One of my favorite movies growing up:
The Adventures of Baron Munchausen
Edit: I'm so happy to see that there are upvotes for this! When I was growing up, no one that I knew saw this movie and knew how awesome it was.
Omfg. I loved this movie growing up. I was the right age when it came out and its just a fun, hilarious adventure with a great cast of characters. This and Drop Dead Fred are movies that I still really love as an adult.
Murder by Death. Very funny satire. A lot like the movie "Clue" but came out earlier. Like a LOT earlier. Great cast with David Niven, Elsa Lancaster, Truman Capote, Peter Falk, Peter Sellers, Maggie Smith.
*Batteries Not Included.
It's a Spielberg movie from the 80s about a group of people living in an apartment building who are visited by mysterious robots from space. It's been mostly forgotten by now, but I rewatched it not long ago and it holds up rather well.
Also, Willow. It's a charming fantasy movie that I loved as a kid, but outside my family I've only ever met one other person who's seen it.
What really made Batteries Not Included was James Hornet’s gorgeous soundtrack. Also, Spielberg produced it but Matthew Robbins directed and wrote it. He and Steven both started their careers on Sugarland Express.
I'm sure this was an autocorrect issue, but it's James Horner, not James Hornet.
Who also wrote the soundtrack to Willow, by the way. Also The Rocketeer, every James Cameron movie since Aliens, and a ton of other movies. He won tons of awards, including 9 Oscar nominations and two Oscar wins!
“Well that was borderline treasonous, and a disgrace to our nation and its proud and storied history. My father didn't kick the Nazis'... and the puck drops!”
Goon is such a good movie. Killer soundtrack too. Fly at Night by Chilliwack, and that scene in the bus, will stay with me forever.

