He plays a wide range of characters in many movies such as,
What's Eating Gilbert Grape ?
The Quick and the Dead
Man in the Iron Mask
The Beach
Titanic
Catch Me if You Can
The Aviator
....to name a few.
Is he under-rated & what movie do you like him in the most ?

I think he's overrated. Johnny Depp was in Gilbert Grape too, and a much better actor. The only thing I liked Leo in was Romeo and Juliet.

Not at all.
I agree with one of the answerers here before me that mentioned he was In, "What's eating Gilbert Grape?" which co-starred Johnny Depp & look where's he at now!
Frankly, Leo needs to break away from that whole, "Titanic" mould. He's been sadly typecast like most Hollywood actors i.e. Julia Roberts will never break away from her label of "America's Sweetheart" as is Meg Ryan.
To date, Leo's best work was, "Catch Me If You Can". "The Aviator", he basically reprise his role there; not much of a stretch.
I don't get what's his deal with dating supermodels exclusively though...

He's good, but I think he's not excellent because his style is recognizable in each movie.
You never get the luxury of forgetting who he is, he is not able to lose himself in the character. It is a conscious playing of a role.
