Underrated Movies???

The Day After Tomorrow.

The Manchurian Candidate.

Gladiator.

LadyHawke.

K-Pax.

There's many, but definitely Eyes Wide Shut. I'm glad others here have mentioned it. I love that movie. It's a true masterpiece. Everything from the music, colors, camera work, acting, the timing, everything is perfect. Kubrick's best work, next to The Shining.

There's this indie film called FUN with Alicia Witt that is amazing. The performances with the two main young actresses is just so fascinating to watch.

Suspiria by Dario Argento. A Horror Masterpiece!

Heat by Michael Mann. The best police drama/action movie. I mean cmon, the street shoot out is worth the admission alone!

But I'm a Cheerleader. haha sorry, I just love that movie. Very funny.

Natural Born Killers! . . . .

The Contender. Politics at it's finest. Powerful stuff.

Mulholland Dr. - David Lynch, need I say more?

There's more...I just can't think right now.

You know I wanted to like that movie...I really did.

But I couldn't get past the thought that it's what I'd expect K-Mart to name it's own-brand tampons

Dude, Where's My Car?

The reply value this thing has is insane. I once saw it four times in one day. Never tired. It's such a great movie, it can never fail.

If you haven't seen it you're missing out on a piece of heaven.

Dario Argento is a movie God...

That movie has been on my must-watch list for so long, I could cry. I've had an Ebay alert on it for over 150 days, and still nothing....

Boy, this is true. Mullholland Dr. is such a powerful movie. It is so exquisitely textured and layered that you can watch it a million times and still find gems you never noticed before. I must admit that I still don't get everything, but man, when I read the reviews, I have to wonder if anyone ever really watches a movie. Mulholland Dr. is definitely Lynch's master opus.
