Debatable if any Spielberg film qualifies as a hidden gem/underrated but Duel , his first theatrical film, is a favorite of mine. A very good highway horror/thriller movie that's essentially a proto-Jaws but with a truck.
I forgot to add my cult favorite - Knight Riders. Cheesy but fun Ed Harris film with a guest appearance from Stephen King
Sean Penn, Gary Oldman, Robin Wright, Ed Harris, John Turturro - powerhouse lineup from "State of Grace" a great undercover cop drama.
«It's like kids trying to write stories for adults or something.»
There is an huge difference among write a good story and try to write a great one.
«Heroism is not about being perfect or always winning, but breathing hope into the hopeless.»
Batman's world isn't realistic. It's grounded in psychological realism… In real life, Batman's crusade would be a horrible idea.[…] But in the world Batman inhabits, it not only makes sense, it's absolutely the right thing to do.
Oh, I'll add Repo the Genetic Opera (I'm aware it's gained a cult following of its owns too).
You first have to be a fan of musicals, and even in that category, its really violent and dark. It's visually impressive though, Anthony Stewart Head and Alexa Vega in it as father and daughter.
Two that I love.

Also wanna add Black Hole and Renaissance. Renaissance is like if Sin City was animated. Truly brilliant.
Predestination and Moon were two really good, mostly under-the-radar sci-fi films.
Also forgot to mention Sunshine, another great sci-fi film with a surprisingly strong cast.
The Comic (1969) starring Dick Van Dyke, directed by Carl Reiner. A silent film comedian is undone by his ego and selfishness. The films within the film are hilarious!
