Forums - Movies & TV - The best underappreciated movie of all time.

Don't say why if you don't want, just mention the movie and post a trailer. Also, I need new movies :P.... everyone needs new movies, right!?

first.

This is one of the most underappreciated movies of all time, also my favorite movie of all time. Trust me, this is the definition of psychological thriller.

Onion, PLEASE start posting the youtube links on your threads lol.



Primer.

It's a very dense time travel movie and requires multiple viewings (and reading up on) to understand properly.

Kokuhaku (Confessions)

 

(sorry I couldn't find a better quality trailer)

 

One of the best films I've ever seen, and they never even released it in the US even though it got shortlisted for the foreign film oscar :(

 

The editing and cinematography in this film are incredible. Absolutely love every second of it.

A Japanese live action movie that seemed to have decent actors? going to watch it just for that alone based on the trailer.

Seriously, Japanase have good ideas for their movies, but the actors are so bad is almost unwatchable at times....they are like robots.

As for my pick, not sure if it's underrated since it was nominated for some Oscars (didn't won a single one sadly), Cidade de Deus (City of God in English), a brazilian movie which holy fuck is amazing, is the story of a favela.

Super cliche trailer, but it's the only one I found in English:

Akumu no Elevator (Elevator Trap).  The movie opens with four strangers who have become trapped in an elevator.  Each one has a peculiar personality and each one seemingly has something to hide about why they are in this particular elevator at this time of night.  Talking (and arguing) leads to the idea that perhaps they are in a trap intended to snare one of them.  But which one?

It's a dark comedy and a murder mystery with a lot of twists and unexpected turns.  I really had no idea what was going on.

I'm not gonna lie, I'm mostly a hypocrite when it comes to cinema; I don't like mainstream stuff like the gazillion Marvel movies now, but I only watch the movies announced in big events like the Academy Awards lol

I usually think City of God is underappreciated because very few people I know actually watched it :( and is so freaking good.
