It seems three of my most underrated movies are financial related; Boiler Room, The Big Short and Margin Call.

My other big sleeper is the original Rollerball. It’s really a very violent tale in the vein of The Fountainhead.

Oblivion (2013) was an underrated SF film, IMHO. Critics savaged it. I thought a decent 1980s-style SF story.

I really loathe all these click-through clickbait sites. They should say up front what they have to say instead of forcing this on people.

Most of these movies are just meh, so-so, a little above average. I did like Empire Records. Fuse TV used to show it several times every month, so if nothing else was on, you could tune in. It was like you could drop in at the record store and see the gang anytime you liked. One time I watched it all the way through and didn't much like it. It seemed like That Thing You Do was striving for the same vibe, down to having Liv Tyler in the cast.

Annihilation, Daredevil and Jennifer's Body were junk. Owning Mahoney like most of Philip Seymour Hoffman's movies was worth seeing. I hated In a World, mostly because I can't stand Lake Bell. Vanilla Sky -- watch the original Spanish film.

This one sounds like what I'd want to waste 90 minute of my life on...
'The Rules of Attraction' (2002)
Based on Bret Easton Ellis’ classic 1980s novel of the same name, this dark satire follows an extremely pretentious group of college kids at a liberal arts school. The cast includes Jessica Biel, James Van Der Beek, Ian Somerhalder, and Kate Bosworth.

“52 Pickup”, Roy Scheider and Ann-Margret.

A great movie, if you like “revenge” films where the protagonist gets even with those who think they’ve finished you off.

“Ricochet” with Denzel Washington is another one of the same genre.
