Favorite But Underrated Movies (1 Viewer)

On the Kevin Smith tip... the movie “Tusk” a comedy/horror was pretty... pretty... pretty good.

Hard to find, but very different and good.

The follow up, Yoga Hosers, was a steaming turd though.

Idiocracy.

The most underrated documentary of all time.

Clue

Clue is my favorite movie of all time. I hope they never remake it and there is never a Clue II.

Just wanted to thank those that wrote about Sunshine. I’d never heard of it and SCIFI is my favorite genre. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie!

 

[St. PJ]

The Life of David Gale
In The Bedroom
Bug
Arlington Road
Revolutionary Road
Falling Down

I agree it’s a great movie except the last 20-30 minutes

Up until then the only “villain” was good intentions gone wrong

It was refreshing. They should have stuck with that

Admiral: Roaring Currents

The Thieves

 

[GeauxWhoDats]

Soggy Bottom USA and Sooner the Farting Dog.

I agree. Didn’t enjoy the last act myself either, but very much enjoyed the first 2/3.

Stunt Man - Peter O’Toole

Duel - Steven Spielberg’s first hit movie. Never mentioned when his films are discussed

It’s no Raiders or Jurassic Park or Jaws but it absolutely holds up

Network, but it isn't underrated.
Just watched Frantic, Roman Polanski film with Harrison Ford. It was really good.
If you can find a good copy, Cary Grant's "His Girl Friday"
While sticking with the oldies, Arsenic and Old Lace, It happened one night, Easter Parade, Holiday Inn, Donovan's Reef, and Harvey are all good too.

Real Men

Oh...man...I forgot about that one...what a classic.
