Something underrated or less well known, that you think is worth a watch.

My go:

2010

The 1984 follow up to the undisputed Kubrick classic 2001. It suffers by comparison to the first film but I have a real soft spot for it. It was one of the first proper sci fi films I ever saw, and it has a real humanity and depth to it.

Not everyone agrees with the idea of explaining so much of what went on in the first film, or whether to have a sequel at all, but I think it stands on its own as a worthy film.

A great supporting cast including Helen Mirren and John Lithgow, and the late great Roy Scheider in the lead giving the film some real oomph.

Any film with Rob Schneider in.

Amazing Mr Blunden - fantastic tale to watch with the kids on a Sundsy pm.
Sideways - not to watch with the kids.
Midnight Run - De Niro CAN do comedy.
Hell and High Water - Jeff Bridges' finest hour?
La Haine - superb, super-gritty disaffected urban youth film.
Somebody Up There Likes Me - Paul Newman is magnificent.

Midnight run is one of the best feel good buddy films
