I want to say The Thin Red Line, not an obscure movie at all and got some good Oscar attention, but relatively speaking overlooked, especially since it came out the same year as Saving Private Ryan.
Absolutely a ridiculous cast, some performances were even left on the cutting room floor.

The Grand is a great one for an insane murder’s row of mostly comedy actors.
It’s a Best In Show style mockumentary about a poker tournament, starring Woody Harrelson, but also has Dennis Farina, David Cross, Ray Romano, Richard Kind, Cheryl Hines, Chris Parnell, Hank Azaria, Jason Alexander, Michael McKean, Judy Greer, Estelle Harris, and even Werner feakin’ Herzog.
People not into poker and specifically the early-mid 2000s poker boom may not get all the humor, but for people who are familiar with that world it’s a great watch.

I loved this movie growing up as a kid. Filmed in my backyard, super super all star cast, and a up and coming River Phoenix… Seriously an underrated and fun movie.

It’s not an overlooked movie.
Anyone that loves movies has seen it.

Yeah have never seen this one, looks great!
I’ll throw in a vote for Interstate 60. Solid enough indie that went direct to DVD despite a cast including James Marsden, Gary Oldman, Kurt Russell, Michael J. Fox *and* Christopher Lloyd, Amy Smaer, Amy Jo Johnson, Ann-Margaret, and Chris Cooper.

Sneakers is one of my favorite movies ever.
So many movies steal from it. And most people don’t even realize.

James Earl Jones and Mary McDonnell were great in this one too!
Even the lesser parts were great actors…Stephen Toblerone, Donal Logue, Timothy Busfield and Edsie Jones 🤗🤗☎️📠🛰
