Favorite "Underrated" Movies

[BrAinPaiNt]

12 Monkeys is a great movie. Pitt is fantastic in it.

If you have not seen True Romance...get it, don't let the title fool you.

Quentin wrote it but sold the rights to help finance Resevoir Dogs...IMO I think True Romance is better.

Plus Brad Pitt plays a character named Floyd that is funny.

Brad Pitt
Dennis Hopper
Christian Slater (one of the few times he did a good job)
James Gandolfini
Christopher Walkins
Tom Sizemore
Bronson Pinchot (plays a funny role)
Gary Oldman does a great job in a limited role.

Just a good action movie.

Brad Pitt stole that movie big time.

Yeah when Hopper was telling Walkins about his Sicilian background when he just knew what was going to happen to him...Classic.

That's another great movie. I always liked Christian Slater too, so I saw that one early on.

Two great scenes in that movie are when Clarence (Slater) confronts the pimp Drexel played by Oldman... Oldman has some classic lines in that scene (that I probably can't quote here).

The other is when the mob thug, played by a young Gandolfini, is beating the hell out of Alabama. The dialogue in that scene is vintage Tarantino.

I really don't care for cage that much, if the guy grew his hair longer and had a beard he would look like one of those cavemen on the insurance commercials lol.

However National Treasure was a pretty good movie.

That so condesending

Love the movie...plus Val Kilmer plays the part of Elvis in the movie.

Absolute sacrilege!

Absolute sacrilege!

R.Dogs is good...but it is nowhere as good as many make it out to be.

To me it is the weakest of Q's movies.

Asolutely, without a doubt, my favorite movie. Great Call.

I'll strongly second Shaun of the Dead as well.

Some of my other favorites:

Sin City
Kill Bill and Kill Bill volume 2(I love Tarantino soundtracks)
The Princess Bride
Tombstone
Hero (High Def is a must for this one though)
The Man With No Name trilogy (Fi****l of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, The good, The Bad, The Ugly)
The Trinity Series (They Call Me Trinity, Trinity is Still My Name, Boot Hill)
The Big Lebowski
Young Guns
Tin Cup
Conan the Barbarian
Conan the Destroyer
The Warriors
Mad Max and Road Warrior
Anything with Tom Hanks
Almost Anything with Will Smith

I generally like Kevin Smith flicks, but Clerks wasn't on of them.

Nicholas Cage can lick the sweatiest part of my taint, except for Raising Arizona and National Treasure (and he still sucks in that too.)

Epic dramas like Braveheart and Saving Private Ryan always work too.

God you're killing me! It's my favourite Tarantino. Steve Buscemi alone makes it worth the price of admission. Mix in Mr. Blonde, Tim Roth, Harvey Keitel and some wicked tunes and you have an all-time classic.

I agree it's better than True Romance...But they both have their strong points.

I HATE THIS SCENE! He better KILL me...Or I WILL Kill Him!

I will take Pulp Fiction and either Kill Bill movie over RD.

Heck I like Sin city better as well and it just has a touch of Q to it.

 

[Danny White]

Just watched Walk the Line last night. What a great movie!

Joaquin Phoenix was fantastic in it, and both he and Reese Witherspoon did an amazing job with the singing.

Just a really solid movie.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. Reservoir Dogs would be on a desert island with me.

 

[StevenOtero]

Ahh let the opinions fly.

If I was on a desert island and had to pick 10 dvds (and somehow how the professors ability to keep a dvd and tv running using coconut milk lol) RD would not be one of those ten movies.

 

[jackrussell]

Being There.....Peter Sellers

I love satire.....

You know I can't resist this. 10 Desert Island DVDs:

Reservoir Dogs; Godfather (1&2); Memento; Trees Lounge; Star Wars & The Empire Strikes Back; The Shining; Pulp Fiction; Goodfellas

It's hard to choose ten, but I'd be pretty contented with that lot.
