But now that I think of it, Mystic River was a box-office smash, making nearly $100 million, so I think it is anything but underrated or unknown. Stranger Than Fiction did alright at the box-office as well. I guess I'm going to have to respectfully disagree, but to set the record straight, I loved both of those films. I think it's just that we have different perceptions of the meaning of "underrated". I put those movies basically because they don't get as much recognition as I feel they deserve. And I've never heard Mystic River called a classic around these boards, which is where I'm referring to when I say the films don't get enough attention. I wasn't including the original acclaim upon the films releases, I was talking about how they are thought about here and now. I guess I should have made that clearer.
