Underrated movies
 

List' em.

Eurotrip-Way better than Road trip IMO. Funny all the way through.

Daredevil-Not the greatest movie out there, but it's better than people give it credit for, I think.

Krull-Rep for anyone who even knows what the hell this is.

Haha, my bro managed to set up his computer like dude in the movie so when he gets an e-mail it goes "Mail, Mutha Fucka".

To me "Slingblade" is terribly underated IMO.

I think everyone agrees that slingblade is pretty good, though.

American Psycho

and yeah i think everybody agrees slingblade is good

The Notebook

UHF. The critics I read were terrible, but I enjoyed it.

Jersey Girl: Not the best movie, but better then what people will think. Just cause it wasn't normal Kevin Smith movie and had Ben and Jennifer Lopez in it.

Street Fighter The LA Movie: I liked it.

Ishtar - one of the biggest flops in movie history but it was way ahead of it's time. It's hilarious

Starship Troopers.

Almost every aspect of this movie is terrible yet I still really enjoy watching it.

Co-ed showers

Kevin Sorbo acting like a true barbarian. Arnold couldn't have done it better.

As for me...the Puppet Master Seris. GO LITTLE PUPPETS!

Cable Guy is underrated, IMO.

:love:

I love "A Night at the Roxbury" too. :$

I agree to that, also reminds me of The Truman Show. I really enjoy watching that movie just to spot little clues along the way. I got most of them now though.

Jersey Girl was a-fucking-mazing.

Same thing with Spanglish.

I hate Truman Show. Thought it was really gay. Probably not bad by any means I just hated it. How much of a dumbass do you have to be? I know its a movie but the concept is pretty wtf.

The Outsiders
200 Cigarettes
Beautiful Girls
Eddie and The Cruisers II (bad acting but still a good flick IMO)

Wonderland

Jersey Girl and Spanglish both sucked dick. Fuck Ben Affleck - they didn't even give George Carlin any good lines. Spanglish was alright, I mean, Sandler did a great job, but his wife was fucking horrible and annoying throughout - not to mention there wasn't even a true ending. It was a major, major, major step down from As Good As It Gets for Mel Brooks.

Underrated movies:

The Karate Kid
Detroit Rock City (GREAT FUCKING MOVIE)
Dirty Work
Good Burger

Eyes Wide Shut
Vanilla Sky
Wonderland
Sexy Beast
Spartan
The Thin Red Line
Layer Cake
Dogville
The Frighteners
L.A. Confidential
Tombstone
Dirty Work
Daredevil
Spy Game

If your on Drugs

Rocky 4

:love:

The Rocketeer.

I do too. :love:

How can L.A. Confidential possibly be underrated?

lol. I know. It's just a movie that I don't think gets enough credit. Sure when it came out people talked about it but now, nothing. Just my experience from working in a video store and recommending it to people, and surprisgingly they have never even heard of it. Makes me angry.

Plus, the fact that Titanic beat it out for Best Picture when L.A. was clearly the better film, IMO.

Yeah but Titanic was gonna win no matter what.

Still though it won somethinbg like 67 various awards the year it came out. Still hard to put it in a list of under-appreicated movies.

I took the topic to be underrated by the general movie going public and not so much critics and voters etc. I dunno. I know what you're saying.

Yeah fair enough, the term underrated is highly subjective anyway.

I concur. This topic actually reminded me of the top 20 most OVERRATED movies list recently published in Premiere magazine. Clearly a list composed simply for amusement and to spark some sort of discussion, simply by some of the movies on it. I actually agree with some, others not. Totally subjective.

The Island and The Butterfly Effect were rather harshly pooh-poohed for my liking. Despite their plotholes and occasional shocking acting, there was much to admire in both films.

Wrong. "Krull"

Not "Kull the Conquerer"

You suck, just for remembering that Kevin Sorbo was in anything but cheesy TV shows.

Krull was the "Dungeons and Dragons" movie. Ken Marshall (like he's been in anything else) played Prince Colwyn. Has one of the coolest/weirdest weapons in ANY movie: the five-bladed "light up" sword.

Empire Records. :'(

Eight Legged Freaks
Kung Pow Enter the Fist
Joy Ride

Annihilation of Fish - underrated 'cause...it was never released in theaters or on video. Got to see a print at the Central Michigan International Film Festival. Totally worth it if you can find it. James Earl Jones = greatness

A Knight's Tale - the most fun movie I've seen in the last five years. Seriously.

The Recruit - a little better known (and more recent), but a good spy/secret agent flick with some decent characters.

Three O'Clock High - I had never even heard of this until a friend showed it to me. Awesome '80s teen movie. Think "High Noon" meets "The Breakfast Club."

Oh, and love for Kapoutman choosing "UHF." I adore that movie. Set aside the fact that I'm a Weird Al mark for a second, it's still worth it because Michael Richards was so incredibly funny. I'm still waiting for a network to pick up "Conan The Librarian."

Comeing this fall to Fox.
