Don Cheadle is one of the most underrated actors.

Trauma-san:
Strangely, I enjoyed Adrian Brody's peformance in "The Pianist" the best out of all of these listed.  I think the list looks kind of sad, to tell you the truth.  That's the best?  I love all of those actors... but none of these performances cited here are really mindblowing.  The reason I love these actors is that they are consistantly good.  For instance I don't care what anybody says, Russell Crowe is a fine actor and every movie I've seen him in, I enjoyed.  However; just because you're a great, consistant, entertaining actor doesn't mean that any 1 performance of yours is mindblowing.

Sean Penn's another good example.  He was GREAT in Mystic River, but I don't know if I'd act like that was one of the best performances I've ever seen.  It was like all of Sean Penn's performances, good, even great, but not anything that would make me go "WOW!" or anything.  Still I would put Sean Penn near the top of any best actor list, but because of Consistancy, not because of any mind blowing single event worthy of a huge award.  If I could give Sean Penn an award, I would give him an award for "I Am Sam" or "Sweet And Lowdown", or "Up at the Villa" way before Mystic River. All of these actors are like that.  Phillip Seymour Hoffman has been a favorite of mine for 6 or 7 years, Sean Penn is great, Denzel is great, etc.
