this has to just be a flame. If not, I'm curious to hear who you think isn't overrated.

Haha, you got me. I was gonna say Shia LaBeouf is underrated but I couldn't even joke about that.

This one I could see making a good argument. Personally, I think the guy is great. But he's not a lead role. You can't build a movie around the guy, but he can take a movie with a decent lead and make it better.

Take a look at this and besides John Adams what is there?

Sideways? The Illusionist? Cinderella Man?

Certainly didn't carry the last 2.

Like I said he makes for a great supporting role. Sideways wasn't bad, and I actually haven't seen him as John Adams, but as far as how I rate him I think he is great at what he does.

His last 9 roles are...

Gangs of New York
Catch Me If You Can
The Aviator
The Departed
Blood Diamond
Body of Lies
Revolutionary Road
Shutter Island
Inception

Name me a current actor that has ever had a streak that good at any poin in his career.

And besides, the guy has NEVER WON AN OSCAR for best actor.
How is he overrated?

Oh and cough, I finally got around to watch My Darling Clementine. Good stuff. Ok Coral shootout was pretty good. Fonda is easily my favorite Wyatt of all the Wyatt movies. And Victor Mature was great too.

Have you seen American Splendor?

He was the lead and killed it.

He always seems over the top. That accent in Con Air... AWFUL


Worse than in "Peggy Sue Got Married?"
