No, no, no! He is UNDERrated as an actor, because he is actually VERY GOOD. But I accept he's an IDIOT when accepting roles for films...

"Titanic" has such a bad script that even if the actors performed well, they look SO bad because of the horrible story and the hedious script. Other films such as "The Man in the Iron Mask" and "The Beach" are bad films as well. But I think you should watch "Éclipse total" where he plays his most wonderful character of his career, the French 'damned' poet Arthur Rimbaud. His performance is by far exquisite and fenomenal, you get to understand really the nature of this 'crazy' and 'careless' poet, the father of all modern poetry. Also, the film shows that he has guts to play any role! You can't say that he wasn't good with Steve's "Catch me if you can". I only think he should chose much dramatic and 'crazy' roles so everybody can see his talent, which is even greater than his physical beauty.
