Most Underrated COMIC BOOK movies - Blu-ray Forum

Diesel · 02-13-2009, 01:30 AM

i did a search and found a general most underrated movies forum, but i wanted to know which comic book movies people find the most underrated. Even if it is some-what to well liked, but you believe it deserves more love than it gets.

Reasons why you believe so are preferred to just the name.

AND NO HATING ON PEOPLES CHOICES WOULD BE NICE

My personal one is The Incredible Hulk (2008)
Many people think its a good movie, but it made no where near the normal comic book blockbuster movies (Iron Man, Spiderman, The Dark Knight, X-men).
Shoot, it didnt even beat Fantastic Four! (which i like in its own right)
It is a great movie for its action and story.
I loved the way they portrayed Bruce and The Hulk.
There wasn't anything about it I really didn't like.

Sure to get hammered for this one but I really liked Daredevil with the extended cut. It was true to the comics and I can always sit down and watch it anytime. Can't say that about a lot of comic adaptations.

The Punisher(With Thomas Jane)...it was such a good movie...the new one(The Punisher: War Zone) suxks

I liked the one with Thomas Jane...I haven't seen the new one (I really like the actor...but not as the punisher...I really liked him in Rome, it was a perfect character for him).

I probably like it better than most people too. V for Vendetta got my vote though.

xtop · 02-13-2009, 01:29 PM

i don't think v for vendetta is underrated. everyone knows it was a good movie

uziel5000 · 02-13-2009, 01:29 PM

Daredevil is not as bad people make it out to be. I actually though that the effect they used to represent his "vision" was spot on and realistic. I enjoyed it, especially the extended version. I think its grossly underrated.

Well the reason it was underrated was because HULK was so terrible so it kept ppl's minds away from incredible hulk. Xmen the last stand was good when i first saw it because of the action and juggy lol, but now im not a fan of it now. Daredevil was ok except for the red hair lol

Thomas Jane as the Punisher was AWESOME, i loved that movie especially the fight with The Russian

VERY true

I just wish people would have given it more of a chance, but HULK did leave a bad taste in everyones mind only five years earlier

ckent22 · 02-13-2009, 01:44 AM

I'd have to go with V For Vendetta. I love that film and I don't think it's gotten enough respect.

MountainBlu · 02-13-2009, 01:46 AM

I picked Hulk 2008 but also I think that The Crow should be mentioned. It has a cult following now but I don't think it made a ton of money.

ckent22 · 02-13-2009, 01:49 AM

The Crow may or may not have made a lot of money I am not sure, but it has definitely gotten a lot of respect. The sequels are garbage however.

thedarkangel1975 · 02-13-2009, 01:50 AM

I say The Incredible Hulk also. So many I know get The Hulk and Incredible Hulk confused.

Batman Begins. The way people fawn over The Dark Knight and with the staggering box office difference between the two, you would think Batman Begins is somehow nowhere near TDK's level in quality. But that simply isn't the case.

Oateyboat · 02-13-2009, 10:33 AM

I picked The Incredible Hulk, because of no-one liking the thought of a new 2003 Hulk.

Darkhawk9587 · 02-13-2009, 01:35 PM

The Incredible Hulk! For all the fear surround it thanks to Ang Lee's 2003 Hulk film, this did very well in the theaters. Plus, it's actually a great movie, with good acting, lots of action, and no Nick Nolte!
