Underrated.


Why is it that every Gene Hackman American Classic is criminally underrated on the IMDB? Check out ratings for French Connection, The Conversation, Scarecrow, and this awesome film. Then compare them with overrated tripe like Forrest Gump and The Dark Knight; ridiculous.

I love MB, so whether it's underrated or overrated means nothing to me. I've seen it at least a dozen times since '88, and still find it to be a powerful film.

Great news, too: Twilight Time is releasing it on Blu-ray May 12.

Brilliant news re Blu-ray!! Hope there some nice extras as well.

It is one of my all-time favorite movies. I watched it when i was a sophomore, it's been 7 years now but i still remember the movie like i saw it yesterday.

Was doing a module on Slavery in the USA, and my history lecturer recommended this to us.

Hate is baggage. Life is too short to be pissed off all the time

I personally, would rate it a 9 out of 10, but since when does a rating of 7.8 make it underrated?

I just this movie today. It was an interesting great movie. It deserved a Best Picture nomination.
