It's an interesting list but you should put a comment about why you consider them that as underrated because many of those movies seem, to me, to be more unknown than underrated.

The original Vanishing is far superior than the american version with Jeff Bridges.

I couldn't agree with you more on this list. ESPECIALLY Session 9 and Stir of Echoes. My God, I'd love to show the world those 2.

Indeed, Session 9 had a great plot but let's be honest, the acting wasn't so good, with a better cast could have been great. Maybe this is the reason why it doesn't get big ratings. Got a 7 from me. Btw, I'm definitely agree with u on this 3 movies: About a Boy, Thin Red Line & Road To Perdition.

Great list. Seen 35 of them. Don't agree with all of them but still all types of underrated great stuff here. Really need to see Mr. Nobody soon.

About half of these I haven't seen but want to. The 5 I HAVE seen we agree on, and the rest I haven't heard of. So I'll keep this list in mind once I've caught up on those I already wanted to watch...

I've seen at about half of this list. Great movies!
