Best movie No one has heard Of

[Buzzman]

The famous gun plot twist in Equilibrium was a major plot hole.

[Houston]

Before Terminator, The Machinist, and the Batman movies, Mr. Bale made a movie about kung-fu with guns.

Said movie also held a message about what happens when Church and State mix.

Yeah, basically a modern update of the Saleem Witch Trials

Not sure if these should be on the list but oh well...

I hadn't seen any previews for this or anything, never even heard of it until my mom got it on bootleg.


Actually this movie was bigger than Scarface was when it first came out. It just doesn't have a cult following so hardly anyone from my generation has even heard of it.


Pretty much pause Scarface before "Say hello to my little friend", throw him in jail for a long time then release him. And this is where this movie basically starts at. Like I said, older generations love this movie and know about it but not younger people.
What A Tribe Called Quest is to Tupac and Biggie, is what this movie is to Scarface. If that makes sense...

I want to thank you and groan you at the same time for this post. Talk to Me is definitely an under the radar movie that I love. Don Cheadle was fantastic.

On the other hand, Carlito's Way came about a decade after Scarface. Therefore, it couldn't possibly be ATCQ to Tupac & Biggie. And no, that "analogy" you tried to make, makes no sense whatsoever. It was very popular but never, at any point bigger than Scarface. It's hardly a movie no one's ever heard of. I'm willing to bet most of the "younger" generation who love Scarface have at least seen and certainly know about Carlito's Way. And let's not forget P. Diddy brought extra attention to it just a couple years ago when he made the straight-to-DVD sequel.

Yet another movie that has no business in this thread. :club:

Maybe it doesn't belong here but I'm pretty sure the average person in highschool has no idea what this movie is. You can say Scarface and everyone knows what you're talking about but hardly anyone would know Carlito's Way. I have Rise to Power on DVD lol


P.S.-Just thank me for Talk to Me and we'll forget this whole Carlito's Way thing ever happened :deal:

Ryan Gosling is in a lot of underrated movies.

That, Half Nelson, the Believer and Stay (it was alright.)

And I. Just Got Outta Jr High.

[citizenerased]

Was on TV at 2:30 am the other night, brilliant little film, probably John Hughes most unknown production.

No DVD release apparently, been searching the interwebs high and low for a torrent.

Will give many, many thanks in return for... "pointing" me in the direction from where I could aquire it - all I can find is the soundtrack.

I'm 24 and don't know anybody who hasn't heard of Carlito's Way. And Carlito's Way was not half as good as Scarface. Carlito's Way was decent, nothing special, as Dell said, definitely not worthy of being mentioned in this thread.

And I've never seen Rise to Power and I never plan to. Looks fucking shitty.

[Palooza]

Carlito's Way feels like a poor man's Scarface.

[Houston]

lol I never said it was better than Scarface, I just looked at how much the 2 films gross and for some reason I thought that I saw that Carlito's Way made more, meaning it was more popular at the time of it's release.

Like I said maybe it doesn't belong in this thread but you can't tell me that the film is popular among the younger generation(high school kids).

[NAHSTE]

I like Carlito's Way, but everyone's fucking heard of that, terrible mention in this thread.
