material or his performance, and half-asses his way through it.

When he actually takes a role seriously and/or cares about it, he can be surprisingly good. Because that's when he puts the effort in.

It's similar to how Will Smith is actually a great actor, but you never really see it because Hollywood just keeps paying him to play the Fresh Prince over and over and over again. So he basically just shrugs and cashes the check. But when he gets a role he's passionate about, he becomes way better.
Reminds me of something Eddie Murphy once said: "But the money they gave me to do Best Defense, yall woulda done Best Defense too, okay? ... I was like, 'What?! How dare you give me a script like this! Oh, that much money? Lets go!"
