10 Underrated Movies You Should Watch 

Shiva Baby made me laugh and cringe so hard at the same time. It’s such a masterclass of what it feels like to be suffocated by your family and friends while also trying to keep your head above water and be kind to yourself. Plus Diana Agron is in it so that alone is worth it. I can’t recommend this movie enough.

My biggest flex is that I already watched all these movies.

A little correction; Fahrenheit 451 is a novel by Rad Bradbury, and Francois Truffaut made a movie from the story.

As a Kenyan its so suprising to see Rafiki on here. Its truly an underrated gem that should be appreciated by a wider audience

3:30 - the wolf of snow hollow 6:48 - equilibrium 11:21 - dope 14:33 - perfect blue 18:42 - shiva baby 24:58 - rafiki 28:13 - the invitation 30:09 - sound of metal 33:16 - heart attack (freelance) 34:14 - bergman island 36:22 - ingrid goes west 36:33 - thunder road 36:39 - 3:10 to yuma 36:47 - ready or not 37:10 - the nice guys

I loved Ready or Not. I watched it in the cinema and was so surprised at how good it was and how few people came to watch it.

Shiva baby is an excellent thriller. Since it’s low stakes people don’t think of it in that vein but what makes it extra thrilling is that it’s real. Its situations we can all imagine ourselves in. That’s what actually makes it scary as hell.

I appreciate how unapologetic Shiva Baby was in its portrayal of bisexuality and of sex work. So many movies act as those they have to make this big statement about the validity of sex work or the reality of bisexual identities in a binary world, but this movie just made them feel like another aspect of an already painfully authentic experience of this young woman's life.

The long scene in Equilibrium where Christian Bale is staring at a puppy and is trying to not have emotions is one the greatest things I've ever seen in a movie. The perfect blend of funny and camp.

I think The Nice Guys is actually my favorite film of all time. It is so expertly timed with comedy, filmed gorgeously, perfectly cast, with some of the best production design ever put to screen. Wind River is also pretty high up there for me personally. That movie is super fucking depressing and again expertly made. Very well written story especially of such heavy subject matter and really wish it didn’t fly under so many peoples’ radar.

I found Perfect Blue by accident in the anime section of my local video rental shop while I was in college. It blew my mind. I’ve tried to show it to people and they often dismiss it because they aren’t into anime or think it’s fluff. Nobody believes me when I tell them it’s an amazing, dark, twisted mystery. Thanks for highlighting it, more people need to see it.

I love Perfect Blue so, so much. And I'm so glad you brought up Dope, because I completely forgot about it and I remember absolutely loving it. Also, Ingrid Goes West is phenomenal. Despite social media changing since it came out, it still always feels like the most realistic portrayal of any movie dealing with social media.

The fact that Equilibrium's cast is basically the Dark Knight Trilogy's Batman vs the Gotham TV series' Alfred always makes me laugh

So great to see The Nice Guys finally getting some recognition, it's definitely in my top 10 favorite movies! Also, I love Ryan Gosling's performance in this role, he's a really versatile actor and so great at comedy! If you haven't seen it yet, I really recommend Lars and the Real Girl, another fun movie with him c:

My personal recommendations would be "Only Lovers Left Alive" (with Tom Hiddleston and Tilda Swinton) and "What Lies Beneath" (Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer) both excellent little gems. OLLA is filmed entirely at night in Marrakech and Detroit, and has gorgeous, very chill music. WLB is a mildly spooky thriller with some phenomenal acting.

C'mon C'mon from last year is severely unnoticed considering it's an A24 release and stars Joaquin Phoenix. It's such a special little film about childhood and about how it can get a bit overwhelming sometimes for children to process their emotions. The film felt like a hug, it's full of love and understanding and compassion for everyone and everything. It's amazing and I'm always surprised by it not getting any award nods or even just twitter hype, felt so overlooked but it deserves so so much more attention. Also: Cha Cha Real Smooth (2022) Mustang (2015) Perfect Sense (2011) Me and Earl and the Dying Girl (2015) On the Count of Three (2021)

If only you'd placed Shiva at number 7! Was literally just telling my friend about this one, as I'm currently mourning the loss of my grandmother and sitting Shiva. Btw a Shiva isn't a Jewish funeral, it follows the 7 days post the burial, and consists of the children of the deceased who are there all the time (at least in Mizrahi jews) including their children. It gives people who knew the deceased a chance to console the family, help them take care of everything by bringing them food and making sure everyone is comfortable.

