you are mostly correct. lots of affectation you could see. there are a bunch of overrated actors/actresses. katherine hepburn is another.
however, a few parts he really owned and was believable in:
i.e. godfather, and the movie where he played a fence and deniro played a theif.
and then there are many under-rated actors/actresses:
dennis franz comes to mind.
and last night i just saw this gal natalie portman play the orphan with this italian hitman, and she must have been only 11 or 12, and the sophistication of her performance blew me away.
