The&nbsp;best actors in film history are a great subject of debate. These are the greatest actors ever to appear on the silver screen - male only (to vote on both genders, check out this list of <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-greatest-film-actors-and-actresses-of-all-time">the greatest film actors and actresses</a>). These gentlemen were part of some of the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-best-movies-of-all-time">greatest movies of all time</a> (or were perhaps the reason they were the best movies ever), with countless <a href="http://www.ranker.com/tags/Oscars">Academy Awards</a> between them.

What are the qualities of the best actors of all time? Remember, this is not simply about the most famous actors of all time, or the most popular actors. Is it the raw emotion they show, the parts they choose, their acting methods, or simply their effortless charm and charisma? There&#39;s no denying some of these amazing actors belong on the list of the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/hottest-male-celebrities">hottest male celebrities</a>, but behind the 1000 watt smiles lies the talent that defines generations of top actors. An argument could be made for some on this list that they are the best actor in the world.

Who is the best actor of all time? Is it a classic actor like Marlon Brando, a comedic genius like Charlie Chaplin, a double-threat like Clint Eastwood, or a method actor like Daniel Day Lewis? There are so many choices for the greatest movie actor ever that you may have a hard time picking just one. Good thing you can vote for as many candidates for best actors ever as you&#39;d like.

Lists of fun facts and differing opinions about Hollywood's biggest, most self-congratulatory night.

The Oscars

There are many actors who haven&#39;t won an Oscar. For 95 percent of the acting population, there is probably a good reason they haven&#39;t taken home one of film&#39;s most prestigious honors. Only two actors per year can win either the best actor or best supporting actor Oscars, leaving eight other nominees with nothing.&nbsp;

But does the Academy always get it right? There are plenty of actors who haven&#39;t won an Oscar, despite the fact that they&rsquo;ve turned in amazing performances. Whether it&rsquo;s due to stellar competition, bad luck, or an out-and-out snub, some artists have never gotten the recognition they deserve. Of course, some actors - like the great <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/underrated-gary-oldman-movie-and-tv-roles/mike-mcgranaghan" target="_blank">shapeshifter Gary Oldman</a> - do finally get recognized after years without even a nomination, let alone a win.

Johnny Depp and&nbsp;Edward Norton&nbsp;are all big draws at the box office who haven&#39;t received the same respect of the Academy that they have from audiences. While they&#39;ve all been nominated for Oscars, they&#39;ve never taken home the big prize. Other top actors without acting Oscars include Liam Neeson, Robert Downey, Jr.. Matt Damon, and Michael Fassbender. This list of Hollywood celebrities who have no&nbsp;Academy Awards also includes Black actors, like Will Smith, and famous classic stars, like Peter O&#39;Toole and Cary Grant. How these people never won an Oscar will always be a mystery!&nbsp;

There are a surprising number of big name actors who haven&#39;t won an Oscar. Vote up the actors you think should&#39;ve taken home the trophy below. Then check back to see if your favorites topped the list!&nbsp;

The 200+ Greatest Actors Who Have Never Won An Oscar, Ranked By Fans

Best Movies

This list of the most overrated actors of all time, has been ranked by critics and fans from all over the world. Actors are seen as the face of the movies, television, and other media products in which they star. Hollywood <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-greatest-film-actors-and-actresses-of-all-time?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">actors and actresses</a> have become like gods to many people around the globe, and they are worshiped with praise, money, awards, and gifts.

However, many of the actors receiving the most accolades are extremely overrated in their raw talent, charisma, and chemistry with other actors. Some believe that overrated male actors, like Tom Cruise and Will Smith, bring in the big box office bucks, but have little to no acting range and often phone in their performances.

Many of the actors who get the most praise gave one or two great performances, but then rested on their laurels for the rest of their careers. Others are pretty good actors, but nowhere near as talented as the overwhelming praise they receive. Even more overrated celebrities&nbsp;have no talent at all, but are famous because of their looks and personality. Bottom line: some of the actors and actresses from classic movies aren&rsquo;t as gifted as many claim.

Who are the most overrated actors and actresses? This list features current and old Hollywood actors who are rated far more highly then they deserve (for their acting skills). Make your opinions heard by voting below!&nbsp;

Looking closer at some of the best, most realistic, most brutal depictions of war in the history of entertainment.

