Oddly enough...John Cusack. He's been in some movies that weren't great...but I've always thought he has been a consistent performer.

From Klitz to Brian Wilson, nails them all.

Tom Cruise. He was in a bad movie but not because of him.

Who are the savages downvoting you? yes, he's not a Cazale, Rockwell, or Hoffman type level yet he literally steals every scene of every movie he has ever been in. and his catalog is varied!
RocknRolla, The New Iberia Haircuts, er, I mean Peeky Blinders, Inception.
Dude steals them all.

Daniel Day Lewis is the greatest actor to exist during my lifetime.

I might have missed it, but 3rd page and no Tom Hanks? Hanks is ridiculously consistent with quality performances.

His brief appearance in Gandhi as a South African street thug was somewhat "cookie cutter".

I will go with two way out of left field.
Slim Pickens. He's mocked by some who have bought into the notion that Kubrick told him to play the role straight because he though Pickens wasn't smart enough to realize it was a satire. Which is horse shite because Pickens was Kubrick's first choice for the Dick Halloran role in The Shining.
The second... Jerry Reed.
Jerry never had an acting class in his life but he had a knack for getting into a character. Yes, most of them were humorous roles but watch him in The Survivors where he plays a hitman. He's funny as can be, and then deadly serious in the very next line. If he had gone into acting full time rather then dabbling in it while he continued his career as a songwriter and musician who is to say what he could have accomplished?

In the that same vein I feel the same about Burl Ives. A balladeer by trade, I thought he was totally convincing as Big Daddy in "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof", and as the sheriff in "East of Eden".
