The Iron Giant, one of my favorite movies of all time but it seems that not so many people saw it even tho that it was one of the best films of 1999...

The Iron Giant wasn't under-rated.

It won several awards, universally acclaimed by critics, 97% Certified fresh and named one of the top 10 best animated films of all time by the American Film Institute.

I don't like any underrated movies. Even if I thought I liked one, there would be "raters" out there who I agree with. They just might not be the popular raters. Excuse me, critics.

Trucker. I love that movie and I feel it's criminally unheard of. And Pygmalion needs more attention.

I think The Cell is his best movie. Unfortunately it feels like his movies have been getting progressively worse with each new one. Immortals and Mirror Mirror don't live up to the visuals or story of The Fall or The Cell at all. And now that Eiko Ishioka died I'm not sure how any new movies are ever going to live up. Maybe if he got someone like Kazuma Kaneko to desgin costumes and sets it'd work out.

That film is so good. Is it not critically acclaimed? Or is it lack of commercial success. Would be really surprised if it were the former.

The Divide was a recent film the critics loved to bash, I though it was brilliant but to each their own i guess.

The Host, not so much underrated as it is under watched mainly because it's a foreign film.

Despite it still receiving mixed to positive reviews, I feel Taken is an outstanding action film, and deserves far more praise.

I'd never heard of it until I walked into the rental store and saw it. Gave it a try and found it really engrossing. A very disturbing look at survival and human behaviour under apocalyptic conditions.

Are you talking underrated critically? Because I think pretty much everybody has heard of Boondock Saints plus over the years there has been a ton of merchandising for it.

Edit:

Repo The Genetic Opera. One of the dumbest reviews I ever saw was when they complained about the dialogue, giving "Didn't I tell you not to go out, didn't I?" "You did, you did.", mocking the way the characters repeated themselves. The thing was.... it was a song. There's an entire conversation that follows that exact syntax, over and over again. It's music. Also, it bugs me how it's always compared to Rocky Horror Picture Show. They're nothing alike, but apparently most people can't see anything more complex than "Weird + Music" and assume that means they're the exact same.

The Mummy isnt really a highly rated film (judging by IMDB) but its a film Ive always liked. Though this film isnt exactly underrated, I recently watched Das Boot, The Directors Cut. This is one of the best films ive seen!

I feel that the following movies are underrated as well:

2010-poster01.jpg
Not looked upon as highly as "2001" because it's more of a straightfoward, easier for audiences to digest sci-fi movie. But still provides a satisfying resolution to some of the threads brought up in 2001 and in general the acting is better.

215px-Jackie_Brown70's.jpg
Jackie Brown is rarely brought up in the conversations about Tarantino I've seen, but it's far from being his worst movie (see Death Proof for that). It just had the misfortune of lacking the same class as some of his better works and being the movie to follow up Pulp Fiction.

MV5BMTM1OTI1MjE2Nl5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwMTEw
It's not underrated from a critical standpoint, but most people I know have never seen this movie and know it only as where the Hitler Rant Parody video meme originated.

MV5BMTg3MjI3NjYxM15BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwODIy
And as per tradition for these underrated film threads, I put my obligatory Dark City answer.
