A couple of well reviewed but under the radar English comedies (the thread seems to be covering both underrated, and well reviewed but under the radar flicks):





The last one gave rise to Veep.

Stardust



I've always thought the story was very original and fun. Definitely flew under the radar.

The Fugitive. Tommy Lee Jones was great in that movie but can't remember how heralded it was.

I did a big double take here. That masterpiece isn't underrated anywhere.

In the Loop is one of my favorite movies of all time. So hilarious. As mentioned, if you liked Veep, you'll love In the Loop

Mr Holland's Opus. One of Richard Dreyfuss's best performances and a great job by the underrated Glenne Headley (May she rest in peace).

Dark City, as previously mentioned.

Kingdom of Heaven gets overlooked. The director's cut is brilliant.

Anyone who hasn't recognized the brilliance of Big Trouble in Little China at this point in our collective history is an idiot.



Who's Jack Burton?

Crazy how KR wasn't even the protagonist, he was the sidekick comic relief.

How about "Bad Boys" with Sean Penn? I liked that movie when I was younger.

Just watched one last night that I think fits:

Running Scared.

Great chemistry between Crystal and Hines. Makes me wonder why Hines didn't have many more major roles after. I guess dancing was more his first love so maybe acting wasn't as much a priority.


One of mine and my dad's favorites. They are so great together. And Jimmy Smits was great in it too.

I remember Gregory Hines in a movie where he does dance, and I haven't seen it in decades, but remember really enjoying it. White Nights, I think. And it kinda fits this thread. Don't kill me if I am remembering incorrectly, but I do remember it being really good.

Warrior

Time After Time


Are you referring to Warrior, the MMA movie with Tom Hardy? If yes, that is one of my guilty pleasure, feel good movies. Love that movie, and I do not understand why it doesn't get more run as a good movie.

Speaking of 1980s Soviet setting, anyone see "The Beast" about a Soviet tank in Afghanistan?

Phenomenal movie. Highly rated by critics. Just not known well by most audiences:

Maybe because I grew up in the NW and wrestled from 3rd grade up but this movie is a classic….

Secondhand Lions is a good one. More people should see this movie.
Will check it out. Thanks! With this new kodi build my streaming should go on a new quality level and i am very excited about it. I didn't have much time to watch a lot of new movies and tv shows for the past three years. so now is a time to catch up and see what i missed eventually
