Can't really think of anything off the top of my head myself, but I love the Sherlock Holmes movies!

Dead Before Dawn 3d 2012: I find this movie a fun and hilarious silly movie. The plot itself is pretty straight forward but I love the characters and comedic dialogue. Definitely underrated.
Battlefield Earth, I like it
Xanadu (1980)
Featuring the ultimate power couple: Sandy from Grease and Swan from The Warriors!
Lock Up (1989).
Yes it's a generic prison movie with quite a few standard tropes, but I've always liked it.
Civil War. I don't know the rating on Rotten Tomatoes, but I do know that it is a recent movie, and 196 sent me here lol
Mother Lode (1982)
A film about a man living alone and far away from civilization in a wooden hut, digging a mineshaft for years in search of gold. Very atmospheric and doesn't have any of putting moments in my opinion, despite the rating.
When I wanted to rewatch it 10 years later it was so hard to find that I had to make a post on a movie buff forum with a vague description from memory because I forgot the title.
