i.e., movies that are not well-known but are critically acclaimed, such as Terry Gilliam's "Brazil" or Ben Wheatley's early films don't count. I mean movies that plenty of people watched but that got terrible or mediocre reviews for no clear/fair reason at all.
Met Mark Kermode recently at a screening of Silent Running and showed him the RT score of pic related, he agreed with my confusion and said it was poppycock to call it anything less than a perfectly entertaining pulp sci-fi thriller with some really great set-pieces. Not a classic by any means but its uniformly vicious reception is just nuts. hbu?
Does this count?

Saw it in theaters upon release. It's perfectly rated.
Rated as shit.
sphere was absolute garbage you fucking moron
>look at muh unique opinyuh
>le underrated
Shut up fucking plebeian shitter
>>70029120
Kermode is a cuck these days, he only rates movies on how empowering for women and minorities they are.

Postal
Freddy Got Fingered
Quarantine 2
John Carter, Jupiter Ascending

He never shuts up about it, does he?
Legitimately underrated? Starship Troopers.
>>70029291
Nope. It's got cult appeal.

I'll admit I saw Jupiter Ascending and found it more genuinely entertaining than 90% of the shit churned out by the big studios for the summer. Better than capeshit. I'll take an original IP over a steamroller-on-autopilot megafranchise anyday. The Wachowskis are far from perfect, but I respect the fact they have some serious balls.

>they have some serious balls.
Not anymore they don't.
Fucking Lebowski is a cult classic and sprouted more memes than average lurker can remember.
Meanwhile this masterpiece is not even mentioned most of the time when people talk Coens.

this nigga flatley think that millers crossing better than goodfellas lmao
>>70029654
absolutely lovable, I don't care about Tatum, Kunis is cute of course, but the world is really nice. The CGI and the costumes are wonderful andthe whole regenx business and how quasi immortal beings are still obsessed with profits and how their favorite past time is still scheming and lying really makes one wonder
>>70029828
I think so too. Goodfellas is great but not as perfect. Can't think of a single thing that's wrong with MC.
Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within
Even with all the technical achievements it had and all the talk it produced, I belive people didn't got the message and themes the movie tried to convey. They all expected Cloud to run on screen and start swinging his sword and cast magic, in return they got a very underrated sci-fi story and setting.
Even if a lot of people saw it, I feel almost none really did.

Batman v Superman
>>70030522
i generally like it but its got weird pacing and could probably have used another rewrite
>>70029120
the three I think for for Sci-Fi...
Outland
(the hilariously wrong decompression shit does hurt it though. I mean it looks insane and scary as fuck...like who the fuck would ever go into space knowing that's going to happen to you if something went wrong...I sure the fuck wouldn't)
2010: The Year we make Contact
Galaxy of Terror. Probably the best B movie I've ever seen.
