I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s “underrated”, Critics spoke very highly of this film and both Ben Foster and Thomasin McKenzie are PHENOMENAL. But it isn’t a very well known film. Give me thoughts if you’ve seen it!

Watching both of "Tilda" and "Tom" are living the same strange nighttime stillness was like insanely beautiful ! and the soft way of story telling inside this film with the conversation making me think what kind of lost beauty is this ? this is a work when calm nights getting into the heart of rock machines. you guys should watch this gem that was directed by (Jim Jarmusch) . I've read that it hasn't achieved widespread popularity because it's slow and predictable for those immersed in the world of vampire tales. But it's not a work to abandon because of these two factors; it has a certain aura that draws you in, making you want to think about it again and again.

The Dreadful is a slowburn old-era "horror" flick which leans heavy into the atmosphere.

If I had looked this film up and saw reviews before watching I wouldnt even have bothered, but honestly Im glad I did.

Decent acting, great camera work and nature shots, and a story that is simple, yet haunting. I dont I understand the hate and low reviews this movie got. If I'm being honest I liked it way more than "The Green Knight"

Directorial debute by Hampton Fancher who wrote Blade Runner and it's sequel Blad Runner 2049. I always found this film genius in the way it captures how a too far gone sociopath perceives themselves. Vann genuinely believes he's helping his victims. I believe this premise is lost on the bulk of viewers and ppl are left confused bc it does not hold your hand through the journey. You have to have a smidgen of understanding into the head of a madman to really fully grasp that and that eludes viewers to point of them simply not caring

Underrated gem from nearly four decades ago, arguably a Schwarzenegger vehicle and amazing some of the names involved in this project:

The one and only Walter Hill (story, script, production, direction). EPs Mario Kassar and Andrew Vajna (AKA Carolco). And co-stars Jim Belushi in one of his better performances, an early Gina Gershon in a prominent role and the great Peter Boyle.

Restored for 4K a few years ago by Studiocanal (who own Carolco's library).

Loved the Russian elements for a Hollywood mainstream film. The opening scene and the action and violence was also memorable. Plus Chicago and a rare one not involving Andrew Davis or Ron Dean & Co.

A neo-noir thriller that follows Paul Walker as a low-level mobster who must dispose of a gun used in a mob hit. The gun gets stolen in the process and chaos ensues.

This is such a well paced thriller with some genuinely creepy moments especially with Vera Farmiga’s character confronting the child predators.

What are your thoughts on this movie?

An underrated film about looking back with feelings of regret and nostalgia. It also features the best soundtrack ever in a film IMO

The Edge is about a billionaire and a photographer who get stranded in the wilderness after a plane crash and must work together to survive while being hunted by a grizzly bear.

Absolutely love this treasure of a movie. Great story. Satisfying ending.

This scene is pure cinema GOLD:

This movie is absolutely hilarious and no one ever brings it up other than me and one of my friends lol. I've rewatched it countless times. The cast is great and Artie Lange delivers some side splitting lines for sure. Roll up before you watch this for an even better time.

I’m a hockey fan and didn’t want to like this movie as I thought it would glamorize hockey fights. But I was pleasantly surprised that it actually paints a sympathetic portrait of these so-called “goons” of the NHL. Sean William Scott does a great job as a convincing enforcer and the story and direction really do connect emotionally. This one ranks up there with Mystery, Alaska and Miracle for me as solid hockey films. Definitely underrated and I would say even ignored.

A profound and strange emotional experience occurs when you become engrossed in the story of the film (Nell) directed by (Michael Apted).

The reason this film is a great choice for you is its unique human story, where familiar and isolated language intertwine. It also invites you to contemplate the wonders of "meaning" as a concept, preceding "words" as translations of ideas.

It highlights the fact that our world is alive and vibrant with miracles and beauty because of the meanings and reflections we hold within, not just because of words and ideas.

It also emphasizes the importance of respecting the language of silence and observing its expressions. We should be proactive in understanding people's behaviors, voices, feelings, body language, and even their eyes.

BTW (this paragraph giving a reason of why it's underrated) We all have diverse and sometimes similar stories on this earth, but what distinguishes us is how we engage with our own meanings. What sets us apart is how we connect with the beauty of life. Is our connection to breathtaking scenery and the human spirit enough to truly call us authentic souls? This is what we should consider before and after watching (Nell)

Despite all that has been said ؛ the movie is underrated ; because its ratings do not exceed 6.5/10, which I see as a failure to appreciate the rare aesthetic and narrative nuances. After such a dramatic and dazzling performance, I expected it to receive at least an 8.
Returning to my impression of the story, it suffices for me to summarize my experience in this simple statement: you will not be the same after watching it. The work is wonderful, with a profound message and a pleasant atmosphere.

Edit : don't take negative comments on serious , they think it's funny to make jokes in the wrong time. and they didn't get the movie.

One of the most criminally underrated movie of all time.

So many great things about this movie. From a great Woody Harrelson role to a rich cast of people with special abilities telling a stellar story, Champions did not get its due. I wonder if it made some people uncomfortable? I found it so refreshing. A true underdog story that combines humor and heart. Definitely underrated at the box office and by critics.

One of Robin Williams underrated movies (he has A lot) in the supporting cast we've Giovanni Ribisi and Woody Harrelson

Like A lot of Robin's movies in his later years it's A black comedy with A good balance between the black and comedy lol

And the intro had A decent soundtrack with the underrated song (This Town) by Eels from the 90s

Out of the Furnace tells the story of blue-collar steelworker, Russell Baze (Bale), whose life takes a dark turn when his troubled younger brother becomes involved in a brutal criminal underworld, leading him down a path of violence and revenge.

An absolute masterpiece of a film. Seen it countless times and never gets old.

Bale. Harrelson. Dafoe. Cmon now

Easily my top 10 if not 5.

The Head Hunter (2018)

It's a low budget film that manages to have a solid, even if basic plot that was so well executed it's still pops up in my mind after many years.

Fantasy genre, the world is full of monsters, villages outside the city walls are often attacked. A man who has lost it all makes it his mission to hunt and kill these threats.
