I watched the movie Bait, with Jamie Fox, today. I think its a great movie but noone ever really talks about it.


Others?

American History X

That is an awesome movie. If you guys haven't seen it yet, it's well worth the time. Ed Norton Jr. is great in that show.

i'd call this underseen, not underrated. everyone i know who has seen it thought it was great.

i'd say the same for zoolander. i've met so few people who have seen it, but most who have have it as one of their favorite comedies.

lucky number slevin is another who no one has seen, but it's a really good movie.

I have a couple of friends who loved Zoolander. I just couldn't get into it. I like the strange and unusual so I was disappointed I didn't care for it. Maybe it was just my mood at the time. I'll give it another chance some day.

The gasoline fight in Zoolander is classic.

Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead

Classic. It made fun of everything possible.

i thought it was weird the first time too. since then i've seen it like 200 times.


(not even really sure how much of an exaggeration that is).

Be Kind Rewind is great but not many people that I know have seen it.

And nobody in my town appreciates Misery. It's a sad, sad place I live in.

For some reason I know every word of this movie. One of the best Guest/Meathead movies.

I decided on Old School. I think Vince Vaughn and Will Farrell together are hilarious. :laugh:

IMO, by far the most under-rated movie ever is fear of a black hat, a spoof on hip-hop culture. . . i would have to say it's the funniest movie i've ever seen-- it literally had me rolling on a number of occasions. . . it's one of those movies with such witty one-liners that a good half of the dialogue is quotable. . . .