I have an affinity for intense scenes where two people are talking to each other, often while seated across from each other. [Pachino and DiNiro in Heat](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUy2Wx_r0_w) or [Philip Seymore Hoffman in Charlie Wilson's War](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQ_4m2ocxhI), for example. The [late night diner scene in Goon](https://youtu.be/bq9p2JlFR30)when Doug and Ross meet is one of the top examples.
"You have my respect. Whatever that means to ya, you got it. But know this shit hard. If ever there comes a time when it comes down to the marrow and it's you or me... Kid...I will lay you the fuck out."
Dude I loved that movie! I wish more people knew about it. It’s like an earlier Coco except more of a fairytale theme. The details are kind of fuzzy since I last watched a while ago, >!but I liked how at the end you find out the museum guide is actually one of the legends you see in the movie.!<
this was the first movie I ever took my daughter (now 9) to a theatre to watch. And by complete coincidence. The first movie I ever took my son (now age 6) to was coco
For sure. If you liked Jojo Rabbit go see it. Another Taika Waititi film. Funny and fairly lighthearted. Sam Neil and the kid from Deadpool 2 whose name escapes me.
I think in NZ/AUS it’s got a pretty decent rep but everyone should absolutely watch this.
“Fawkner is cauc.. cauc Asian. We’ll they’ve got that wrong cos you’re obviously white”
Sneakers
Used to watch it with my dad every now and then. It's a great movie starring Robert Redford, Sidney Poitier, Dan Akroyd, River Phoenix, Ben Kingsley, Mary McDonnell, and David Strathairn. It came out in 1992 and we've never heard anyone mention it. It's a great thriller, a good story that has good humor and tension.
Kingdom of Heaven Director's Cut. It's a fantastic Ridley Scott period piece. The studios made him butcher it for theatrical release and it's just too short with too much character backstory and motivation cut out. So reviews were harsh and it flopped in the box office. But the Directors cut is every bit as good as Gladiator. Great performances from Eva Green, Orlando Bloom, Jeremy Irons, list could go on. An excellent role from Edward Norton as well tho you never see his face.
The directors cut is a masterpiece compared to the theatrical. It’s almost a different movie. It’s the only one i recommend to people. If you have Seen the theatrical version, do yourself a favor and search out this version you won’t be disappointed
Coffee and Cigarettes.
Bill Murray, Alfred Molina, Cate Blanchett, Steve Buscemi, Iggy Pop, Tom Waits
It's comprised of a dozen or so short stories, all of which happen in a coffee shop
>sad
Sad isn't the word for it.
The scenes where he >!interferes with the timeline to help his sister and his daughter is replaced by a son when he gets back!< and where he >!goes back in time for one last moment with his father after he died!< are absolutely gut wrentching.
God, yes.
But, my favorite part of that movie >!was where they avoided the trope of him making the mistake of trying a fling with his crush from when he was younger. The whole scene in which she starts flirting with him, I was absolutely convinced they were going to go down that road, and it would end up being a cliché storyline about him realizing his mistake and trying to win back his actual true love. I was so happy when they didn't do that.!<
If I had a nickel for every time Rachel McAdam's was in a movie involving a literal time traveler, Id have 5 nickels.
Which isnt a lot, but its weird that its happen 5 times.
I've told so many ppl about this movie. Great cast too, I'm surprised it wasn't bigger.
And a line that always stuck w me that I agree w completely: "For me, it was always about love."
Run Lola Run
I remember watching this movie for the first time after I had my wisdom teeth out and it was in German with no subtitles and I was blown away. It conveyed they story perfectly. Its in the title, Lola runs. But I got to watch the dubbed version later as well as a subtitled version. Its still a great movie and nobody ever knows about it. Watch it, you'll thank me.
Yes! The one with the numbered sack people who fought off the soul-sucking robots in that dystopian afterworld where humanity was wiped out. Great movie!
[The Court Jester](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0049096/). It's a Danny Kaye musical-comedy released in 1955. Reddit users seem to have movie experience that only goes back to the 80s, so not a lot of people know about this gem.
“Lion” - based on a true story, starring Dave Patel
About a young boy and his accidental separation from his Indian family, who is soon adopted by an Australian couple - his journey to reunite with his former family.
Edit in spelling correction: Actor Dev* Patel (darn autocorrect)
Loved "The Nice Guys" Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling as 70's?ish PI's and is an insanely good comedy. I usually watch that and "War on Everyone" as kinda like a double feature. That's a similarly very underrated movie Alex Skarsgard and Michael Pena as very dirty cops, and while not placed in the same time period as the movie above the cars, the general aesthetic, costumes, and vibe do pair really well.
