Titan is a fun flick. It's not great cinema, and it spends a lot of time
on gratuitous effects sequences. But it's a nice ride and very
entertaining.
For underrated films, I like "The Gods Muist Be Crazy - II". An American
business woman, a bush pilot, a few soldiers, and several animals
partake in a slapstick romp across the African bush.
