2007 Movies That Are Being Overlooked — Page 2

I've now seen DEAD SILENCE and am most disappointed that it wasn't laugh-out-loud-hilarious from start to finish. It was almost well done in parts! Disgraceful.

The Lives of Others won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film this past season, so, critically at least, I wouldn't think it was overlooked.

As Wanna Be A Foster asked in the 2nd post of this thread, overlooked by whom?
Obviously not critically overlooked.
While it did only 10 million in the US (a surprise to me actually now that I look it up), for a foreign film, I guess that may be a lot.
Unfortunately The Host didn't do that well, for a foreign film or a horror movie. It was great, should've done better.

Yeah, I know and it's a shame. I know a lot of people around the country who wanted to, but couldn't see The Lives of Others because it wasn't released wide enough.

But despite what a distributor release plan is initially, if it exceeds expectations and has demand, the release can be widened and has been.

I'm still surprised The Host didn't get a better release and even still didn't do that great. I thought that type of film would do better, foreign or not. I thought it was fabulous. Though I wanted to support it when it was released and take a friend I knew would love it, we never got the chance mostly because of his schedule. I saw it at the NY Film Festival since it was in my subscription plan.

Evening.

I tried sooo hard to love Evening and couldn't, it was just.... bad, the concept was so wonderful but something was lost in the execution. I was watching all these amazing actresses in this mediocre movie...depressing

Also Paris Je T'aime.. can't say enough good things about that movie

Broadway- Did you just list every movie that has come out this year?
