Seriously Underrated.

Sort by:

Showing 21 items

8.3

1. Michael Fassbender

So, he's becoming more well known for X-Men but not many people have seen his amazing performances in Fish Tank and Hunger. If he doesn't win an Oscar in the next few years there is something wrong with the world.

Ultraviolence.'s rating:

7.4

2. Andrew Garfield

His performance in Boy A was so heartbreaking.

Ultraviolence.'s rating:

8.2

3. Ryan Gosling

For a while I didn't think of Ryan Gosling as anything special but after watching Blue Valentine I realised he has real acting talent.

Ultraviolence.'s rating:

8.3

4. Benedict Cumberbatch

Incredible in BBC's Sherlock. They couldn't have picked a better man.

Ultraviolence.'s rating:

7.8

Amazing voice, amazing song writer.

Ultraviolence.'s rating:

7.4

6. Regina Spektor

More people should know about this woman!

One of my favourite actresses. I first saw her in Doctor Who and didn't think very much of her but seeing her in Never Let Me Go changed that.

Ultraviolence.'s rating:

7.5

She's one of those natural beauty's with likeable charisma.

Ultraviolence.'s rating:

Uh... Where's his Oscar?

Beautiful and talented. Yet no one seems to remember her?

Unbelievably gorgeous and underrated in The Disappearance of Alice Creed.

Hardly anyone has heard of these guys. Why? They're brilliant musicians.

6.5

17. Editors

Original musicians with amazing lyrics.

Ultraviolence.'s rating:

8.3

His performance in Leon is especially underrated.

No one ever mentions him despite doing brilliant work in Watchmen and Shutter Island.

Ultraviolence.'s rating:

6.4

Don't forget, Michael Fassbender is in Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds too.

I'd say Sam Rockwell, Anthony Perkins and Malcolm McDowell are underrated actors also.

I agree with you about Michael Fassbender. He is the best actor in last years. He is genius.

I agree about Michael Fassbender (have you seen him in Shame and Jane Eyre?!) and Ryan Gosling (best performance: Drive)!

Well, Michelle Williams should be crossed off of this list after My Week With Marilyn, don't you think? I agree with, like, 90% of your list. They deserve some recognition. On the other hand, I kinda like when I get to know amazing works like theirs before the media does, because when they (the media) pay attention to them it's when great talents such as Fassbender end up on dull blockbuster characters.

Viggo Mortensen is extremely overrated. He also has been great in his small parts (crippled guy in Carlito's Way, who I had no idea was him for a while)

Glad you picked Editors. They made unbeliavable beautiful music :)
I saw Fassbender in British TV-show Hex, I thought then that he is brilliant actor and so underrated.

I think you're going to have to remove a few of these (Ryan Gosling is most prominent in my head) but I agree with the majority of them :D
