Your favorite underrated/less remembered movie

[mego73]

One of my favorite underrated movies is a Executive Decision

Executive Decision (1996)

I have it on DVD and when it is on TV and I stumble on to it, it keeps me watching even though I know how it comes out.

Like any movie like this, it's a bit far fetched but I'll tell you, due to 9/11 it's a bit less far fetched then it was when I first saw it in the theater in 1996.

But passing similarities to future real events aside, this is just a good thriller with some great moments and with another great Jerry Goldsmith score. Plus it has Kurt Russell, which always helps.


Spoiler space for those that haven't seen it yet.









This movie generated a bit of buzz because lots of people that went to see it, didn't know that top billed Steven Segall gets killed off 40 minutes into the movie (with a pretty cool hero's death). I didn't know and it sure surprised me.

The first one that comes to mind is Alpha Dog.

"They Call me Bruce" (1982)

One of the funniest movies ever! I watched it recently after so many years and laughed even harder than I did when I was younger cause now I understand the jokes. Yes it campy and silly but I like it. Very underated comedy.
Anyone else remember this movie?

Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. I know the story kinda stinks, and Jude Law wasnt much of a choice to be a heroic character, but I love this film nonetheless. It has a live action Fliescher Cartoon look to it that I think was perfect for the film. Those flying/walking robots, ray guns, cooky scientists...everything was right up my alley!

Gotta be Moontrap

I can't believe how many people have never seen it.

It's so obscure, it still has never been released on DVD

Running Scared with Paul Walker ..., probably the Best Movie He's ever Done ...

Reign of Fire with Christian Bale & Mathew Mcconaughey

Domino with Keira Knightley & Mickey Rourke

I remember seeing Executive Decision at the Movie Theater.... I remember going Just because it WAS Segal..., He was cool then,.. & I remember for the most part liking his flicks,.. they Advertised the crap outta that Movie,..with his Face & Name, then to see what Happen,.. it was probably 1 of the Biggest What The F's I remember.

Over The Edge! 1979- Matt Dillon

Way underrated in my opinion. Many of us could likely relate to this movie. True story too!

My favorite Steven Seagal movie, because he dies

One of my all time favourite comedies has to be " blame it on the rio", with a very young Demi Moore.

HAW! AWESOME film! The sequel wasn't bad either.

My favourite film of all time is pretty underrated; "Rock and Rule."
