Really?

I thought, its about time she could play a role that won't put me to sleep,,,for the 2nd time(since I adored her role in Prada ).

Harlepolis said:

I love Phillip in it but the movie just cheated me and I was pissed off. I thought her acting in it was over the top.

Actresses -

Underrated - Emmanuelle Beart, Jennifer Jason Leigh
Overrated - I think the following can barely act and thats Jessica Alba and Cameron Diaz.

I'll have to have a think about the actors part.

Not to mention of someone can take you out of your space and bring you somewhere totally else. that's talent. Many actors as people are overrated but acting as a talent is not.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

I love her,,,,,she has this sincere quality about her, how should I put it? At the risk of sounding corny, "TOO human"

Alot of actors stick to the script so much they don't let their personality to show, I don't think she's really much of a "follow the script" actress.

Juliette Binoche is delightful, and underrated

Harlepolis said:

I like Alfre in EVERYTHING I've ever seen her do. From Passion Fish, Down in the Delta, Miss Ever's Boys...I just love she.

Gwenneth's mom is Blythe Danner. (Will's Mom in Will and Grace)

Underrated - Cynthia Nixon from 'Sex And The City' I saw a Law & Order episode recently that she was in and she was amazing in the role.