You've asked for recommendations so here is mine: "The Fall" by Tarsem Singh (2006) - the visuals, the process of making this movie, the child actress that learned English during filming which was taken into account while making it, the little amount of special effects in the movie (stated by the director)... I saw it kind of on accident on TV (wanted to see it for Lee Pace anyway) and after it ended I wanted to immediately replay to see what I missed. And just to add something form my country, Poland (though it was filmed in Portugal with international cast, in English) - "Imagine" by Andrzej Jakimowski (2012) - a story of a blind man, a teacher for blind kids, who refuses to use the traditional methods of space perception to the point where the kids accuse him of lying when it comes to his blindness.

The Invitation is definitely criminally underrated. The premise is so good and so intriguing that it keeps you on the edge of your seat.

A movie I never hear anyone talk about that I think is truly amazing is “stranger than fiction” starring will Ferrell. It is the only serious role I’ve seen him do and the entire story line is so incredible and riveting. You should definitely check it out. Love your videos!

One movie I wish more people knew about is "lake michigan monster" the best way I can describe it is that it's one of the most genuinely unique movies I've ever seen. It starts out as a parody of old monster movies from the 50's and then just goes in its own insane direction

I have 2 films I watched recently that I think are underrated: 1. Thoroughbreds - it’s one of the first films Anya Taylor-Joy did and is an all around well-crafted film. It’s best to go into it without knowing too much but basically two best friends, one who is a psychopath awaiting trial for animal cruelty and the other a repressed girl who is keeping secrets, plan to kill the latter’s stepfather. It’s pretty witty and sharp and there’s a 6-minute long take towards the end that will have you on the edge of your seat, not just for the story but for how well it’s set up and shot. 2. Rosaline - this movie was recently dumped on Hulu and to my knowledge it hasn’t really made any noise. It’s a satire comedy of Romeo and Juliet told from the point of view of Rosaline, Romeo’s secret girlfriend that he had when he met Juliet. The movie follows Rosaline as she attempts to get Romeo back and inadvertently is the cause behind the major plot points of R&J. Movies like this can get pretty cheesy or just not funny but this managed to maintain most of its humor and fast pace. It has some classic romantic comedy tropes like enemies to lovers and is all around just a really fun film. Kaitlyn Dever plays the lead and she is perfect.

Brimstone is another underrated western. Its a dutch production featuring Dakota Fanning, Guy Pearce, Carice van Houten and Kit Harrington. It is a western thriller with some horror elements. It was very well received in The Netherlands but didn't really do anything in other countries. Highly recommend it!

one of thee MOST underrated movies in recent history I can think of is Seven Psychopaths - it's about a struggling screenwriter trying to write his next movie but has writer's block, but he gets caught up in the criminal world after his friend kidnaps a crime boss's dog as a con. I have watched that movie multiple times since it's release and just everything about it is so seamless. And the dark humour is genuinely so well crafted and the subtlety and balance of everyone's performances (Colin Ferrell, Sam Rockwell, Christopher Walken, Woody Harrelson like come onnn) make for a fantastic and chaotic ride, I don't wanna say much else so I'll leave it there, but seriously I strongly recommend it and wish it got more love! Also The Hunt I think is strongly underrated, The Last Black Man in San Francisco had it's moment for a split second but fell under the radar but it's truly one of my favourite movies in the last few years (and is basically the catalyst for Jonathan Majors recognition now! he is phenomenal in it), Gattaca Happy you mentioned Equilibrium I was obsessed with it as a child too and is definitely something that's worth a rewatch. AND FINALLY SOME RECOGNITION FOR THE NICE GUYS !!!

