Not that its underrated (7/10 IMDB and 83% RT), but I feel like it hasn't gotten much attention since its 2011 release. So again not underrated...more so underappreciated. 


Feel like it was also the time MM decided to stop doing shitty chick flicks/coasting and start using his acting ability.

"The Town" is a movie I don't see discussed much but one I always watch if it's on.

RocknRolla is one of my all time favorites and im surprised more people havent heard of it.

there was supposed to be a sequel but too many of the characters got super famous.

I passed by this movie at blockbuster numerous times. My wife brought it home one night and it's easily best movie I seen in a long time.

Basically anything with Brendan Gleeson:


Calvary, The Guard, In Bruges, Song of the Sea. If we go back a little further, 28 Days Later was well made long before Hollywood was oversaturated with zombie stuff.


Right as usual, Jack

Smokin Aces turns 10 years old this year.

It deserves to be mentioned. Awesome movie. Panned by critics because most critics are cynical assholes.

Cool action sequences, crazy arse characters, solid twist ending, good performances by most people.

Ray Liotta
Jeremy Piven
Andy Garcia
Chris Pine
Ben Affleck
Tommy Flanagan
Curtis Armstrong
Jason Bateman
Ryan Reynolds

Eastern Promises is a great answer. Is The Lives Of Others underrated?

A lot of great mentions already...

Assassination of Jesse James
Calvary
Apocalypto
Gone Baby Gone
Eastern Promises
Edge of Tomorrow
Children of Men

These immediately came to mind for me.


I'd add:
Mud
13 Assassins
Source Code
Take Shelter
The Brothers Bloom

I am going to go with Michael Clayton.

Michael Clayton is a great movie, but I think it's appropriately rated. The other two you mentioned could be considered underrated in some respects. I think people often fail to appreciate (or, just take for granted) the brilliance of There Will Be Blood and No Country for Old Men. IMO, they're two of the best movies of all time.
