Underrated Gems

[Bleed The Freak]

Today's gem for me has to be one of Eddie Murphy's most underrated roles has to be Bowfinger. 1999

His dual role was hilarious on both sides.

Scene was classic

 

[Black Man of the Nile]

Shutter Island is an underrated masterpiece to me

It had the GOAT plot twist too

 

[Bleed The Freak]

My personal favorite

Dark City

 

[Lootpack]

The scene where Phillip Seymour Hoffman’s and Barry Pepper’s characters overlook the site of ground zero gets me everytime. How did David Benioff go from helming this screenplay to co-writing the script of the Game of Thrones finale?

 

[Bleed The Freak]

One of the best ever.

 

[Reptile]

 

[Grizzly]

 

[StraxStrax]

I think it's called Uncut Gems.

[LOST IN THE SAUCE]

In Bruges
The promo for the movie is insanely deceptive, to the point where I had to search for an alternative cover to not give the wrong idea. Judging by the trailer it seems like they were trying to sell it like a Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels knockoff, but it's not that at all. It's a black comedy and one of my favorite movies of all time. Definitely top 3. I'm a big fan of Martin McDonagh in general, but this is his best film. Don't watch the trailer, don't look at the posters, just watch the movie. It's somber, but darkly hilarious and has such a tightly written script with some deeper themes if you're willing to scratch the surface a bit. It might also be Colin Farrell's best role.

Martin McDonagh's 3 Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri is also an underrated gem. He's great at writing dark comedy.
