Top 10 not so famous movies everyone should watch.

      

How many movie lovers out there??  If you feel like you’ve watched all the Hollywood hits or if you just think that there must be great movies out there that are not so very famous, well here it is. These 10 movies won’t disappoint you at all; rather they will remind you that you will never run out of good movies to watch.

1. No Country For Old Men.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
        

Set in 1980 in west texas, where the chase is on for stolen drug money, No Country For Old Men won Best Picture Oscar in 2007. This movie is not only carried by three performers at the peak of thier skills, it also functions on so many levels that its easy to lose count. Its incredibly powerful, entertaining, rich , thought-provoking and bleak. Its such a feral and odd movie that spmehow resonates louder and louder as time goes on. And impossible not to watch. There is just one word for it 'PERFECT' .

   2. Million Dollar Baby.

     One of my favorites. The film shows a relationship being shaped based on a mutual feeling between a young lady dedicated to boxing and a tempered boxing coach. Both of them miss something in their life which they find in the other one. Never hits a false note, never breaks from its melancholy, reminiscent tone. The story is well told, the performances (Swank, Eastwood and Freeman) are good and it is one of those movies that you will think about afterwards. The ending almost made me cry.

3.  A Beautiful Mind.

A beautiful mind is an American biographical drama film based on the life of John Nash, a Nobel Laureate in Economics. In this movie, John Nash was suffering from schizophrenia. Russell Crowe really shows his real talent making this film. He is one of the best actors I have ever seen. The movie is incredible. Very emotional with a beautiful story, and some really unexpected twists that I simply couldn't believe . This was by far a wonderful movie. Not only did it give the reality of the 'sane' characters, but it gave a reality to a schizophrenic that you don't even know he is one until half way through the movie. A success in every way. More movies should be this bold.

4.  One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest.

    Jack Nicholson was awarded his first of three Oscars for his performance as Randle P. McMurphy, a con trying to make his life easier by pretending he is crazy, so he can go to a mental institution, or "Cuckoo's Nest". This movie had a funny side to it but also a look at what real mental patients might go through. Jack Nicholson really played a funny part that made this movie very enjoyable. They don't make this kind of movies anymore. Every single cast is awesome. One of the best movies of all time.

5. Warrior.

     Warrior is a very different sports movie specially where the main theme of the movie is MMA, but you will be amazed that apart from MMA fights, Warrior delivers a very interesting take on relationships and how people get tried and tested in their challenging times. It is a pretty solid movie, especially when it comes to the performance of all the 3 characters - Tom Hardy, Joel Edgerton and Nick Nolte. Men’s and boys who have brothers can truly understand the point of this movie. Absolutely phenomenal film. Great performances, gripping story, and sure, while it may play into some sports movie clichés, it is so much more than that. The heart and pain exuded by the characters is felt by the audience as if it is our own. Great example of how good a sports film can be. In the end of the movie even the hardest guys will cry some tears. Go watch it if you haven’t already.  Our beloved bollywoood also very respectfully remade ‘brothers ‘ from it starring Akshay Kumar and Siddharth Malhotra which proved to be a total bore, just like  bang bang from knight and day.

6. Hell Or High Water.

    Hell or High Water, set in barren dusty lands of Texas , is a riveting heist-drama charged with intense emotions grappled in a thrilling manner. Evocative backdrop and trappings of western, it is a perfect ode to the American Classical dramas, a genre that seemed on the verge of extinction. This was probably one of the top 3 movies of 2016, and possibly the best. The script is tight, its well directed, and everyone onscreen delivers a great performance. This is almost a perfect movie, right down to the awesome final scene. The story is simple, but how they develop each narrative concept is fantastic. The intelligence of a detective, the love between two brothers, everything about the movie is flawless. The more intelligent you are, the higher the score you will give, simple as that. If you simply don’t like action movies or suspense, then maybe this movie just doesn’t have a chance with you. But otherwise, I think you’d have to try pretty hard to not enjoy it.

7.  Drive

   Drive is a movie which has a simple story, a protagonist with a pure and comprehensible motive and sheared off all superfluous plots and back stories. Even without knowing the name of the protagonist (who is simply called the Driver), the universe of the movie seems complete. Drive is paced perfectly. From a quiet steady beginning, the pace seems to rise in a crescendo and then cascade into violence, which although brutal does not seem out of keeping or even particularly shocking. Its one of the best movies of 2011 but If you're expecting Fast and Furious, you'll be surely disappointed.

8.  American Sniper.

    American Sniper is an enthralling and emotional film.  While overtly it is telling the story of Chris Kyle, Kyle is representative of the 2.5 million men and women that went to Iraq and Afghanistan at the request of their country. The editing of the film was spectacular.  You're hooked from the moment it starts with Bradley Cooper having to decide whether or not to kill a 10 year old child that may or may not have a mortar under his coat.  An incredible film that had me on the edge of my seat for the entire viewing, the fighting is extremely realistic and grim, the acting is great, and the directing by Clint Eastwood is breathtaking. A must watch for all war movie lovers.

9. Get Out.

   

    Get Out is a bizarre movie about the events that happen to a guy named Chris who goes to visit his girlfriend’s parents over a weekend. The film is brought to us by Jordan Peele of the Key and Peele fame. Peele is a funny guy and hence it is a pleasant surprise to watch a thriller coming from him. One of the most important films of 2017, so far. This movie makes the concept of modern-day racism more accessible to those who aren’t people of color. It’s deliciously tense, peppered with just the right amount of humor. It is so creepy, and at the same time hilarious in some parts. The idea was very clever and was executed well.  Do give it a watch.

10. Source Code.

  

    Source Code" is an ingenious thriller that comes billed as science fiction, although its science is preposterous. Does that matter, as long as everyone treats it with the greatest urgency? After all, space travel beyond the solar system is preposterous, and yet we couldn't do without "Star Trek." The "science" in this case is used to prop up an appealing story of a man who tries to change the past. It is one of the best movies of Jake Gyllenhaal .The story was intriguing, suspenseful and makes the central character easy to engage with. Its like a better version of Tom Cruise's 'Edge of Tomorrow'. 

    So these movies made my top 10 list which are not quite famous but are awesome. Do give it a watch whatever film you have not seen yet because believe me, not one of them will disappoint you. Also do share in the comments whatever movie you like the most which others dont know about.