one movie Ill always recommend is "dear zindagi" . its a Bollywood movie which deconstruct grief , family trauma and i just love it . its kinda like coming of age movie and how to navigate the world and relationships as a young adult and I know it kinda sounds generic but please watch it , its definitely worth it

The wolf of Snow Hallow is so good! To anyone who likes that movie, I recommend watching The Kid Detective. It's another dark comedy detective movie. The story follows this former kid detective (think Nacy Drew, Hardy Boys, etc) after he couldn't solve the case of what happened to his missing friend. Now in his adulthood, he gets a chance to redeem himself after a high school student asks him to solve the murder of her boyfriend. The Kid Detective has a similar tone and comedy style to The Wolf of Snow Hallow and a great ending.

At 14:31. Yes to "Perfect Blue"! That was one head trip of a movie--extremely creepy, but also philosophically deep, exploring the many epistemological strains of what it means for a person to have an identity. Even more impressive, it came out in 1997, well before the internet came up with things like social media and murderous incels. And this movie predicted both so perfectly. Another thing that shocked me about this film--it was 89 minutes long. Incredibly short as far as these types of movies go. I credit the very tight scriptwriting and direction here, which was almost genius level. IMHO one of the best movies ever made in the past 40 years anywhere in the world.

My recommendation is Martha Marcy May Marlene. To this day it’s the most tense, paranoia-inducing movie I’ve ever seen. Watched it in cinemas twice, and both times multiple people in the cinema literally screamed during a certain scene despite the fact that it’s not at all a jump scare, just because of how tightly-wound the movie makes you. Criminally underrated. Also it was the movie that put Elizabeth Olson on the map!

A movie I think is super underrated is Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri. It got a bit of attention at the Oscar’s a few years ago but I don’t see people talk about it much. It’s a great drama about a woman trying to get justice for her daughter’s assault and murder by calling out the police department of her town for not doing enough and we see how her grief leads her and the rest of the town to really messed up and even violent places, and despite the bleak premise it also manages to have great dark comedy throughout. The cast is fantastic, it stars Francis Mcdormand, Sam Rockwell, and Woody Harrelson.

I'm so glad someone is finally goving The Nice Guys the recognition it deserves! Its such a fun movie overall and I kept finding myself going back to it over the years over a lot of other things, although a sequel would be fun, it does so well as a stand alone film it doesnt really need one!

The sound of metal was INSANELY good and more people need to watch it. It's a movie I will never forget this movie, it was so unique and raw with incredible acting, writing and characters. I will root for this movie until the day I die and the last scene never fails to make me cry.

Here’s my two cents from France: Rust and Bone, emotional story, basically about two damaged people healing each other, and amazing performances from Marion Cotillard and Matthias Schoenaerts. By the way, this video is such a GREAT idea, not only for your recommendations, which I appreciate very much and will immediately add to my watchlist, being already a fan of Sound of Metal and Equilibrium, but also for all the gems I’ll find in the comments section. Thanks everyone!

one of the best films in history is "the man from earth" - such a simple, yet interesting concept. it pretty much all happens in one room as well. I must have seen it at least 15 times and I am always hooked! other films I recommend: 5 to 7 - 2014 an education - 2009 frank & lola - 2016 swiss army man - 2016 the handmaiden - 2016 the hunt - 2019 the little prince - 2015 untogether - 2018 the riot club - 2014 the skin i live in - 2011 the voyeurs - 2021 upgrade - 2018 come away - 2020 a bigger splash - 2015 for the ones who like older movies as well: the shop around the corner - 1940 rope - 1948

OMG when you said Perfect Blue I nearly fell over lol. I would highly recommend Satoshi Kon's second feature film Millennium Actress if you haven't seen it already. Beside being a animated marvel the story is a heartfelt love letter to early Japanese cinema. Great video, will definitely be watching these over the next few weeks!

A film I'd reccommend is "Colossal" that came out in 2016. It stars Anne Hathaway and Jason Sudeikas, with the basic premise of an alcholic woman who, after returning to her hometown, finds that she is somehow controlling a giant kaiju in japan whenever she moves around a playground at a certain time. Won't say much beyond that, but it is a story with some heavy moments, and the performances drive it so much.

