These are movies that I really enjoyed, find under appreciated, and are worth a look. They may have done well in theaters initially but then forgotten, or done poorly in theaters but then found an audience later. Either way, this page is dedicated to those hidden gems.
I don’t do a grading system (ie A to F scale) or a star numbering system, I just give my opinion on whether something is worth seeing or not.
Each review will be linked to the title below.
