Re: The Most Overlooked Movie

I don't really know if it is overlooked or not, but I never really heard much about Donnie Darko until I rented it one day, great movie. I know it has it's circle of fans who think it is a classic, but never heard much on a mainstream level.

Ahh, my fave movie of all time. Watch it every week or so. Love it!

Re: The Most Overlooked Movie

a great movie is welcome to collinwood. it has William H. Macy, George clooney, Luis Guzmán and a bunch more. It is a great flick, funny as hell. If you havent seen it, and many havent, it is worth a rent.

Leon: The Professional is a lot better then the American Cut of the film.

My Life is a great movie and yes it got very dusty in my living room when I watched it.

Re: The Most Overlooked Movie

The epitome of this topic is the movie The Boondock Saints.

That's just cause of the timing with Columbine. Everyone and their mother loves that movie now. Though I went to college just outside of Boston, so that might explain the cult like following of the movie.



One of my fav's that people rarely mention is A Time To Kill with Sammy L. Jackson and Matthew McConaughey. Good flick. Plus a very overlooked supporting cast.

- Ashley Judd
- Sandra Bullock
- Donald Sutherland
- Kiefer Sutherland
- Kevin Spacey
- Oliver Platt
- Charles S. Dutton

Re: The Most Overlooked Movie

I also forgot The Iron Giant. That's a rather huge overlooked movie since parents will have their kids watch every Disney movie and their crappy straight-to-video sequels multiple times, but few watch The Iron Giant in comparison.

I think it's the best animated film since Beauty & the Beast.