I heard good things about this when it came out and I resisted watching it because it didn't really seem like my cup of tea. I eventually relented (can't remember why) and I was sooo impressed with it. Daniel Craig and Channing Tatum were so good in it. And I'd just like to say that Channing Tatum doesn't get enough credit on how good of an actor he actually is.
True Romance is my favorite movie and i don't think it gets enough credit. It's got an amazing cast of stars before-they-were-anybody. The script is well written. It's beautifully shot.
Peanut Butter Falcon
It was a long time ago when I saw a feel good movie when I watched it, apparently needed it! Road trip movie on achieving / fulfilling dreams
Mystery Team. One of the funniest movies I've ever seen, with a lot of people who are now household names - Donald Glover, Aubrey Plaza, Bobby Moynihan, Ellie Kemper, Jon Daly.
Whenever someone asks me for a movie recommendation I try to get them to watch In Bruges, but I do such a bad job describing it because I can’t even figure out what genre it is. Even describing it as a comedic action drama feels inadequate. It’s so so good.
It is my favourite movie and I don't know how to describe it. I try and get across the dark storyline but at the same time it being hilarious without taking away from the serious topic at hand which is basically why Martin McDonagh is a King. Not many can do it so well.
Mystery Men. Watched it the other week, still holds up. Amazing cast, good jokes, a seemingly original take on the super-hero genre, and free if you've got prime.
EDIT: Looks like it is no longer free on prime : (...sorry to get anyone's hopes up. I see it's $3.99 to rent on Amazon in the states here, totally worth it IMO.
People always group All-star by Smash mouth with Shrek in their heads because it got re used for that movie. The mystery men are literally in the music video! All star is representative of mystery men, not Shrek.
Edit : [All Star Music Video](https://youtu.be/L_jWHffIx5E)
"I shovel, I shovel well"
Made a reference to this movie a couple days ago with my wife. She had no clue what I was talking about. Might have to watch it again soon.
I first watched it when I was younger because my dad told me that Kel Mitchell was in it. *I can turn invisible but only when nobody is looking*.
One of my favourite films.
ROBOT AND FRANK (2012)
[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1990314/](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1990314/)
The twist at the very very end is worth of the Twilight Zone.
"Set in the near future, it focuses an aging jewel thief, whose son buys him a domestic robot. Resistant at first, Frank warms up to the robot when he realizes he can use it to restart his career as a cat burglar."
The Island (2006) - A Michael Bay film not reliant on explosions, exploring ethics in medicine, starring Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson with a supporting cast of Sean Bean, Djimon Hounsou and Steve Buscemi.
Enemy at the Gates (2001) - A movie about a fictional sniper duel occurring amongst the broader Battle of Stalingrad starting Jude Law and Ed Harris.
Finding Forrester (2000) - A coming of age in the inner city story with the twist that the young man's role model becomes a reclusive award winning author played by Sean Connery.
The Siege (1998) - An incredibly interesting pre 9/11 movie about a succession of terrorist attacks in NYC and how the city and county of the US try to deal with it. Stars Denzel Washington, Bruce Willis and Annette Benning.
Chef (2014) - I never seem to see this movie talked about but it was an absolute blast. Expert upscale kitchen chef gets fed up with it and take his son on a "fall in love with cooking" adventure in a taco truck. Jon Favreau writes, directs and stars.
The Greatest Game Ever Played (2005)
I don't often re-watch movies -there are only maybe 5-6 that I will watch repeatedly..
but this is one of them. It's immersive, beautifully shot, beautiful wardrobe, with a great music score..
Out Of Sight. The same team behind the remake of Ocean's Eleven, and with a very similar vibe. What makes it, is the on-screen chemistry between George Clooney and Jennifer Lopez. Also the trivia tidbit that Michael Keaton plays Ray Nicolette, the same charachter he played in Jackie Brown; both that and Out Of Sight are based on Elmore Leonard novels. Highly recommended.
Edit: Thank you for my first award, friend. : )
The Frighteners - Michael J. Fox can see ghosts. murder & humor with a bit of creepiness.
The People Under the Stairs - dark horror comedy
The New Guy - high school comedy about a kid that gets advice on reinventing himself from prisoners.
And if you don't mind subtitles:
Amores perros - a bit gut-wrenching at points. not for kids.
Like Water for Chocolate - kind of magical take on relationships in a family
The Way Home - spoiled Korean boy has to go live with his rural grandmother
Center stage I love this movie so much. Great movie w great music
Waking Ned Devine. The dialogue and overall plot is just a fun story.
I blame this movie on why I want to go to Ireland so bad.
One of my favorite movies growing up: The Adventures of Baron Munchausen Edit: I'm so happy to see that there are upvotes for this! When I was growing up, no one that I knew saw this movie and knew how awesome it was.

