Will Smith, through decades of work in the industry, has proved that there is no task too tall for him. Often referred to as the box office King or Mr. July due to his consecutive success, Smith, more than an actor, is a chameleon of the stage and screen. He is equally convincing as a hard-working father, as he is a quirky cop, making it a daunting task to pick the best among his roles.

While the audience may struggle in choosing what is Will Smith’s best work much like the Academy that finally decided upon King Richard, the actor has a few in mind. And surprisingly, he does not count his Oscar-nominated performance in Ali as one.

Will Smith revealed while speaking to GQ in 2021 that he believes The Pursuit of Happyness and Men In Black are “almost-perfect” movies. And while opinions may defer, this is not an unpopular one given how The Pursuit of Happyness earned him an Oscar nomination in the Best Actor category while Men In Black is among his highest-earning blockbusters.

In his three-decades-long career in Hollywood, the 54-year-old actor in Hollywood has made a gazillion movies. And while many were blockbuster hits, there are plenty of duds as well. However, not one had a lackluster performance by Smith. This is why there are many underrated Will Smith movies that are just as perfect as the one he picked.

What is the most underrated Will Smith movie?

When it comes to a larger-than-life star such as Will Smith, it seems out of place to use ‘underrated’. However, despite being well acquainted with his movies, and breaking ceilings in terms of box office records, Smith still has a treasure box of unrecognized movies. One of the most applauded among them is the Enemy of the State.

While we love an action extravaganza starring the actor, it is in subtle roles that he hits the ball out of the park, and he does just that in the Ridley Scott directorial. The Oscar winner plays a lawyer who fights nail and tooth to survive after a government agency locks him as a target. Not only is there an element of danger in the movie, but Smith also puts to use his family man front. While it did not make it big at the box office, it remains of his most enthralling movies for die-hard fans.
