Have not read whole thread but a GREAT film that few know of is:

MARY AND MAX

a clay animation, which is very funny, deep and not really for kids.

Another MUST SEE from Christopher Nolan is:

MEMENTO

Rec: Spanish horror, quarantine is the hollywood remake but not nearly as good
Los Cronocrímenes (Time Crimes): Verry good thriller/sci-fi worth your time, check it out!
Old Men in New Cars: Danish movie, black comedy. Same style that of Lock stock/Snatch and just as good IMO!
Ghosts of Mars: good sci-fi/comedy/action
Battle Royal: Japanese movie action/thriller
Groundhog Day: romantic/comedy (my hate genre) but this one is really good!

Just to name a few i don't think you have seen, but should have!


I just watched Los Cronocrimes (Timecrimes) and it was an awesome movie (Though I have to admit that I didn't watch it because you recommended it, but me just stumbling upon it somehow ^^). It's a lot of things in one a bit of Horror/Sci-Fi and also a little bit of Dark Humor. This movie sure is worth your time and if you're looking for a hidden gem and you're not afraid of watching foreign movies then you should definitly watch this one.

Not that "hidden" but I think it's underrated.



hey i saw you like the quiet earth movie in hidden gems. i like it too. you should try watching K-PAX and the old british series Survivors and The Last Train (both about post-apocalypse/isolation). you might also like Threads (old british).

wondering if you can recommend me anything else :D

I don't know of this is a hidden gem, but I thought it was actually really funny (for an Adam Sandler movie).

beware, if you dont know who miike is, or what kind of movies he makes, better check first. (gory and disturbing violence)

This! One of my all time favourites.

Any fan of psychological horror/thriller needs to watch Audition (Odishon). Takashi Miike considers it his masterpiece and rightly so. It's reasonably famous if you're in to Japanese films, but I'm assuming most people here aren't so I think it qualifies as a hidden gem within a sea of absolutely horrendous "Horror" movies that we're subjected to in the West. You don't have to be an "otaku" or japanophile to enjoy it and if you don't like subtitles ... get over it \;D/

It starts off very slow (deliberately) so a lot of people miss out on its greatness by simply turning it off halfway through the movie. Don't, and you'll be richly rewarded. If you're squeamish there might be some parts where you'll have to close your eyes.

Memento's greatness can not be denied. A great movie starring Robert Downey, Jr. is Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. The writing is absolutely superb.

Dunno if it is a hidden gem, but the last thing that really impressed me was ''A Single Man'' by Tom Ford. A very picturesque, powerful film.
currently rooting for myself.

I saw The Last 3 Days the other day with Rusty Crowe and it was surprisingly good! Not a brilliant movie, but quite well done and entertaining.

I'm really surprised to see this here. This was widely considered a fiasco in France, and I personnally consider this one of the worst movies I've ever seen ^^

I guess we all have different tastes!

I wouldn't recommend anything that's recent and French, honestly. Our film industry is a complete mess, stuck between the pretentious "authors" who know they can sell any rubbish to blind elitists and the cynical directors who think popular cinema is just an easy way to make money.

There are some exceptions though, like "A prophet" or "The beat that my heart skipped".

If you want really good european films, better look for spanish directors! A very good, hidden gem I saw recently:

A group of people are interviewing for a key position in a big firm, where the tests are... I'll just say unconventional and cruel, to not spoil it. Great acting and dialogues, intriguing plot, I recommend it.

I just saw this one and it was really good stuff. It is this specific genre films that I like a lot. A normal person looses a loved one and then uses arbitrary law. You get a decent director, a script with the same old plot and a Hollywood Star that is not necessarily an action hero.

A classic would be Charles Bronson in Death Wish:

Jodie Foster in The Brave One:

and Kevin Bacon in Death Sentence:

are newer ones.

A bit different plot, but still a great one man army film is Taken with Liam Neeson:

I really like Foster and Cane in these roles, because usually they play the good shepherds. This can be risky and bad for their image.


Loved Death Sentence when I watched it a while ago, and I've rewatched Taken sooo many times :D Going to check out the other ones asap

Dunno if its actually a french production but, L'Auberge Espagnole was a surprisingly good movie imo.

It also has a sequel: Russian Dolls - and i think they were not mentioned before!

Clearly the greatest gangster movie ever and arguably Hoskins' finest hour, it's one of the best kept secrets of British cinema. Awesome soundtrack as well:
