I heartily approve of a lot of this list - esp Climax, Mad God, You Were Never Really Here and Horror Express - four exceptional picks those.

I finally watched it, and I was really impressed by the performances. Especially the protagonist and his psychiatrist.


Vanilla Sky has better production values, but I think I prefer Open Your Eyes.

Well, I think we have a clear winner. Going by the upvotes the posts received, the people's choice for most Underrated Movie ever is....


Top Secret!

Also, count me in as a huge fan of Abre los Ojos. Definitely superior to Vanilla Sky, which still has some strengths.
