A Photo Gallery of Twenty-Nine Films - Almost all of them produced in the last twenty-five years - Almost all of them with top tier actors or directors

“Almost all of them produced in the last twenty-five years”

None of the most underrated films have been made this century. Most films from the classic era are great and most have been forgotten.

[OKSooner]

Stalag Seventeen, William Holden’s master work.

[xcullen]

Not as bad a list as I feared. That thing you Do, The Count of Monte Cristo both really good.

***Almost all of them produced in the last twenty-five years***

Not fit to watch. Give me the older GREAT movies! Captain from Castile, Prince of Foxes, The Pride and the Passion, El Cid, 55 Days at Peking! Fall of the Roman Empire, Khartoum,
ZULU, Zulu Dawn, The Black Rose, The War Lord....and so many other great ones from the past.

I don’t think I have ever seen any of these. And I don’t have any interest in seeing any now.

Idiocracy better be on the list - it is becoming more and more prophetic each day!

[DIRTYSECRET]

Mississippi Masala. I saw a trailer. It’s the girl’s Indian father(from Nigeria) scolding a young Denzel Washington: “You don’t know what racism is.”
It’s something American blacks don’t get. Just ask any Caribbean.

[the OlLine Rebel]

Agreed.

As soon as I see last 25 years, as all time, I know it’s benighted.

[the OlLine Rebel]

True. Unfortunately.

[Psalm 73]

Didn't see any of them, but I can think of a 1/2-dozen sleepers:

Waking Ned Devine
Grand Canyon
Made in Heaven
The Trouble With Harry
The God’s Must be Crazy
October Sky
Don Juan De Marco

Seen any of 'em?

[Fledermaus]

October Sky is good.

[Night Hides Not]

Still Crazy, 1999 movie about a fictional band from the 70s reuniting for another chance at stardom. Great cast, excellent soundtrack.

”If men are from Mars, and women are from Venus, then drummers are from Pluto.”

[KingLudd]

Underrated by whom? What is the rating system? Is it the opposite of overrated? People sound dumb when they use it.

[FamiliarFace]

Love that! I haven’t watched it in years though.

[Texas resident]

Zulu was an awesome movie. Who ever produce that knew battle tactics very well.

[Vendome]

I saw many of these and they mostly sucked.

However, “Chef” is absolutely a must see. It follows a man to his life dream and purpose.

“Vanilla Sky” is easily worse than “Meet Joe Black”

[FamiliarFace]

TCMC is one of only two that I’ve seen. Most of the others, I’ve never heard of. Not that I’m much of a movie fan, especially anything of late. Hollywood’s idea of entertainment has often diverged from mine.
