Yes! I used to watch Real Men back in the day. Why is this one not on any streaming networks?

one of my favorite movies of all time
Mine too. It has everything. Action, love story, office humor over the phone, and a great cast.

Add Grandma's Boy (2006) to the list.

Mainstream movies that don’t get a lot of love for whatever reason and you think they are really good.
Trapped (1992) - with Ice Cube, Ice-T, Bill Paxton, William Sadler; it's about some guys trying to recover hidden gold in a burned out tenement and the locals see them and a life and death battle ensues.

Enemy at the Gates (2001) - with Jude Law, Rachel Weisz, Ed Harris, Joseph Finnes, Bob Hoskins. About snipers during the siege of Stalingrad in WW II.

Martin Scorsese has a small role a the head of the show's sponser. Great film.

I know that it’s highly thought of, but I still believe that L.A. Confidential is criminally underrated. It’s a perfect film.

on that note, watched the Insider last night, and that's the apex of "bad corporate behavior" movies, imho. killer acting all around

I think there are fans here, but I've always considered Silverado underrated. Maybe because it was from the 80s when Westerns were box office losers, but I think it should be up there with the greatest Westerns ever.


Literally showed Silverado to my 13 year old son last night and he loved it.

Great movie and damn fine western.
