I agree wholeheartedly with Cruise. He's a very good actor. But because he is arguably the most famous actor on the planet, it's almost impossible for him to lose himself in a role. It's also incredibly difficult to forget you're watching Tom Cruise.
Bruce Willis, I'm not so sure. Definitely a competent actor. I'm not sure about underrated.

Not sure about Bruce Willis either, he has an annoying gravitas. Yeah Tom Cruise does have the goodness even if he is annoying offscreen. Viewing him even in MI4 he just seems getting better with age. This brings it to this guy:
Unwatchable in the 90s/early 00s, but past couple of years he's very very good. Can't wait to see him in the coming years.

Viggo Mortensen
He typically plays a narrow set of roles, usually laconic tough guy types, that I didn't realize how much range he has until I saw him play Sigmund Freud in the recent film "A Dangerous Method" and completely nail the role.
