Under-rated Actors/Actresses

[CharlieAddict]

lee van cleef - one of the most characteristic voices/faces ever.

the same goes for burgess meredith - okay he was more of a voice-man but c'mon...for such a little ugly looking guy he did well to have made in hollywood.

A few that I think are under-rated:

Ed Harris
Ray Liotta
Kevin Bacon
Laura Linney
Matthew Broderick
Christian Bale
Toni Collette
Robert Downey Jr.
Gary Oldman

Heaps more ............

They are all hugely successful and highly regarded character actors and just because they don't get the same media exposure as film stars like Tom Cruise or a Julia Roberts that doesn't mean the are underrated.

Ted Danson. On the same night can crack me up laughing in Curb Your Enthusiasm, then scare the crap out of me in Damages.

very true.

Gary Oldman, Christian Bale, Toni Collette (awesome), Ray Liotta are household names!! i mean Oldman like vintage Hoffman is known as a 'method' actor or something...

 

[Orang Utan]

Why the confusion? He's in both shows on Monday nights

 

[Kaka Tim]

Gary Oldham is a total fucking ham.

LOOK AT ME BEING INTENSE AND CRAAAAAAZZZZYYYYY!!!!! (yawn)


Underated - Christina Ricci. Stole the show in Adams Family Values, brilliant in Opposite of Sex and then seems to have dropped off the radar.

She's in a recent film called Penelope in which she sports the snout of a pig - it had been on the shelf for a couple of years mind

I always liked the way she looks and she gets cast for her indie credibility, but I think she's not much of an actress. All she really does in the Addams Family films is to affect a frown from beginning to end and every time she is asked to play something that is outside of her limited range (Sleepy Hollow, Monster) she's just plain awful.

I had the misfortune to see a preview of this and there is a reason it had been shelved for so long. It was the worst film I've seen so far this year.

Righto then.
