Big Boss Posted November 7, 2019 Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 Dhan dhana dhan goal was really sh*t movie man. Watch Goal if you want to experience a good football movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also its very rare for an out and out action movie to win multiple Oscars outside of technical categories. T2 just happens to be one of the greatest movies ever made on top of being a pure action movie, and IMO where James Cameron peaked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dante77 Posted November 7, 2019 Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 Talking of light hearted comedy sports movie. I absolutely love The winning season. One of the most underrated gems. Its not exactly a sports movie but I thought I would just mention it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was asking that in reference to what people generally consider "Oscar material" is -- really well made dramas. The same "Oscar material" which I was asked not to expect a Terminator movie to be at the beginning of the conversation when I bashed Dark Fate. For the record, I myself consider T2 to be worthy of a Best Director nom at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Hollywood goal wasnt very impressive. Dangal was one of the most boring movies I have watched. Edited November 8, 2019 by GunnerY2J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what underrated means. It was a flop but enjoyable. Maybe a guilty pleasure movie as people say, it is cringey but has moments of football emotions taking over.

Watch Goal if you want to experience a good football movie. Goal was okay, story was good. The football shown in it was so f**king unrealistic. It's good for someone not much into football but the story/moments/dialogues are very generic. Pele and the damned united are masterpieces. After watching the damned united, there is a 100% chance of becoming Brian Clough's fan. Edited November 8, 2019 by GunnerY2J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerY2J Posted November 8, 2019 Report Share Posted November 8, 2019 (edited) I understand when dhan dhana is said to be a sh*t movie, it is cringey, has some bollywood masala but enjoyable and gives you some strong feels. But if you really want a masterpiece level of a football movie : goal is not the answer by any means at all, in ways this is also a generic blockbuster masala football movie. For a Proper football movie : Watch the damned united (I watched this movie 6-7 times in the first 10 days I saw it and even more times since then - not that you understand the movie but you can't get enough of it) Not just the best football movie could be one of the best films ever made based on one man and his career, very strong performances, characters and dialogues. A decent amount of scenes can be watched again and again. Pele is great as well. Edited November 8, 2019 by GunnerY2J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I respect your choice but for me an underrated movie means a Film which is very good (not a flop one) and had the capacity to do more business and gain more recognition overall, but was overlooked by the audiences. Like today in the Indian movie scenario, people are liking brainless movies and ignoring the good ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They go unnoticed or underrated because either they were ahead of their time, the ideas presented was for a very niche audience or the makers didn't have the budget to publicize it etc. Dhanadhan was advertised well, had a stellar cast and everything a usual bollywood masala movie has. The reason it flopped was coz it was a badly made movie,despite getting it's fair share of publicity and stuff. It definitely doesn't deserved to be called 'underrated', it was properly rated for what it was ! Edited November 8, 2019 by Ne0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit after double post : Underrated not necessarily should be related with the promotion stuff, maybe most disliked it (rightly) but some part of the audience loved it for some of its very good reasons. and there are many overrated high budget movies that succeeded a lot which were not that good which could make this underrated instead (but I won't disagree with its not underrated) if the same thing Arshad Warsi and John abraham did was done by Shah Rukh Khan and Salman khan, it would have been a super hit. and TBH , Arshad,John and Boman did a good job. it covers some deep topics of racism in football as well and some loyalty and community factors which are touching for the football fan. and is an energetic movie. not a very good movie definitely but comparatively should/could have done better as many much more inferior movies do and am sure was liked by a decent amount of people. i watched it in theatre at the time.

And yes, now I did agree maybe more of a guilty pleasure movie with its fair share of feel great moments. Slight wrong choice of words, enjoyable and worth it nonetheless. Also ,no way related to Hollywood goal like you said and not very inferior either. Edited November 8, 2019 by GunnerY2J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do watch damned united and Pele. Masterpieces. Damned united is even the best movie I have watched ever. Goal 1 was very good for the time (for me as I didn't watch much football although it was clear even then that the football shown was extremely unrealistic) While 3 was unwatchable and 2 was a decent one time watch and forget.

Also, just my observation, ppl tend to watch movies with more confidence when they're sequels / prequels of a known movie. Same reason why we've the terminator franchise still alive even with a string of duds after t2. Ppl still are interested just coz its a terminator movie, wouldn't draw the same attention if they make it into a standalone action movie !