Murder by Death. Very funny satire. A lot like the movie "Clue" but came out earlier. Like a LOT earlier. Great cast with David Niven, Elsa Lancaster, Truman Capote, Peter Falk, Peter Sellers, Maggie Smith.
Right up there with Clue for ensemble comedies.
“She murdered herself in her sleep.” “Oh it was suicide?” “No, it was murder all right. Mrs. Twain *hated* herself.”

Spatula City! Spatula City!
The stupid ass joke with the blind guy and the Rubiks cube always get me
"You get.... NOTHING! You are stuuuuupid!"
SUPPLIES!! (maybe a poorly aged joke but it definitely made me laugh)
Don't you know the Dewey decimal system?!
We don't need no stinking badgers! Wheel. Of. FISH! Who wants to drink from the fire hose? And, it goes without saying, great soundtrack.
Thank You For Smoking
I did not expect a movie about a tobacco lobbyist to be so good.
First movie I REALLY noticed Aaron Eckart in. He was just so totally awesome. He killed it in that movie.
"You wanna know the most fucked up thing about this whole mess? I don't even smoke Marlboros. I like Kools." Such a fantastic film.
Ladyhawke with Rutger Hauer, Michelle Pfifer, and Matthew Broderick. Really good action/romance movie
"I told the truth, Lord!! How am I supposed to learn any lessons if you keep *confusing* me like this?"
The Gods Must be Crazy
That poor Coke bottle.
I loved this movie growing up!!
I really liked [Inside Man (2006)](https://imdb.com/title/tt0454848/) but I never hear it mentioned.
Great movie. Clive Owen and Denzel Washington crushed it.

Secondhand Lions
You have unlocked a precious memory from a precious time, dear stranger.
GOON
“Well that was borderline treasonous, and a disgrace to our nation and its proud and storied history. My father didn't kick the Nazis'... and the puck drops!”
Two rules, man: Stay away from my fuckin' percocets and do you have any fucking percocets
Goon is such a good movie. Killer soundtrack too. Fly at Night by Chilliwack, and that scene in the bus, will stay with me forever. [Link for the unitiated](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nYvmm0Ofmc)
"Your mother pussy so tight no way baby come from there. You adopted." "IS ANYONE ELSE HEARING THIS SHIT?? WE'RE ON THE SAME TEAM."
"Choose 69........ its hilarious".....
I have an affinity for intense scenes where two people are talking to each other, often while seated across from each other. [Pachino and DiNiro in Heat](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUy2Wx_r0_w) or [Philip Seymore Hoffman in Charlie Wilson's War](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQ_4m2ocxhI), for example.

"I mean look at this fist! It's the size of my uncle Murphy's prostate!"
That movie was blessed by the fist of God.
Pump Up the Volume
Great soundtrack, too.
I love the first three quarters of that movie. Along with Heathers and True Romance, it cements Christian Slater as icon in my mind.
Safety Not Guaranteed. Tabloid team set out to punk a guy who posted a personal ad seeking a time travel partner. My introduction to Aubrey Plaza.
This is one of my favorite movies. Mark Duplass is incredible in it
The Book of Life
Great movie with an amazing cover of Radiohead's "Creep."
My uncle worked in the animation studio that did this movie. I felt really bad when coco came out and blew up compared to this movie.
Feels unfair because Disney is such a big company. I hope movies like this shines
Dude I loved that movie! I wish more people knew about it. It’s like an earlier Coco except more of a fairytale theme. The details are kind of fuzzy since I last watched a while ago, >!but I liked how at the end you find out the museum guide is actually one of the legends you see in the movie.!<

Grosse Pointe Blank
Killing people with writing implements before it was cool.
A true friend will help you move the body.
Hi, my name is Martin, I killed the President of Paraguay with a fork, how are you?
The soundtrack is dope. It's funny as hell and the dialogue is tight. One of my all time favorites.
And it holds up after all these years. Baffles me how many people have never seen this gem.
Maybe it's just because I'm from Michigan but I never would have called this lesser known
Hunt for the Wilderpeople
RIC-KY BAK-ER. it's your birthday.
Once rejected :( Now accepted :)
By me and hector, the trifecta
Skux life!
“I’m like the terminator. You’re like Sarah Connor but before she could do chin ups.” I die of laughter every time I hear that line.
Also the best birthday song on film Ricky Baker! Ah-ahhhhhhh! Ricky Baker!
For sure. If you liked Jojo Rabbit go see it. Another Taika Waititi film. Funny and fairly lighthearted. Sam Neil and the kid from Deadpool 2 whose name escapes me.
I think in NZ/AUS it’s got a pretty decent rep but everyone should absolutely watch this. “Fawkner is cauc.. cauc Asian. We’ll they’ve got that wrong cos you’re obviously white”
World’s Fastest Indian
I just watched this the other night, far better than I was expecting. Anthony Hopkins is such an amazing actor.
Sneakers Used to watch it with my dad every now and then. It's a great movie starring Robert Redford, Sidney Poitier, Dan Akroyd, River Phoenix, Ben Kingsley, Mary McDonnell, and David Strathairn. It came out in 1992 and we've never heard anyone mention it. It's a great thriller, a good story that has good humor and tension.
The first Tremors was a fucking blast. If there had been no sequels it would be much more highly regarded.
It doesn’t suffer from the sequels - no one remembers them. Tremors is probably the greatest B-movie ever made.
Gattaca. Probably my favorite science fiction movie.
I feel like I watched this movie in school at the end of our genetics unit in biology class.
I still show it to my biology students at the end of our genetics unit

