How are spider-man, spider-man 2, The Dark Knight Rises & Rocky Balboa underrated? Loads of people love them!

All I hear is bad mouthing for those films.

Somewhat of an oldie: The Way of the Gun

New kid on the block that got no love: Robin Hood. That was some quality medieval action and drama.

That was beastly mech action right there.

I agree! I actually just saw it for the first time a few weeks ago. It may not quite live up to Gladiator standards, but it's solid and entertaining.

A personal fav. I really enjoyed the lack of dialogue between Del Toro & Phillippe's characters & yet they still knew what the other was thinking or would react to a situation.

There were all of five other people in the theater when I saw it. Couldn't believe that was such a sleeper.

He Got Game was such an underrated movie, how Denzel didn't get an award I don't know.

^I had forgotten all about that one. Great flick indeed.

^I know, it gets written off as a basketball movie when in reality it's a beautiful story played out brilliantly.
