[Movies] Great movies that nobody seems to talk about?

[Silmaloke]

Dark City was really awesome, shame it didnt get more attention in its day.

yea thought the same back then gotta watch it again, think that was back in 1999 or sth

haha Dreamcatcher - was that the one with Morgan freeman and the Alien caused Diarrhea :P?

Indeed, Leon the Professional was Awesome, cute story and so much gun action

And Airplane is the funniest movie I've ever seen. Cracks me up each time.

Aww man yeah, that's a great film. Maybe I'll put it up now since I'm bored anyway and don't think the missus has seen it yet!
Brilliant piece of comedy.

Was an easy choice for me, seeing as I'm a big fan of Leslie Nielsen!

The great thing about this movie is that it is entirely made up of great one liners. Every damn piece of dialogue is a en epic quotable piece.

Airplane! is too much of a classic to belong in this thread

The Last of the Mohicans One of my all time favourites, and day-Lewis looks such a dish with long hair!

I think I like to many movies for this. I have certain genres and a movie that falls within that genre I'm pretty much guarenteed to like. And then a movie that falls outside that genre I'm probably going to like too, tbh. Though less consistently.

Probably the big one is rise of the planet of the apes, haven't really seen that mentioned at all since it came out so when I watched it I thought it wasn't going to be good because no one had mentioned it recently but it was great. I bought planet of the apes (remake) because I wanted a sequel to the movie, although I have not seen it yet I think there is room for a movie between those two.

What is Airplane doing in this thread, it's considered a comedy classic...

I really didn't enjoy Children of Men. I can't understand what's so good about it. Everyone raves about how great it is. Same with Oldboy.


I'll go with the OP on this one. Pan's Labyrinth is my #1. Also The Good, The Bad, The Weird, is good if you're into korea movies.

The Good, the Bad, and the Weird is much fun. That said, I'd take Oldboy over it in a heartbeat. Oldboy against I Saw the Devil though, and that's another story.

I'd say of all the movies I have in my top 10 list on a consistent basis, the one that people say they've never heard of is The Legend of 1900. I love it, you may not, that's okay! =)

Ahh "I Saw The Devil" that's a great one!

127 Hours. One of those known films but not one that people will talk about. An excellent film although it's more of a character/situational study that focuses on the efforts of one trapped boy trying to stay alive and keep sane knowing that he is facing deaths door. All the main footage past the first 20 minutes is from his cameras FoV in one spot.

[Tapzer]

The Man from Nowhere, IP man 1 and 2

[Saurnauth]

The Gamers and The Gamers: Dorkness Rising for me. 2 minor films that every tabletop gamer should watch.

Another one no one ever mentions - wonderful film. Way ahead of it's time.

[Amiright]

Didn't read the whole thread, but even if this movie has been mentioned, It deserves to be mentioned again.

Perfume: The Story of a Murderer
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0396171/?ref_=sr_1

One of the best movies I've ever seen.

[Fenixdown]

Idiocracy. A movie a fair portion of the posters on this forum would fit in with quite easily.

Cuz it's got electrolytes.

Not sure if anybody mentioned it but: The Raid:Redemption
freaking awesome action movie

Yes! The action in this movie was incredible. It makes me think back to the Batman Trilogy, while I loved it as well, but the fighting in those movies is always so stiff and goofy and scripted looking. The Raid was so fast paced and insane, I don't know if I'd call it realistic exactly, but just far more exciting. Hard to follow even at times. I guess that's to be expected from an Asian martial arts style action movie.
