if you like that kind of stuff and like low budget independant movies....check out Bullethead. I can't find it on dvd, but you can find vhs copies on ebay for a dollar.

"Silent Running". Sci-Fi flick where Bruce Dern actually had to act.
Kinda sappy, but good story. I reccomend. |

"Love and a .45", "Flypaper", and "Things to do in Denver when you're dead" are a few good ones that come to mind.

I have always liked "Things to do in Denver When You're Dead." Violent, yet touching with a top notch cast. "Truth or Consequences, N.M." directed by Kiefer Sutherland is also a pretty good movie you can find if you look around. |

For me:
Comedy: So I married an axe murderer. Mike Myers before he got on your nerves. Action: Snatch, 3000 miles to graceland (killer shootout in casino and it gets violent quick) and True Romance(nice and violent) Fighting film: You all hate him but he did some badass ass-kicking in his prime. Who is it you ask? Bloodsport. One of the best karate movies but since it's Jean Claude it get's no respect. |

I doubt if anyone has ever seen it, but "Twice Upon A Time" was great.
Animated flick about nightmare bombs and all-purpose-animals. Can't find it on DVD and if you have it DVD I"ll give you $1,000,000 for it. |

Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man is a classic. Some all time great lines in that movie. " My daddy used to tell me; before he left this shitty world; you never chase buses or women cause you'll always get left behind." Or "... ya squeeze the trigger Harley ya don't yank it. Its NOT your dick"

underrated movies:
Saints and Soldiers - an excellent WWII movie. The ending seemed like a stretch, but some of the events are based on real occurances. Mean Creek - a different, but well done 'teen' flick. Super Size Me - you may never eat at McDonalds again

Spartan. Directed by David Mamet. Val Kilmer plays a Delta Force operator tasked with rescuing the President's daughter from kidnappers before the media realizes she is nowhere to be found. Former Delta Force founding member Eric Haney was a consultant for the film, and Kilmer modeled his character after him. Ultra-realistic gun handling and shootouts. I think it is right up there with Heat and Way of the Gun, except on a much smaller budget. Definitely worth seeing. |

The Final Option-portrayal of the SAS raid on the Iranian Embassy, y es? if that was the flick I'm thinking that was a good flick...
Ronin..underrated?Good flick... Open Range, classic Duval (yeah yeah it had Costner i know) but the whole thing of 'we're going to make it right or die trying' is classic Americana Bravo Two Zero was a good flick.. The Big Hit..gotta agree, campy but was ment to be ..loved the tool bench in his garage! Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man? CLASSIC>.my wife groans every time I pull that one out..i end up on the back TV playing it on the Xbox... |

I LOVE the Final Option. It's gets a little slow with the intrigue until you get to the last 15 minutes when the SAS does their thing. It's by far one of the best action sequences I've ever seen. I'd love to get it on DVD, but even VHS would make me happy. Some of my other favorites you might have missed: The Wind and the Lion The Big Hit The Lighthorsemen Gallipoli The Seige of Firebase Gloria Three Days in the Valley |

That's a favorite of mine. Drowning Mona is a dark comedy, set in upstate NY, with an all star cast that you just don't hear about. But it leaves me in stitches everytime. BTW, I think I know where "the company Yugo" came from.  I've never seen The Final Option. Not one damn video store around here has ever had it, and it didn't hit the theatre here either. I've always thought it sounded like one I would like. I love; The Princess Bride Rollerball with James Caan any of the Jay and Silent Bob movies, except I haven't seen Mallrats - there again, damn video stores |

Most of the ones already listed of course, especially Open Range, Fight Club, Ronan, & Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man (I didn't think anyone else in the world saw The Seven Faces Of Dr Lao!).
Long Riders Bicentennial Man Glengarry Glen Ross Sling Blade Go Way Of the Gun The Mexican (okay, quit laughing! I thought it was funny as hell!) The Limey (saw it twice before I realized it was a pretty good movie) Zero Effect Mr. Roberts The Devil's Advocate .......................................... |
