Tom cruise. So does Kevin Spacey err I mean well you know.... By underrated I assume you mean the public.There are plenty of actors who are highly rated by their peers but not necessarily household names.
One more point |

Tom cruise. Respect to him for doing ALL his own stunts as well, I’ve watched documentaries on the making of the mission impossible films and it’s frightening what he does. He broke his leg in one of them and they left the scene in the film where he did it, once I knew this I watched it closely and you could actually see it snap when you look close enough As you say, he really does give a film his all

i will define under-rated as 'often in a supporting role, but rarely the Star' that bloke who played the cop to Joaquin Phoenix as Joker. If you watch closely, you will see him acting in bloody everything. But he never ever steals the limelight. then you have the fella below....similar. A fine actor, but he will never be an Anthony Hopkins nor a Robert De Niro i really like David Thewlis, the fella in the last link, but he may be too famous to qualify as 'under rated' supporting actors who are ugly, short, or idiosyncratic are always to be admired. Milos Forman & the Coen Brothers seem to value these.

another good definition of 'underrated'......when you hear the name, you do not visualise the face. so clearly, Ewan McGregor or Al Pacino are not under-rated. the actors below are all excellent...i wonder if you can visualise them from the name... - Ciaran Hinds - Raymond Cruz Over-rated ?

I thought for awhile that Ed Norton stank but one night very late they showed the Painted Veil and alongside Toby Jones he really shone,a fantastic performance.

How do you even establish how much someone is rated before you decide whether that's 'over' or 'under'? It seems a bit of a meaningless pastime to me. Incidentally, why is the term 'correctly rated' never used? Edited by YT (09 Sep 2023 9.30pm)

there are supporting actors you don't notice for about 20 years because they're so believable you take their performance for granted - the acting in Inbetweeners is great but the one I like is the bully Mark Duggan - it's probably type casting but he is so spot on you're just watching a c*nt not an actor, and it's a c*nt we all recognise. There are others who are in everything, like Glyn Edwards, Jack Watson and Don Henderson. I like actors who play baddies well, Hal Holbrook or the governor in Shawshank spring to mind, but a personal favourite is Robert Culp who plays the kiler in three Columbo's - he's just got nasty, institutionalised, middle-aged f*cker written across his features - completely convincing.

I wonder if he took his inspiration from the character of 'Passmore' in 'Tucker's Luck'?
