Now that I have read about these films, I plan to see some that I missed.

Couldnt stand Miami vice, awful, boring and all over the place. The rest were good though.

Yep. That was good. But even remotely "thinky" sci-fi is ALWAYS under rated.

I can agree with some but not all, some of the best (in my book) and underrated films are...
1. Crash
2. Motorcycle Diaries
3. Che 1 & 2
4. Meet Joe Black
5. Finding Forrester
6. Juice
7. Remember the Titansand probably a few more, but right now and forever... these are my picks...

I would believe National Treasure 2 was written by a computer designed to do little but hit plot points and plug products.
As for Quantum of Solace, the idea of taking Bolivia's water rights were taken from reality. Bechtel (the same company that has contracts in Iraq) got a shady deal to own water rights in Bolivia. They were overcharging and even tried to tax people who collected rainwater. This resulted in mass protests and the death of at least 6 people. In the end, Bechtel and its partners sued Bolivia for $25 million dollars. I will definitely have to see that flick now.

I fully agree with this,.....thought I might adjust the order a tad to sate my personal taste. Uhm, ---Except,.....Miami Vice.
Perhaps I should see it again. It might be that,...well,...I didn't expect toooo much before I saw it,....and it acquitted itself (very slightly) of my reservations,....just a bit,....nice budget for fireworks,....
But really,...... it IS still "Miami Vice". Thats like a big screen "Matlock" meets "Mod Squad" with a bit of REALLY BAD "BOND" thrown in. GAH,...for gods sake! - 2 years ago

i hear what you're saying remanns - but re: Matlock = sure, but it's like Matlock if Matlock were directed by Orson Welles! ;)

I'm sorry, but when I saw The Happening on that list I almost spit out my coffee. Then I see Miami Vice! Wow, those have to be the worst two movies of the last decade. I was embarrassed for Walburg while watching The Happening, it was so bad, he was horrible in it. It was awful. Worst movie ever created by anyone ever. And Miami Vice, indisputably the second worst movie ever made.
