Post an Underrated Movie

Was definitely an interesting 70s time capsule. Back then you had a lot of these fairly low budget movies that could be carried almost entirely on the shoulders of (fairly) young and hungry actors and still make an impact (Davison in Short Eyes, Paul Winfield in Sounder, William Devane in Rolling Thunder, Harvey Keitel in Fingers and Mean Streets, Carol Kane in Hester Street, so on).

100% agree. Things are too corporate these days. By the way, you can watch Short Eyes for free if you have Amazon Prime.

Man On Fire (2004)

39% on RT deserves atleast a 70% imo

[Stranger Come Knocking]

I dont have javascript on my browser, whats the name of the movie?

Hearts and Armour or Paladini in Italy

 

[splendica]

House of the Devil 87% RT

This Is The End 83% RT

Cabin in the Woods 91% RT

A movie has to have mediocre or bad reviews to be underrated

These movies all have good reviews that almost perfectly match up with the quality of the movie

Meh, most people have never even heard of House of the Devil.

Technically you're right I guess. I guess I was understanding this thread to be more about underappreciated or undertalked about movies. Someone earlier put Mel Gibson's movie Apocalypto which I'm pretty sure got good reviews.

It feels like you're being the internet police in here.

I'll go back and edit my OP in this thread to

Secret Window - rated like crap, one of the GOAT movies

Cabin Fever (2002) - much better than the rating

Ravenous - also much better than the rating.

Great movie, permanently ruined Cameron Diaz for me though. She nailed that role too well.

Lol agreed. A lot of people hate on the film but I liked it quite a bit. It was unique anyway

I love cabin fever. It's such a bizarre film. I love the cop

I liked the ninja freak kid too.

Yeah it was just great. Especially the first time around it kept me guessing what was going to happe next - my favorite thing in a movie.

 

[splendica]

Going to add The Visit as well. Great, scary ride IMO.

Josh Hartnett, Woody Harrelson, Ron Perlman, Kevin McKidd, Demi Moore, Jordi Molla, and Gakt.

Megamind <--- good movie but isn't as popular as it should be. i really think it's hilarious
Hot Tub Time Machine <--- same reasoning as above ^^
Star Wars Rogue One <--- rarely mentioned as one of the best star wars films, but I think it really is a good movie.

Great picks SW Rouge one I haven't seen yet.

 

[CodeBreaker]

Was going to say this. Awesome movie imo.

definition of UNDERRATED

 

[I Am Legion]

I, Robot was better than critics said. And I don’t even like Will Smith, but that was a cool flick.

 

[splendica]

13 Sins was better than the critics said. One of the better of the last few years.

Lol I forgot about him. Pancakes! And the guy with the rifle lol

 

[Crash Lance]

I love Megamind, Event Horizon, and Superbad.

I think that Last Action Hero was underrated. Last Action Hero was released around the same time as Jurassic Park was so you know that it was always going to have a tough time.