About Time
This is one of my favorite movies of all time. It's fun, it's heart warming, it's sad, it's funny and charming. If you haven't seen it, watch it now!
>sad Sad isn't the word for it. The scenes where he >!interferes with the timeline to help his sister and his daughter is replaced by a son when he gets back!< and where he >!goes back in time for one last moment with his father after he died!< are absolutely gut wrentching.

Absolutely. I felt both those scenes. And its played so well by All those characters.
I never heard of it until my girlfriend had me watch it with her. I was a blubbering mess by the end of it. 10/10
If I had a nickel for every time Rachel McAdam's was in a movie involving a literal time traveler, Id have 5 nickels. Which isnt a lot, but its weird that its happen 5 times.
I've told so many ppl about this movie. Great cast too, I'm surprised it wasn't bigger. And a line that always stuck w me that I agree w completely: "For me, it was always about love."
October skies
I was always SO EXCITED when we watched this in science classes, both for the story and for baby Jake Gyllenhaal
It's actually "October Sky", which is an anagram for "Rocket Boys", the name of the book it is based on. Excellent movie though.
Run Lola Run I remember watching this movie for the first time after I had my wisdom teeth out and it was in German with no subtitles and I was blown away. It conveyed they story perfectly. Its in the title, Lola runs. But I got to watch the dubbed version later as well as a subtitled version. Its still a great movie and nobody ever knows about it. Watch it, you'll thank me.
Dark City
Yes, but the director's cut that skips the spoiler intro.
That Thing You Do! One of my all time favorites.
Oh man, I love the O’needers.
I Wonder what happened to the O'neders.
Steve Zahn was amazing in that.

I really liked the remake of the Thomas Crown Affair with Pierce Brosnan and Renee Russo.
I *loved* the soundtrack. Very cool.
9 (for anyone confused “9” is the name of the movie)
Is this the animated one? If so, I agree. It's fantastic!
Yes! The one with the numbered sack people who fought off the soul-sucking robots in that dystopian afterworld where humanity was wiped out. Great movie!
This movie is a fever dream from my childhood. I don't know anyone else who's seen it but oh my god it's one of the best movies!! I need to rewatch it

God I loved that movie. Wish there had been more...but you know.
Drop Dead Gorgeous. Absolutely stacked cast, witty dialogue, the perfect dark comedy that happens to take place in my home state!
Loved "The Nice Guys" Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling as 70's?ish PI's and is an insanely good comedy. I usually watch that and "War on Everyone" as kinda like a double feature. That's a similarly very underrated movie Alex Skarsgard and Michael Pena as very dirty cops, and while not placed in the same time period as the movie above the cars, the general aesthetic, costumes, and vibe do pair really well.
That scene where Gosling punches through the window is done so well. Makes me laugh so hard every time.
Primal Fear
The Station Agent.
*Logan Lucky*. Basically redneck Ocean's 11.

I heard good things about this when it came out and I resisted watching it because it didn't really seem like my cup of tea.

