Ivan, have you seen The Truman Show? Admittedly, some of Carey's comedy performances get quite repetitive, but he's fantastic in a more serious dramatic role in this film. It's actually one of my all time favorite movies, in large part thanks to his acting.

The Truman Show and Man on the Moon are two excelent movies in which Carey does a good job despite his overacting, BUT his performances in:
- The Mask
- Ace Ventura repusive and third class comedy
- Dumb and Dumber; THe name says it all
- The terrible version of the Joker he played in Batman
- Etc. etc. etc.
Are crap, sadly his crap exceeds largely his good roles.

Spacey get's my vote too
I think Sylvester Stallone is seriously under-rated as an actor

Jean-Claude-Van-Damme has gotta be the worst actor on the entire face of this planet.

Bruce is way underrated IMO- Ok he is quite typecast but I've seen enough in Pulp Fiction and Sixth Sense to believe the guy can act.
Jack Nicholson overrated?

I never said he was bad, I actually like most of his work.I just said he was overrated, which is true.(To me at least)
And I agree with you on Julia Roberts.

Nicholas Cage became overrated...John Travolta is a walking joke that somehow is still in demand...I can take or leave Willis but he was great in Pulp Fiction (and, though it's by no means a widely shared opinion, in Hudson Hawk too ).
Johnny Depp keeps on surprising me...for every Pirates of the Caribbean and Sleepy Hollow, there's a Chocolat or Blow to redeem him. And even at his most preening, he has moments of real acting genius (well, maybe not 21 Jump Street and Nightmare on Elm Street).

Stephen Segal , but everyone knows he's as wooden as a redwood pine, so I wouldn't call him overrated.
Bruce Willis? Ever seen 12 Monkeys? The guy's a pro and no mistake!
JC v/Dam.= t**ser!!