One movie I don’t think got as much attention as it deserved (although that might be different now that there’s a tv series on it)-but Snowpiercer. It was everything I wanted in a movie. Beautiful cinematography, incredibly storytelling, shocking twists. Absolutely loved it.

I had no idea there was a queer African story of any kind that existed and as a queer Nigerian, the accomplishment of Rafiki sounds amazing. I will definitely watch. A VERY underrated movie I would recommend (though I am HIGHLY biased) is 'Queen of Katwe'. It's a Ugandan film about a girl who trains herself to be good at chess until she is one of the best in Africa(I'm 50% sure it's based on a true story). Lupita Nyong'o plays the girl's mum and I think it is one of her most underrated roles ever. I loved the commentary on West African sexism examined from the lens of the main character, her mum and her sister (TW: SA) Edit: I also want to recommend a Nigerian movie adaptation called 'Half of a yellow sun', but as a long time fan of Chimamanda Adichie, that is just my nostalgia talking and the book is much better imo, read that instead

I would like to recommend A Monster Calls, it’s a really good film about grief and letting go, but it is portrait in a very creative and poetic way. It’s sad but beautiful at the same time.

So happy to hear The Nice Guys getting some love. I remember seeing it in theaters when it first came out and loved it, but saw other theater goers walk out during it. I was sad it didn't do well, and couldn't find anyone else who had seen it. Glad it's getting the love it deserves.

I kept recommending this movie to all my friends and they all loved it. As a metalhead myself I LOVED Netflix "Metal Lords". It's a teen comedy, and the romance was finally not an oversexualization of teen characters. It's also hilariuos. 10/10

10. The wolf hollow 9. Equilibrium 8. Dope 7. Perfect blue 6. Shiva baby 5. Rafiki 4. The Invitation 3. Sound of Metal 2. Heart Attack 1. the nice guys Bergman Island, Ingrid goes west, 3 to yuma, ready or not

Absolutely great video as usual, just a small mistake you made about farenheit 451, the film is Truffaut's but the novel is bradbury's. But going to watch all films, thanks for the recos!

Ready or Not is SUCH a fun movie! It had the balls to make the ending go absolutely wild but it’s definitely the only way for the conclusion to be satisfying! So good

Shiva Baby is a wild ride. It’s such a gem of a film and deeply enjoyable, but holy hell, did it ever make me anxious lol

If your love Perfect Blue, watch Paranoia Agent created by Satoshi Kon who also directed Perfect Blue. Paranoia Agent is so good. You'll love it.

I beg of anyone who reads this to watch Treasure Planet, it was a passion project for the directors since the 80’s and it was finally released on 2002 November 27 (perfect excuse to watch or rewatch it because the 20th anniversary is so soon). It is such a masterpiece, and it’s such a shame that the marketing team did it so dirty. I can’t say much because of legal stuff but it’s marketing designed it to fail because they wanted to cut 2D animation and it worked sadly, hence the cut of 2D animation by Disney in 2004 but luckily none of that effects the actual movie luckily. Dirty mouse business aside, Treasure Planet is about Jim Hawkins who has a personality of gold, and he finds a map to treasure planet (a place that is thought to be just a legend) so once they start a pirate-space boat ride, Jim learns trusts the cook silver like a father figure after Jim’s real father left and never came back and I can’t say a whole lot after the first like half an hour because there is so many good twists and even a character you don’t find out about until an hour in. It has the best animation and visuals I’ve ever seen, the best story, the best characters, the best comedy not too much and not too little, the best everything. You can take it as an absolute joke or completely serious and it works both ways. Seriously I beg of you to watch this you won’t regret it, for fucks sake after it’s marketing team trying to make it fail, it still got awards and it still has a following and community TWO DECADES LATER.

