While most of us know Liam Neeson as the badass dad who does whatever it takes to save his daughter in the now-iconic action flick "Taken," the British heartthrob has starred in more than 150 projects, some of which are far more exciting than his most popular work.

Yes, almost everyone knows that Neeson played the titular role in "Schindler's List," but most of his best dramatic work remains a mystery to even the actor's biggest fans.

Here are the 10 most underrated Liam Neeson movies, in order:

Yes, when Neeson first started out, he was a pretty serious dramatic actor, frequently nominated for awards and working with some of the most respected directors around. Of course, movies like "Michael Collins" and "Kinsey" were inevitably overshadowed by bigger blockbusters, but the lack of attention these great movies still get is quite sad.

However, Neeson has managed to deliver great performances even after becoming an unlikely action star, with films like "The Commuter" and "The Walk Among the Tombstones" being the best examples of this.

Unlike other older action stars, Neeson never allowed himself to work in B-movies, and by this point had been giving great performances for decades, even if some of them were a bit underrated.
