I've been putting a list together of unsung movies that I like. Every one, with one exception (Cusco,Cusco), I've read bad reviews and yet I still find them interesting. In a sense, I shouldn't like them and yet I do. Here they are (in no particular order):

1. Dr. Doolittle 2 (Eddie Murphy)
2. Zoolander
3. Rocketeer
4. Cusco Cusco
5. The Cable Guy

The only rule I ask for is that you see the movie twice.

1. Dr. Doolittle 2 (Eddie Murphy)
- Liked it, was OK.
2. Zoolander
- LOVED it... still laugh when I think of the showdown!
3. Rocketeer
- Very cool movie. Very classic.
4. Cusco Cusco
- Never even heard of it?
5. The Cable Guy
- Erg? Same one I'm thinking? Jim Carrey, Ferris Bueller? LOL Ok, didn't think this was worth the cost of the film.

Interesting selection Brad. What's Cusco Cusco about?

Is Zoolander great or what? I hated it the first time I saw it though. I have changed my mind.

Cusco, Cusco is one of the best animated films I've ever seen. But you have to see it twice.

Or at least I had to.

unsung movies... i am going to have to think about this one, I am sure there are some films I like that got really bad reviews

(1)
Cable guy was great, there have been far worse comedies such as Meet the Parents and American Pie (it wasn't funny and I was watching it when drunk).
I know there are some arty type films I like that most people think are rubbish.

(2)
The film version of Batman the 60's tv show is great, so is the The Avengers film (it was silly but still watchable)

(3)Crow: City of Angels
(4)Show girls (maybe part of the fun was the fact that it was banned in Ireland, and that it wa so bad it was entertaining)
(5) Natural Born Killers (i quite enjoyed it).

I used to make phantoms I could later chase images of all that could be desired then I got tired of counting all of these blessings"h.devoto magazine
