Movies you liked as a kid but disappointing as adult?
I could watch anything with Diane Lane...that hasn't changed as I got older... Had to google her-- Who is Diane Lane? American actress Diane Lane (born January 22, 1965) has appeared in several notable films, including the 2002 film Unfaithful, which earned her Satellite, New York Film Critics...

In the light of these recent movie threads why not highlight some hidden gems that deserve more recognition than they get? Do you have any favorite movies (hidden gems) that are misunderstood and disliked by majority of the public? I'll start.
1) When movie "Drive" came out in 2011, I got excited about it and watched it with a group of friends. None of them enjoyed it as much as I did. Re-watched it recently and enjoyed it just as much as I did back in 2011.
2) This one is a masterpiece in my opinion (in its own unique way), special thanks to whoever picked out the music for it. "Hardcore Henry" from 2015. Out of all my friends only 1 liked it as much as I did. Rest just absolutely hated it. Still don't understand why though... It was a cool idea to see the movie through the eyes of the main character. While weird at times - it is a sci-fi action movie. So no - it's not gonna follow the laws of physics and such... But even when I re-watched it, it still kept me on the edge of the seat.
What are your personal favorites, that are not exactly as widely accepted as you think they should be?