As a Thai person I am very happy you put heart attack on your list. I think it’s my favorite Thai movie I’ve ever seen so far

definitely watch palm springs if you havent already! its so unique and thought provoking and i loved its humor and weirdness

You've got me interested in dope and shiva baby. Perfect blue was on my watch list for nearly a decade so I guess it's time to eventually watch it. I was going to recommend the nice guys to you and I'm glad you included it in the list

Ray Bradbury wrote Fahrenheit 451. François Truffaut directed the film adaptation.

I feel like most people have never even heard of Equilibrium! This is my go-to answer for “what’s your favorite movie” (when people won’t let me say “the LOTR trilogy”). It’s really beautifully filmed. While it definitely takes inspiration from 1984, you can also see that it was heavily influenced by other classic dystopian stories like Brave New World and Fahrenheit 451. (It’d probably be a fun comparative analysis project to dissect all four stories.)

a very underrated movie i don’t often hear people talking about is Wild Things, i personally loved it. It has amazing and un expectable plot twists

great video: just to precise that Truffaut adapted Ray Bradbury's novel: Fahrenheit 451. Anyway, loved the vid and excited to check them out

I just watched The Wonder last night on Netflix I think. I believe with quite a few nice stars it's really human. I felt all of the mental gymnastics that Emma was going through to solve the problem with as few consequences as possible. The town and atmosphere is very well done. Also when dialogue can be replaced with emotion and action, it is and I adore the film for it.

For me the most underrated film I ever saw is The Black Coat's Daughter. It's a slow burn horror movie that explores the negative effects and sometimes horrors of isolation. It's great at atmosphere and letting the audience put pieces together and the actresses are so great in their roles too.

I love all the things you rec they never dissapoint!

Recommendation - Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium. It's insane to me how underrated it is. It's a comedy-drama starring Dustin Hoffman and Natalie Portman about a magical toy store apprentice who got promoted to manager by the owner, and It's genuinely one of the most heartfelt and inspiring movies I've ever seen. It's not perfect, but I personally think it's great and have an amazing message about self growth and self improvement. Also the directing, editing and cinematography are well done, the score is great and Portman and Hoffman are amazing in it. If I had to summarise it in one sentence I would call it a live action early 2000's Pixar movie, made by Wes Anderson and Edgar Wright. If that doesn't convinces you to check it out, I don't know what will.

i absolutely adore Rafiki getting mentioned! i saw the movie years ago at a film festival when it first came out, so so good!

I love this! Keep up the good work!

I highly recommend "Carnage" to everyone who has not seen it. It is a "Kammerspiel" (chamber game? English is not my first language) with Christoph Waltz and it is just sooo good.

"Fahrenheit 451" is a novel by Ray Bradbury. Truffaut just made an adaptation in 1966 Great video!

Some movies I’d recommend: Colossal - an American woman discovers that a monster in Seoul is mimicking her movements exactly. It has such a ridiculous premise but pulls it off so well, in live action no less. Coherence - a group of friends gather for a dinner party, but a passing comet makes spooky events happen. It’s a short movie, so I can’t say much more without spoiling it, but for a low-budget film it’s really eerie and well-acted. What Happened to Monday - a group of septuplet girls are forced to pretend to be one person under a strict one-child policy. Paradise Hills - girls of rich families are sent to an island to be retrained into who their families want them to be. It’s more of a teen movie, so it’s a bit overly simplistic, but the movie’s visuals are beautiful.

this is a great selection, thanks!

Really love your voice dude. Sorry if it's off-topic, but I think it's integral to running a commentary channel. You're great to listen to

Great list. Thanks!

The Nice Guys - Absolutely underrated, every time you're queued for a cliche it's turned on it's head, a comedy with so many unexpected twists, great characters brought by great performances, 10/10

"Searching" I pitch this to everyone, it's one of my favorite movies of all time, it's just so well crafted and well written I highly recommend it!

I absolutely loved Sound of Metal and agree with all your points about it. It was heartbreaking and felt so human. Riz Ahmed really killed it in this movie, he was SO GOOD.

Great picks got really excited when you said wolf of snow mountain. One of my favourite films!

I’d love to see more recommendation videos! Both this and the underrated shows video were awesome!

