Most underrated movie!!

"The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou"
Such a weird little movie, but I love every minute of it.

"What About Bob?"
By far the funniest psychiatrist/patient movie I have ever seen. A thousand times better than Analyze This

"Groundhog Day"
Notice a pattern yet?

"Saving Silverman"
A movie despised by critics, but loved by me. Funny stuff.

"25th Hour"
A lesser known Spike Lee film about the last day of freedom before a man is taken away to jail. Great acting, powerful scenes.

"The Battle of Algiers"
One of the most intelligent and objective views on terrorist tactics I have ever seen, set in the Algeria the native Muslims revolt against the French.

"Grosse Point Blank"
Smart, funny, romantic, and action-packed. A movie with everything.

I'll also second thegunner's statement of "City of God." That is without a doubt one of the best films I have ever seen.

No. It is about a group of kids growing up in the favellas of Brazil. Each taking different paths, photography and crime.
 
Hudson Hawk is vastly funnier and more entertaining thatn the false myth around it being awful would allow anyone to believe. And Andie McDowell looks fabulous in it (the only time you'll ever hear me say that about her).
 
First, I gotta say this is a great thread and a lot of people put up some great movies....

I saw references to Evil Dead 1&2- But thus far, no "Army of Darkness"

IMHO this was a classic....

"THIS.....IS MY BOOMSTICK!" LOLOLOL

Yeah i thought so, I guress it's very easy to get the 2 movies mixed up simple by the title. I just realized the name of the Patrick Swayze movie City of Hope, that movie was great also.

I have heard of City of God though and it being a very powerful movie.

i think that "Final Destination" was terribly underrated

it's a suspense-teen movie, i know
but it's very scary, with a great plot and great acting.

another movie for this thread is "True Lies", just because Schwarzeneger is in it, doesn't mean it sucks.
it has awesome action scenes and a nice story.
