I love it every time he utters the words MFer in Westworld.One guy who has stood out to me in a few things is Clifton Collins Jr. This guy.

Ben Foster is a boss and nobody knows who he is until "oh, that guy!"
Berry Pepper was fantastic in Saving Private Ryan
Until Bohemian Rapsody Remi Malek was just awesome in about everything. Guess he is not underrated now. However, in the mini series "The Pacific" he was unreal good.
Aaron Eckhart
Cary Elwes

The best rendering of the line "JFC" in the history of American cinema.

John McGinley is a great character actor. Can play a total badass in one movie and a complete douche in the next.
I never knew that was Sam Rockwell in TMNT!!!! My mind is officially blown.
After some of his recent performances in big movies, he's becoming less underrated. But in general he's usually killing it as a supporting actor, so that keeps his underrated cred intact.
Michael Ironside is definitely on that list.
Starship Troopers
Total Recall
Top Gun
Scanners
The Machinist
The guy just kills it in everything.
I did not think I would see a Scanners reference today.
Wait wait wait. Did this get dislikes because people don't like Jason Segel or because they don't think he's underrated?
I think he's fantastic personally.
As always, the challenge here is defining "underrated". There's some HUGE stars listed in this thread.
But let's take a shot -- Tim Curry.
Rocky Horror.
Annie.
It.
Clue.
Muppet Treasure Island.
Earth 2.
Dude can play ANY part. Fantastic.

We gotta include pictures in these posts. I "know" pretty much all of these guys, but most of them are so underrated that I can't put a face to the name. I'm having to google 90% of them.
Kevin Pollak list of movies and no mention of "The Usual Suspects"? For shame!
He was pretty good as the Lord of Darkness too...
Sam Rockwell
Alan Rickman
Brendan Gleeson
Jeffrey Wright
Giovanni Ribisi
(very popular, but I still think underrated) Idris Elba
Jason Isaacs
Taika Waititi
I also enjoy Rufus Sewell as a good villain or heel

I was gonna say Brendan Gleeson as well. Nice addition.
Ones that have been mentioned: Tilda Swinton, Cillian Murphy, Gary Oldman (one of my favorites)
I'll add Julia Stiles. I've been impressed by her growth over the years.
