re: Underrated movies that you think are great

The Majestic

Manhunter (with Brian Cox as the original Hannibal Lecter)

One of my favorites. Have watched it many times.

Disorganized Crime
- Lou diamond Phillips , Corbin Bernsen, Ed O’Neil, Fred Gwynne (very underrated comedy crime caper where Al Bundy is a cop chasing wrong guy for crimes the guys crew are committing)

Hero
-Dustin Hoffman , Geena Davis, Andy Garcia, Chevy Chase
Dustin is a lowlife who saves people from an airplane crash and Andy Garcia is homeless man who gets credit for rescue. Very funny and Hoffman is terrific as always.

Lots of mentions of The Last Boy Scout, which is great. It was one of two movies I wore out in the early 90s as a teenager. The other being The Adventures of Ford Fairlane w/ Dice Clay.

I don’t know if “underrated” applies, b/c it has wonderful reviews, but You Can Count On Me is one of my favorite movies and seems like no one has ever seen it. Not a “fun” movie, but so well written and incredibly acted. But it’s one of those hits home movies.

Last two both include Clive Owen. Croupier and I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead

"..Road to Perdition.."
Even though highly regarded, it is still vastly underrated. I think that this is one of the best movies of the last 30-40 years. It has the best score of any movie that I have ever seen.

"Q&A with Nolte, Assante
Miller’s Crossing (My favorite)
Tender Mercies"

... you nailed it, my friend!
Jesus, Tom!

Derailed - 2005

Clive Owen
Jennifer Aniston

Great plot twist.

The Replacements - I loved this movie and if it’s on, it’s still great.

Also, for some reason Hardball with G Baby was great.

Pump Up the Volume 1990 -- seems forgot now.

another

Untamed Heart (1993)

both star Christian Slater

Flash Gordon - 1980

Awesome flick.

That soundtrack will pump you up!