Anyone who liked Perfect Blue, has to watch Paprika and the show Paranoia Agent also directed by Satoshi Kon. It's somehow even weirder.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ACKNOWLEDGING THE NICE GUYS. I spend an abnormal amount of my free time trying to convince people to watch it, especially friends who loved Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (The Nice Guys is an unofficial sequel to this that was meant to kick off a series of detective films, they're both based off novels from the same book series.)

Highly highly recommend "come from away". Saw it live and the pro shot does a fantastic job. The story is beautiful and 100% based on real events. I know it's a little different but I would still count it as a movie and I think while it's very loved by the theatre community it's a musical that deserves more mainstream pop culture recognition.

That's awesome, gonna watch so many of those! Another film I really like (no clue how rated it is) is The Dressmaker with Kate Winslet. Funny, emotional, cathartic, I've watched it several times by now

I absolutely love how you chose such a diverse range of movies, I definitely want to watch all of them. Dope and The Nice Guys are top of the list As for movie recommendations: idk if this movie is super popular, but please watch He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not. Its a French movie with the amazing Audrey Tautou. Also there is a Malayalam movie called Neram and the whole movie is just so intelligently done, I absolutely adore it.

Lucky Number Slevin, I cannot recommend this movie more, it's easily in my top ten of all time. Bang Bang You're Dead, was a showtime movie based on a play, but its about school shootings and bullying, stars Ben Foster in a truly amazing performance. Sticking with that theme, Home Room, a movie set after a school shooting, revolving around the police trying to piece things together and two survivors working through their trauma. The Nines, Ryan Reynolds doing a drama comedy that hits the feels and is really an amazing movie with several great costars. Lastly, Charlie Bartlett. My man Anton Yelchin (RIP bud) with Robert Downing Jr and Kat Dennings. Another great movie.

Absolutely great list. Thanks buddy.

It may not be as underrated as some of the picks you've put here, but Andhadhun (2018) is just incredible. The movie follows a pianist who is faking blindess for musical inspiration. He falls in love with a girl, and plays gigs at her father's restaurant. One day, a retired actor notices his talents invites him to play at his wedding anniversary. He gets there and he gets greeted by the actor's wife, who is convinced that the pianist is blind, who asks him to play for her. As he starts playing, he witnesses a murder that will turn his life upside down in ways he could never imagine. What follows is a dark comedy mystery thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat. This movie is simply brilliant. A must watch.

Although it was a huge success in Japan, more people need to watch Your Name! It is such a beautiful, touching story with stunning visuals.

I absolutely suggest Beasts of the Southern Wild/Les Bêtes du Sud Sauvage by Benh Zeitlin. I haven't heard a lot of people talk about it and it was a pick from my friend group in university. We were all cinema students and so we decided to share movies we found on the side and thought the others needed to see. A friend shared it and I enjoyed this movie so much. It's so interesting and smart, with both emotional intelligence and incredible cinematography. It won Sundance's pick in 2012 if that counts for you. It's about a little kid named Hushpuppy who lives in the Bayou with her dad, and they live in a community of marginalised people who live on the water, on boats and barges and floating platforms. They have their own school, their own government system, and it has a lot of illusions and visual metaphors. The drama revolves a lot about how the dam that keeps water from their community will cease functioning and threaten them. I loved this movie, all from Hushpuppy's perspective, with themes of race and inclusion and living on your own and building a community.

Looking very hard forward now to "The nice guys" and "Sound of metal" - thanks for your always good recommendations!

So happy to hear you are engaged! Congrats!

I have to agree with you on perfect blue. I think it’s so underrated, it’s weird and disturbing. I watched it last weekend I’m so happy that you added it here.

There are worse days to be sent home because you potentially have COVID. The timing of this video is just excellent 👌

This list is excellent. There were only a couple of movies you had that I hadn't heard of or seen. I plan on rectifying that as soon as possible. I love that you included Equilibrium. It is so weird and suffers from Matrix-itus, but I really enjoyed it. Gunkata is awesome!

The Double (2013) with Jesse Eisenberg and Mia Wasikowska I remember thinking at how insane and dystopian the film is, it's one of those films you need to really watch a second time to digest it all.

