Movies that are awesome but did not blow out the box office, you list your faves.


I have become something of a movie buff, lately, I have really bad insomnia I probably watch something around 5 or 6 movies a week


Here are some really good movies I think, I will update this as I go.

Hard Candy - Features Juno from the movie Juno, I really enjoy the way it is filmed, the whole picture is not revealed in a lot of different ways. Really interesting subject matter too.

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford - Longest title for any film like ever. If you are ADD not the movie for you, it has a lot of beautiful slow scenes, and some of the best acting I have seen in a very long time.

Matchstick Men - Nicholas Cage's best role in my honest opinion(and I am a big fan of The Rock(not the man the movie.)) When I finished it really made me think, go back through the plot. Very good acting in this as well.

the only problem with pulp fiction is that its been such a big cult phenomenon, and its been so many years, that everyone who has heard about it thinks that it was a big box office hit.

a good amount of these were box office block busters Im pretty sure.

300, V, and I am legend jump out at me. And do you really think I am legend belongs in this thread, flop or not? Its not underrated, it was ok, but not a great movie by any stretch.

Not really a problem, as you are technically correct. Though not stated as such, I think OP's point with this thread was to hear about some lesser-known but great movies that may have slipped by the mainstream.

ah, yah that makes sense.

Well then I think your choice of equilibrium is perfect.

Another really good action (martial arts) movie is ong-bak. Also any john woo/chow yun fat movie, while not technically flops since they did very well in the hong kong cinemas, but were never here in theaters to my knowledge.

rilla, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, dont get me wrong. I just wanted so much more out of it.

trip, yah the professional is such a great movie. Speaking of that french guy, I wonder how ronin did in theaters, because if it flopped then it belongs in this thread as well.

reign of fire <-- HUGELY overlooked/underrated movie.

I know. I know. I wanted to like it. Really. Its an excellent movie for what it is -- a portrayal of mafia life in new york.. But it failed as a "cinematic adventure". I wasn't *involved*

That is, of course, a major difference between the 1970s era and now.

I cant really blame the godfather as its really my fault.

If you like Ong Bak see The Protector featuring the same guy. In the end scene he breaks like 5 billion bones, it's badass.

Boiler Room is really good and im sure it didnt do well in cinema.

Ong bak is quality. Naploen Dynamite did shit in Irish cinemas but is amazing!

 Braveheart?

By comparison (budget/USA gross):

Pulp Fiction ($8M/$107M) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110912/business
Braveheart ($53M/$75M) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112573/business

I'm also a huge fan of Last of the Mohicans... which wasn't a widespread commercial success...
So you click their picture and then you get their money?
