It was a flop, it only had a cult audience. It only made about £4m. Plus not many have seen it, but generally those that have love it.

When is that coming out?? Sounds good?

[Deirdre]

I think Changeling never got the recognition it deserved. Angelina Jolie's best acting performance imo.

Filming starts next year so I'd say later in 2010 or maybe in 2011

[MissKittyFantastico]

Starship Troopers definitely! Brilliant film but everyone laughs at me when I say how good I reckon it is!

[setanta]

Another two that I know are pretty silly but can't help liking are The Chronicles of Riddick and the latest Rambo.

Oh, and Serenity is a very underrated sci fi flick.

I thought Serinity was awful lol

[setanta]

Oh Joseph, Serenity is one of my favs of the last few years, but I think it helped that I was a fan of the series beforehand.

Mean Streets is underrated for me, for some reason I really liked it lol

Eh, Starship Troopers anybody? I think it's great fun and a total piss take.

Starship troopers

Amazing Film, the brain bug at the end was pretty lame though he was suppose to be the leader of them all and he is just a massive Blob of ****

the labyrinth

The film with david bowie in, Still love it now, there was a part where david bowier was dancing around and it looked like he had a sock down his pants

Apparently that was all to do with Jennifer Connelly starring opposite him, the dirty fecker!

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Ghost World

Election

[GypsyGoth]

I love this film but no one has seen it

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Oh and the myth of fingerprints!

[setanta]

The Hellboy flicks and the Last Boy Scout are pretty underrated. Very entertaining stuff.

[Rory]

I'd have to say The Orphanage. It's a hidden gem that's really quite good.

Saw that at the cinema!!! An excellent film. I really liked Y Tu mama Tambein too!

[Stu]

The Matrix Trilogy as a whole was massively underrated. The first one became a huge pop culture phenomenon and thus the sequels were in the mainstream but really they were never intended for mainstream consumption. Most people did not bother to understand them. They just wanted to see 'the black fella in the leatehr jacket shootin'.

Not seen the other two for ages. The trilogy could be worth a rewatch

[Enid]

Hah Stu, I was way too young to get The Matrix. The only part I enjoyed was the sex scene in the first film. My god, that was hot.

I should really watch them again, if only for the sex.

The second film? You mean the sex scene with all the plugs and holes?

[setanta]

Nah Stu, the other two were comprised of inane pseudo-psychological ramblings that alienated the audience and elevated the whole enterprise to a level of pomposity that actually made them laughable. Loved the first one and was absolutely appalled by the other two. Found it a chore to watch them.

Y Tu Mama Tambien was good, Alfonso Cuaron is an amazing director. He directed the only Harry Potter I liked and Children of Men.

Ah I love those films, I've got PB and Labyrinth on DVD somewhere.

Without sounding like a Broken record I think Studio Ghibli's films are Excellent but underappreciated outside of film fans. I think Sweeney Todd deserved more praise then it got, the same with Corpse Bride (not as good as NBC yes but still good in it's own right).

Here's some others I can think of:

Let the Right One In
Grindhouse
The Fountain
Trick R Treat
Boogie Nights
Across The Universe
Stardust (Similar to Princess Bride but still good in it's own right)
Rock and Rule (more nostalgia based then anything)

For soem reason I can only really think of more modern films, I'm gonna have to attack my DVD collection for some more inspiration.

Yep, he's quality. Children of Men was so good.
