Movies which were surprisingly good

12 Angry Men

Enjoyed it a lot. It's about 12 jury members deciding on what seems to be a clear cut murder case. I love how they integrated the character's story and personality into their decision making.

Not surprised it's ranked so high (#6) on IMDB's top 250 best movies of all time. If you've never seen it, you should check it out.

Yes, 12 Angry Men is also for me one of the best movies ever made. People who rarely watch old movies (i.e. pre- first Star Wars/Godfather) have so much to discover.

To Kill a Mockingbird, The Philadelphia Story, Taxi Driver, Some Like It Hot, Touch of Evil, Rear Window... to name just a few.
