What Dreams May Come

I don't usually hear people talking about it, so that's what makes me assume it's underrated.  This is a very well done film.

not to nit pick, but I think you can only consider a few of those as "underrated"...

Aguirre, McCabe & Mrs. Miller, Nashville, The Sweet Hereafter, Man Bites Dog, Network, The Road Warrior, and Chinatown are all considered pretty respectable films that are commonly discussed/dissected in film classes and have been majorly celebrated by many esteemed critics...  

The Mosquito Coast, Tender Mercies, House of Games, Last of the Mohicans, and the Color of Money are commonly recognized/given their proper due (although not as much as the former list) as well.  All are definitely good flicks though...

This definitely re-iterates the question of what qualifies a film as underrated...
