Come on, great movies go unnoticed or underappreciated all the time for myriad reasons

Don't sleep on Marshawn Lynch, player!

He's in the movie! And he's amazing!

Bottoms is so great. I loved it. Had such a great time. There is a little inconsistency of tone but it's a very small issue.

I've never heard of it, but it's Gene Hackman and Robert Redford, so fuck it - it's gotta be good

I get up for movies like this (I’ve also never heard of it). Then I remember that if it was any good I probably would’ve heard about it hundreds of times by now and it usually plays out that way. Good luck though, let us know.

My wife loves this movie. I’m sure it’s in her top ten movies of the past decade. We’re watching it for the second time now.

It's a great movie.

It was ok. Some funny parts. I didn't mind The Back to the Future talk and stuff. I liked all the Batmans, Supermans, etc. too. Still don't understand how/why Zod came back....
