  • Don't be a menace to south central while drinking your juice in the hood, this lead to the Scream films and a decline in their film quality.

    Both great shouts too - Event Horizon especially. In the same vein, 'Sunshine' by Danny Boyle is brilliant too, and has one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard. One more shout - 'Moon' with Sam Rockwell. Brilliant.

    Best soundtrack has to be for Drive, A film I loved but very marmite with most others

    Moon is fantastic, directed by Duncan Jones (formally known as Zowie Bowie)

    Would hardly call Moon underrated, not very well known yes but that's not the same thing at all.

    This isn't a thread of underrated films!! It's a thread of random films that people like (that are mentionable if they haven't been mentioned on this thread before) !! Don't let the title mislead you!

    "Sex lives of the potato men"... 
  • I watched the Truman Show again today, brilliant film.

    I've said that very same thing above on more than two other choices! It's just that most people I know who've seen 'Moon' were a bit 'meh' about it. I think it's brilliant, but that doesn't seem to be the consensus amongst most people I know - I guess that makes this entire list completely subjective based on your peers and what they 'rate'.

    I love Hope & Glory.

    A great story of a kid growing up in London during the Blitz.

    Winter in Wartime. 
  • Is 'Things to do in Denver...' underrated? I don't know anyone who thinks its underrated - and most people I know have seen it as well, so it's not 'little seen' in my experience. Its a great film in any case. I'll give two examples - The Village and Lady In The Water. Absolutely love both of them - superb bits of filmmaking savaged by the critics because they were expecting another Sixth Sense. In fact, Lady In The Water has an arsehole film critic in it, obviously there to make a jibe at Shyamalan's critics. He gets killed in it :)
    His films are absolute shite.  There were peals of laughter round the cinema when I saw the Village, although having paid for a ticket and wasted two hours I wasn't quite as amused.

    Can Switchblade count as underrated?  Uh-hu.
  • Someone mentioned Defiance earlier and some people disagreed. I've just finished watching it on iPlayer and thought it was really really good!

    Defiance was atrocious.  Very little of the moral quandries needed to even attempt to survive post Barbarossa.  Hollywood should leave the Russian front alone.

    I thought Rutger Hauer was great in that, possibly underrated

    'Dear America: Letters Home From Viet Nam'. Poingnant and tragic, this film says more about the real face of war than any Hollywood production ever could.
