that's definitely one of my favourite movies of all time.. and seriously underrated..

Titanic (1953) and A Night to Remember (1958)

 

[crazyhobo]

I really don't get this thread. All (most) of these films are considered great by everyone who watches them, so how are they underrated?

 

[Lundy]

Maybe not so much "underrated", as overshadowed by all the garbage popcorn flicks choking up mainstream cinema

Yeah, that makes more sense.

 

[snobby airlines]

mullholland drive is one twisted movie.

and yeah shaolin soccer, ive seen bits of it, we got it on vcd, funny stuff i swear

Bounce, with Gwyneth Paltrow and Ben Affleck wasn't really a hit movie, but I saw it yesterday and I thought it was a good movie. An interesting storyline.

I thought that The Cell with JLo was a great visual feast with a stimulating plot that was not apraised to the standard of its screen-play! I loved the visuals and the idea of a dream-reality.. hmmm quite camp really! hehe.. Also I loved the movie X-men 2 but i dont know if it was popular. ???
I am going to Buenos Aires in about 5 more hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vanilla Sky was on the UK's top 10 Worst Movies List, but i'm not sure if I agree. It was a bit confusing, but I thought it wasn't a bad movie.

Titanic was number 1

i watched adaptation yesterday... it was AWESOME!..
other underrated movies
donnie darko
fight club
pink floyd : the wall
citizen kane
hmm theres prolly more
i thought mulholland drive was crazy, it was TOO twisted, i like weird movies, but that went overboard i think

 

[Lundy]

how can citizen kane be on an underrated list??? It has frequently been voted the best movie of all time

 

[Mojoman]

yeah but i meant underrated for the youth, people think it would be crap because it is old and black and white... i did, until i saw it

 

[White Rabbit]

Memento was by far, the best movie I've ever seen.

I reckon the Sum of Us was pretty damn good too.

Romper Stomper, but that did get a bit of publicity. It was still one fucking best movies ever.

 

[Lundy]

Memento is another one that I would list as underseen rather than underrated. It was too unconventional for the mainstream.
That being said, it's a great movie

 

[White Rabbit]

Yeah, I'd agree with that. It was generally underseen.

It was unconventional, but bloody genuis at the same time. One of the few movies that genuinlly had so many twists that you had no idea what was gonna happen, or how it was going to end.

 

[crazyhobo]

Or begin as the case may be.

I rented Donnie Darko today, i'm going to see what the "hype" is about.

vanilla sky deserves to be on the worst movies list, its all bullshit

I saw Donnie Darko last night (or rather, this morning) and it wasn't a bad film.
