Equilibrium and Starship Troopers. Equilibrium because that movie is fuckin' cool, and Starship Troopers because it's just fuckin' funny.

For those who never saw it, rent it! it's a bit like "1984" and a "perfect world" mixed together.
I'm going to have to agree here. It's a shame the movie was very poorly, if at all advertised. I remember seeing ONE tv spot back when it was released and I wanted to go see it; I then went with a friend to see it in the theater and loved it. I thought it was great. Too bad it didn't catch on.

Deep Impact, Equillibrium, Dark City.

Can't really think of any. Most films that I think are "underrated", aren't really underrated at all, they just didn't get the audience that they deserved.

The creators of South Park in a movie they wrote about a mormon breaking into the porn industry. What else needs to be said?

I really liked Butterfly Effect.
Training Day.

I agree with Equilibrium, Hudson Hawk, and Supertroopers. Equilibrium was not quite as good as the Matrix, but better than Reloaded. Hudson Hawk was just a fun movie, I guarantee that they had a blast making that movie. Supertroopers was hilarious. I thought for sure that it would disappoint because my friends raved about it, but It was better than I ever could have imagined it would be. I hope Club Dread is as funny.

How is super troopers underrated?

man, almost everyone I know has seen that movie at least once... I didn't think it was underrated at all... fuckin hilarious

The single most underated movie has got to be "Pump up the Volume"

grayman 05-11-2004 09:18 PM

pdxhicap, are you Christian Slater? :D

Ok, I thought of a film which I think is truly underrated.

Mulholland Drive.

This film is absolutely incredible, yet it seems so many people hate it so much. And its more than just not liking it. It seems some people viciously attack this film and anyone who actually liked it.
Ok, so its not for everyone, and it is quite a "difficult" film, but I don't see the need for people to attack it.

Legends of the Fall, maybe it's just the indian singing at the end, but I really like this movie and don't hear too much about it.

I go to a movie to see a thrilling plot, amazing screenplay and incredible acting. This movie literally had no plot. The director literally said "its an abstract painting in movie form". I can't watch a movie that isn't really a movie.

Meow what is so god dang funny boy? Do I look like a cat to you boy? jumping all nimbley bimbley from tree limb to tree limb? Drinking milk from a saucer?

Also, I think that Billy Madison is very underrated. It is one of the funnist movies ever!

Get off your ass and find that effing dog!

kurtisj 05-16-2004 08:11 PM

the man with one red shoe, featuring tom hanks. or how about....the burbs, also featuring tom hanks. maybe even big. or maybe even joe versus the volcano? both once again featuring tom hanks

Rodney 05-16-2004 08:16 PM

Hudsucker Proxy and Dark City, definitely. To enjoy Hudsucker Proxy, you had to have seen the right movies ('50s movies about the big bad city and big business), and a lot of people haven't. Dark City I actually liked better than the Matrix -- more style, more mysterious.

What else?

Kelly's Heroes, the Clint Eastwood Movie That Time Forget. Really good, cynical movie about war, bureaucracy, and just saying "screw it all." It is the "Office Space" of war movies

UHF, Weird Al's only movie. Damn funny.

From Dusk 'Til Dawn. Yeah, people like it, but I like it better than anything else Tarantino ever wrote or Rodriguez ever directed. Again, damn funny.

guinnessgurl 05-16-2004 11:04 PM

Power of One.....
or any of Kevin Smith's movies :)

striderkevin 05-18-2004 05:40 PM

I'm going to have to go with "The Fifth Element"

this movie blows saving private ryan away, no question, it's a masterpiece, a work of art, except for the fact that john travolta is in it, and george clooney, even though i like him

As soon as i saw this thread title, i thought of TTRL. Its perhaps my favourite film of all times. Though id like to see Mallick's original cut of it, which is a shitload longer.