Wars on Screen

From classics like Saving Private Ryan to newer entries like Dunkirk and 1917, this list ranks the <a href="/crowdranked-list/the-best-movies-of-all-time?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">best movies</a> about war, battles, and military conflicts. These films recreate some of the most <a href="/list/most-important-historical-events-of-the-20th-century/mwahahahaha?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">significant events</a> in world history from a variety of perspectives and with a variety of purposes and intentions. Some top war films attempt to recreate as realistically as possible the events they depict, either from an omniscient perspective permitted by historical study or from the point of view of the soldiers and civilians involved in the conflict itself. Ridley Scott&#39;s Black Hawk Down, for example, was both praised in its time and heavily criticized for bringing a &quot;you are there&quot; sense of realism - and little outside or cultural perspective - to a recreation of the Battle of Mogadishu. The best war movies of all time differ widely in their handling of the subject matter, but they all strike a chord with viewers now and in the time when they came out.

Some of the <a href="/list/best-war-movies-on-netflix/reference">greatest war films</a> use <a href="/list/historical-movies-made-before-event-ended/melissa-sartore" target="_blank">war as a backdrop</a> to look at larger issues - such as man&#39;s inhumanity to man or the crippling impact of post-traumatic stress - or just as a meditation on war itself. Still other films like Glory and Band of Brothers&nbsp;examine the personal drama of a few individuals, and mine it for larger insights about the meaning of war and the impact that violence has on individual human lives.

Finally, some war films - particularly those made during the classic Hollywood era - are simply adventure films with war providing a compelling setting and situation. The Great Escape, for example, remains a classic not because of its grand ideas about the nature of war, but because it is a ceaselessly entertaining spectacle. No matter what type of film, there&#39;s no denying that these are certainly the best war movies ever.

Vote up your favorite war films to move them up the list, and if <a href="/list/the-ultimate-favorites-list/stevo200?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">your favorites</a> are not yet represented, make your own version of the list and add them!

What are the best recent action movies? Now is your chance to decide. There are a lot of modern action films to choose from. Action films have been wowing audiences&nbsp;for a long time, but they are currently more popular than ever. Advancements in computer technology&nbsp;-&nbsp;such as the ability to digitally erase safety wires - has allowed for the design and execution of never-before-possible stunts. New cinematography techniques and special camera equipment&nbsp;allow those stunts to be photographed as never before. In short, the best new action films make you feel as though you&#39;re participating in the danger right alongside the characters onscreen.

It also helps that several actors have shown a willingness to do their own stunt work, which provides the movies with an extra dose of realism. That sort of devotion gives them an extra edge of excitement.&nbsp;

This list of top films for date night includes a wide variety of different kinds of films that will hopefully make for an excellent evening of snuggling and discussion. Many of these films are some of the <a href="/list/best-romantic-comedies-of-all-time/all-genre-movies-lists" target="_blank">best romantic comedies of all time</a>.

Why? Because not everybody likes Hollywood rom-coms. Sometimes you want to dig a little deeper. Good date night movie ideas can spur some interesting discussion and, in the case of horror movies, can bring you two much closer - literally.

One caveat with the date night movie choices: Please, unless you are absolutely certain your sweetie loves period movies, do not, repeat, do not make them suffer through long, sweepingly epic films like The English Patient.&nbsp;Yes, the movie is romantic but trust us, stick with the lighter fare. The same goes for other <a href="/crowdranked-list/all-epic-movies-or-list-of-epic-movies" target="_blank">great epic movies</a> like the Lord of the Rings&nbsp;trilogy. It&#39;s fine if your date is a huge fan, but if not? Bad idea. Also, beware the <a href="/crowdranked-list/the-biggest-tearjerkers-ever-made" target="_blank">tearjerker movies</a>.

Teen Movies

Teen movies are a longtime staple of many viewers&#39; cinematic diet, but the best new <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-teen-movies-of-all-time/all-genre-movies-lists" target="_blank">teen films</a> really raise the bar. The genre first gained a measure of&nbsp;popularity in the early 1980s, with a string of raunchy <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-teen-comedy-movies/ranker-film" target="_blank">teen comedies</a>, many of which centered around teenagers going on spring break or having some other kind of escapade. Hardbodies and Porky&#39;s&nbsp;are just two examples from that era.&nbsp;These&nbsp;were&nbsp;exploitation flicks, usually telling stories about young men looking to &quot;get lucky&quot; with their beautiful classmates. John Hughes turned the tide with a string of smart, sensitive teen stories that began with 1984&#39;s Sixteen Candles and also included The Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller&#39;s Day Off, Pretty in Pink, and Some Kind of Wonderful. Suddenly, it was proven that real teenagers didn&#39;t want to see an exaggerated version of themselves; they wanted honest stories they could relate to.

The best new teen films carry on that tradition, and even expand it. Current movies like The Edge of Seventeen, Eighth Grade, and Love, Simon all speak to what it&#39;s like to be an adolescent in modern times. Of course, there are genre films centered around -- and geared toward -- teens, as well. Some of them manage to offer insights, despite telling stories steeped in fantasy.&nbsp;
