^Yeah....I think that Gosling in particular is really talented, and so is Zooey Deschanel, but "underrated" is sort of a badge of honor, belonging to actors who have been around for a long time, have done great work consistently, are very talented, but have not gained the recognition they deserved. Nobody on this list qualifies in the slightest.
At one point Jeremy Piven and Hugh Laurie were underrated--they've recently gained a lot of deserved recognition through television (even if Piven is an asshole, he's a good actor). Imelda Staunton, Khandi Alexander....my gosh, there's a whole bunch of them. I don't think anyone deserves to be considered "underrated" until they hit 30.
