Eurotrip. It was panned across the board, but turned out to be a fun movie. It was very original, had no farting jokes in it, played masterfully with clichés and turned them upside town (for example all french are nudists, but when they turn up there are only horny naked tourists who fell for the cliché) and the cameo from Matt Damon was a hoot. It's not a masterpiece, but I had a lot of fun.

Yeah, I'd agree with both Man on Fire and Eurotrip. Man on Fire did get good WOM, but poor reviews. I thought it was a masterpiece though.

Sky Captain and King Arthur deserved better treatment but generally it was more a year of movies being over praised rather than under. I found Bourne Supremacy and Spider Man 2 more interesting as character dramas than the oscar oriented movies like Million Dollar Baby and Sideways.

It wasn't a dumb teen movie, it was a constantly funny surprize comedy. It underperformed at the Box Office.
Agreed, ti wa shysterically funny, and far more enjoyable then alot of comedies I have seen in the last few years.

What? Nobody is showing any love for New York Minute?!?!
I'm forced to pull out even more hilarious quotes (courtesy of IMDB!) from this underrated masterpiece. This is the 2nd funniest moment in movie history...

Eurotrip sucked hard.
In terms of Box office i would say Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind was underrated by the public.
In terms of critical reviews,I would say TPOTC,Man on Fire and The Chronicles of Riddick.