Some recomendations, that I think you would enjoy: 1. ARQ - it has masterfully executed time loop. I think that's already enough :) 2. Coherence - I don't know how to describe it without spoiling, but it has a group of friends, a misterius comet and a lot of secrets and confrontations. Great brain teaser. 3. Perfetti sconosciuti, or Perfect Strangers - again, a group of friends, secrets and confrontations, but this time without any fantastic elements, just talking, with a single twist - all your phone interactions during the dinner must be done publicly. Great conversations, and amazing ending, that hits you in waves, as you digest it. 4. Significant Other - beautiful cinematography and sound design. But the story is minblowingly elegant and effective. I can't say anything specific, since it'll spoil the movie. The less you know about, the better the impact. But it's one of the best movies I saw for a long time and would recommend to everyone! If anyone would see any of those movies - I'd be very happy, since I've enjoyed them so much, but they aren't talked about at all.

Great list! I enjoyed Shiva Baby, The Wolf of Snow Hollow & Ready Or Not! The Sound of Metal and Rafiki have been on my watchlist for a while. Some underrated movies that came to my mind: Down With Love, Gosford Park, The Kid Detective (this one I would definitely recommend if you enjoy The Nice Guys!). And 2 german films: Victoria, I'm Your Man.

I've only seen #1 and #3 on this list so my playlist just got a little longer. I love the obvious joy you put into these videos whether you're discussing something you loved or hated. Regarding your request for recommendations; The Way of the Gun, La Haine, Man Bites Dog, and Swiss Army Man

PERFECT BLUUEEEEEE THANK YOU FOR COVERING IT !!!!!!!! IM OBSESSED

Half of this list had me shouting "Hell yes" in approval, and the other half I was adding to my watchlist because they sounded phenomenal. For my own underrated picks, I'd say Song of the Sea, Memories of Murder, and more recently Catherine Called Birdie would be my top picks.

I had a feeling Equilibrium was going to be on this list! But I was genuinely shocked and excited to see Nice Guys. I saw it in theaters and loved it! My friend group was not impressed. Happy to see this movie getting some love here. Also, I want to add that if you haven’t watched the 2004 (South Korean I believe) Romance/ Drama called 3-Iron, I highly recommend it. It is a VERY interesting movie. Not what I expected when I went in watching it. And honestly I would love to know your opinion of the movie if you walked away from it with one.

My super underrated movie is Columbus. It's also my comfort movie. I think it's such a beautiful portrayal of human connection without needing an intense or crazy plot to drive it. Kogonada writes, directs, and edits it. He is such a genius. There's just so much thought put into every shot. The Wes Anderson-like angles in it are also so satisfying. Also John Cho and Hailey Lu Richardson are phenomenal actors with perfect chemistry. I could go on and on about it lol.

sound of metal is amazing! and you mentioned a lot of these on the podcast!

Love these recommendations! I'm always looking for new movies to watch! As someone who has seen many movies one of my favorites, and one I believe is incredibly underrated is black bear! The film is split into two distinct parts and each half makes you feel very intense emotions. I dont think it's perfect but its incredibly unpredictable and full of amazing performances, especially from Aubrey Plaza

Just to let you know, Kamikoto is connected to Established Titles and I've seen some videos calling them out as scam. I've also seen a video directly related to Kamikoto knives debunking the claims they make about their knives (what makes a knive good and what not and that Kamikoto knives are not the best)

The Nice Guys is such a good movie, I've seen it like 4 times, and until now I never knew there was a RDJ cameo

I will absolutely watch a few of those entries. All of those seem very entertaining, so I'll have something to watch for a while. Thank you :)

I recommend the guilty. It has Jake Gylenhaal in it and it's just so good even though the whole movie happens in basically one room. Jake Gylenhaal's performance is amazing. It explores guilt and redemption in a wonderful way. I can't recommend it enough. Also, shout out Kenya.

My pick for an underrated film is Wind River. I absolutely love it but every time I mention it, no one seems to know about it.
