Nomination for most underrated movie of all time

[Avenger]

I liked it.

 

[2 True Blues]

I think Sean Penn's genius is recognized.

Yeah, only in recent times though. He was very good in Mystic River. ;-)

 

[Samwise]

I think Sean Penn's genius is recognized.

yeah by Sean Penn in particular.

That movie didnt have one good quality about it.

It wasnt clever, nor was it thrilling or scary.

I remember seeing it in the cinema and everyone was like is that it.

I guess you completely missed the point of it then.

It is a dark satire on consumerism.

 

[Tommy Smith]

After it garnered just two votes in the Greatest of All Time polling, I'm thinking Dr. Strangelove is underrated :crazy:

"Mein Fuhrer! I can walk!"

 

[Misanthrope]

I hadn't seen it until two nights ago, otherwise it certainly would have had my vote. So dark and so witty.

 

[Godz Illa]

I guess you completely missed the point of it then.

He has a knack for that.

Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey is another one

 

[Sugar]

Here's one of my favourite films of all-time. Brilliantly acted, one of the best scores ever and beautifully shot...and yet hardly ever talked about:

Last of the Mohicans.

It was rated it won an Oscar.

For me
Donnie Darko
Blood in Blood out
The Warriors

 

[Ghoulies]

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.

Not only the best movie title I've ever heard, but a top notch flick that didn't get the exposure it deserved.

 

[OVP]

The Hitcher

loved it

You can pick em El D ... great flick. Rutger Hauer is definitely one of the most underrated actors too. But this is his best, no doubt.

 

[OVP]

Was this a Tarantino film???

It was written by Tarantino but directed by Tony Scott.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_romance

The script for Natural Born Killers had been sold when Tarantino was introduced to director Tony Scott. Tarantino was a big fan of Scott's Revenge. Scott read both True Romance and Reservoir Dogs and wanted to direct both, but Tarantino was already set to direct Reservoir Dogs, so Scott took the other. Other than the ending (Clarence was shot dead during the climactic Mexican Standoff in the script) and the ordering of the scenes, Scott's film uses Tarantino's original script.

 

[2 True Blues]

yeah by Sean Penn in particular.

Name one actor that does not possess an ego. ( or atleast is such a good actor they dont let on ) lol...
( Woody ALLEN excluded )............;-):lol:

 

[Misanthrope]

I've always seen Jonny Depp as a fairly humble guy. Matt Damon, too.

 

[OVP]

Another movie thats under-rated is Kalifornia. I couldnt believe Ch 10 played it on TV a week or so ago.

Easily Pitt's best performance. He's a pretty bloody good actor actually, but because he's so good looking, that dickheads out there think he cant act. He is a very good actor. This movie dissolves all doubt

[Cliffhanger]

I haven't watched that since I was a kid, but from what I remember it was f**king awesome.

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

I've just seen a post in this thread that says The Big Lebowski is overrated.

Great film, f**king awesome film.
