Movies Underrated Actors

Shia LeBouf.. Has fans?! I like some of his acting roles but I never knew he was well liked, I know there's that meme song about him getting you. And that time 4chan drove me insane! My pick is this person:

LEEH! I posted too early! I was going to say Omar Sharif but he seems too well appreciated so I'll say:

(Lee Van Cleef)

Dollar trilogy is fantastic <3

Yahyah! I just thought he was the coolest character, he's done other spaghetti western movies but.. their names I don't remember. I really got in to them when I was 16 because of how different the American West is to green fields.
 
(I assume it means actresses as well?).

All of them stopped acting almost immediately after they left their mark, but I always thought that Cara Delizia, Frances Encell and Lynn Styles could have become great actresses had they stuck around. They absolutely nailed their roles, especially Styles, bringing out some really memorable performances as the hot-headed, almost paranoid Hannah O'Flaherty. I still watch some random episodes of "Foreign Exchange" just for the chemistry the leads have.

Of course! Actress is welcome! : D
I gotta make my titles more inclusive to avoid confusion xDD
 
I've been on an Akira Kurosawa kick lately for a writing project with a friend of mine, so I'm gonna throw Takashi Shimura out there.

Most people think of Mifune when they think of Kurosawa's films and while that man was a fantastic actor, one of my personal favourites of them - The Idiot, a Dostoevsky adaptation - would never have worked without Shimura.
The man had an effortless likeability to him that Mifune just lacked.

Here's my two picks. Brad Dourif and Jeffrey Combs respectively. Doesn't matter what the film/tv show is about these guys always bring their A-game. Plus they've both done a fair amount of Star Trek which is a plus in my book.

Jeffrey Combs is an absolute legend! Everything he did together with Brian Yuzna - Re-Animator and From Beyond in particular - is pure gold.

I'll add Barbara Crampton as well - fantastic actress that I really wish had gotten some bigger roles when she was still acting.

He's had some great voice acting roles too. Scarecrow in the new batman adventures, the Question in Justice League Unlimited and Ratchet in Transformers Prime just to name a few. Very distinctive voice that dude, I swear you can hear little touches of madness in his cadance. Easily one of my favorite VAs that dude

Don't forget about his Myriad roles in Star Trek, all of his characters were great and for very different reasons :)

As for my submission to the list:

*PIC OF A LIST HOLLYWOOD ACTOR*
I may need a definition of underrated here, does it include a multi million dollar net worth and 5 huge budget movies a year?
I was just about to post Werner Herzog's favourite narcissist, unsurprisingly it turns out he's a really evil person.

What about Patrick Magee?

Oh absolutely, scum of the earth. Ever hear about that time he tried to get Herzog killed?

That said, his daughter Nastassja absolutely deserves a mention - Paris, Texas for example is fantastic!

Terrible trailer (as per usual), but at least it shows off some of the cinematography.
