that should have been split into 2 films and given more room for development.

So much happened it was kinda condensed and it was all worth watching..I feel like it would have worked. Id have watched anyways

I see him and think of the ex con in The Indian Runner (1991) or the hippie clothes peddler in A Walk on the Moon (1999).

He and David Morse are great together as ex-con/policeman brothers in The Indian Runner.


There are some great love scenes between he and Diane Lane in the latter.

I enjoyed that movie too. The Jamie's Got a Gun seen was awesome.

Dredd always at the top of the list for me.

Event Horizon has a fanbase now, but it was doomed to fail at the box office.

One of the most underrated movies of all time.

No one talks about it and it is incredible.

I'm not a really a LotR fan so I always think of his part as Satan in The Prophesy...he was so menacing in that role.

I always thought that movie was fantastic and never understood why it seems like everybody shits on it. The scene with the 2 gay guys at dinner with their moms when the one guy is asked to leave the table is one of the funniest things I've seen

I think it’s a movie that isn’t very good overall but has two absolutely all-time scenes, the one you mentioned and the one with Kip Pardue talking at double speed about his European travels.

Will Farrell’s Land if the Lost

My immediate go to.

Did The Other Guys get enough attention to be disqualified from this list?

World's Fastest Indian is a great little movie. Very rewarding and rewatchable.

The Nice Guys is a clever action comedy that was well written and acted. Also good on rewatch

I liked eastern promises a lot and what I think of but I guess it’s not underrated with the Oscar nom.
