What film, show or game that is not necessarily 'underated' didn't have the level of social impact it deserved.
What's the antithesis of Arrested Development, Firefly or The Big Lebowski? Those may never have 'found their audience' but over time seemed to recognised by everyone. What are the deep cuts that you liked but it feels like everyone has completely forgotten they even existed.

I really enjoyed Equilibrium (2002). Is it derivative of 1984 and Fahrenheit 451? Absolutely. But so was V for Vendetta.
It's a B level film that still packs a punch today, particularly in a dystopian era of politics. The message of learning to connect continues to be relevant in a hyper connected, but shallow relational landscape.
If I could get a version of the movie with the swish sounds removed then it'd be 10/10. I love that movie
not without incident.
Don't forget that it's riding heavily on the cinematic style of The Matrix. Doesn't matter though, still an excellent movie, especially if you watched it as a teenager!
