So I just got done watching Annapolis, which not a lot of people liked, BUT I must have been in the mood because I kinda liked it. Now I am jonesin for some more underdog movies. What are your favorite underdog movies or any underdog movies you might know of?

The 13th Warrior, Layer Cake, Idiocracy, Payback, Dummy, Paycheck and i'll say Inside man.

That's all I got right now.

I know this must seem stupid to say now, but Crank. When I saw the commercials for that, my first thought was, "Well this is gonna be dog shit." Wow, was I wrong.

if you wanna see an epic movie that didn't get much attention watch Kingdom of Heaven....BUT ONLY watch The Directors Cut. I saw the theatrical cut when it came out on dvd and thought it was dog shit. than when i got my PS3 i was browsing thru the blu-ray section on netflix and decided to check out The Kingdom of Heaven Directors Cut.

SOOOOO much better. i can honestly say after watching The Directors Cut that it is now one of my top movies.

Oh Payback. Definitely.

And of course, every Die Hard movie.

A Knight's Tale. That movie looked downright retarded, but goddamn it was cool.

Hmmm.... well, it depends on what you mean.

1) Underdog Movie: Movie that most people didn't enjoy but strangely enough I did. - Cube, Stranger than Fiction or The Shipping News (both of which could also fall under #2 below)

2) Underdog Movie: Movie about an underdog coming back and overcoming extraordinary odds against them - The Black Stallion, or Rudy (more serious) or The Replacements (more funny)

3) Underdog Movie: The actual underdog movie. - I didn't see it. I don't want to see it. I shall not see it. Don't make me see it.