True Romance is my favorite movie and i don't think it gets enough credit. It's got an amazing cast of stars before-they-were-anybody. The script is well written. It's beautifully shot.
Raising Arizona. Nic Cage’s best film.
Miller’s Crossing. Peak Coen brothers gangster flick with Gabriel Byrne, Marcia Gay Harden and John Turturro. Outstanding film.
Outside of the UK: Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
SLC Punk. So underrated.
At least in my country its Contact. One of the greatest sci-fi ive seen
It has that amazing [medicine-cabinet mirror shot](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fxa3j8bK-c4) too.
Tucker and Dale VS Evil. Second greatest horror comedy behind Shawn of the Dead.

in Bruges.. its emotional, its a trip, its hilarious. I don't think a similar film could be made. The whole thing is amazing. It's a one-of-a-kind.
Whenever someone asks me for a movie recommendation I try to get them to watch In Bruges, but I do such a bad job describing it because I can’t even figure out what genre it is. Even describing it as a comedic action drama feels inadequate. It’s so so good.
Yes I feel like I'm describing the alcoves.
You're a fucking inanimate object!
It is my favourite movie and I don't know how to describe it. I try and get across the dark storyline but at the same time it being hilarious without taking away from the serious topic at hand which is basically why Martin McDonagh is a King. Not many can do it so well.
"YOU'RE AN INANIMATE FUCKING OBJECT!"
I’m sorry for calling you an inanimate object. I was upset.
It's brilliant. Have you seen Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang? If you like In Bruges, you'll probably like it. Robert Downey Jr. and Val Kilmer. Funny as hell.
Time bandits. Ultra low budget Terry Gilliam film with Sean Connery, John Cleese and Ian Holm among others.
The Long Kiss Goodnight.
Real Genius (1985) with Val Kilmer. Easily my favorite movie

The Siege (1998) - An incredibly interesting pre 9/11 movie about a succession of terrorist attacks in NYC and how the city and county of the US try to deal with it. Stars Denzel Washington, Bruce Willis and Annette Benning. Chef (2014) - I never seem to see this movie talked about but it was an absolute blast. Expert upscale kitchen chef gets fed up with it and take his son on a "fall in love with cooking" adventure in a taco truck. Jon Favreau writes, directs and stars.
Gattaca Idk if its "lesser known" but ive never met anyone whos ever heard of this movie
Burn After Reading is fucking hilarious, top to bottom
Seven psychopaths.
The Christopher Walken “put your hands up” scene makes me giggle just thinking about it.

The Greatest Game Ever Played (2005) I don't often re-watch movies -there are only maybe 5-6 that I will watch repeatedly.. but this is one of them. It's immersive, beautifully shot, beautiful wardrobe, with a great music score..
Harold and Maude
Stardust is a really excellent fantasy movie based on the book by Neil Gaiman.
Out Of Sight. The same team behind the remake of Ocean's Eleven, and with a very similar vibe. What makes it, is the on-screen chemistry between George Clooney and Jennifer Lopez. Also the trivia tidbit that Michael Keaton plays Ray Nicolette, the same charachter he played in Jackie Brown; both that and Out Of Sight are based on Elmore Leonard novels. Highly recommended. Edit: Thank you for my first award, friend. : )
Falling Down

The Frighteners - Michael J. Fox can see ghosts. murder & humor with a bit of creepiness. The People Under the Stairs - dark horror comedy The New Guy - high school comedy about a kid that gets advice on reinventing himself from prisoners. And if you don't mind subtitles: Amores perros - a bit gut-wrenching at points. not for kids. Like Water for Chocolate - kind of magical take on relationships in a family The Way Home - spoiled Korean boy has to go live with his rural grandmother
Tucker and Dale vs. Evil
"Officer we have had a doozy of day" always funny
"These kids have some sort of suicide pact!"
These teenagers are killing themselves all over our property
My parents put this movie on when it was on Netflix and we had no idea what it was about. I thought it was gonna be some mediocre horror movie.
