It’s almost the end of another astonishing year with a lot of great movies, and it’s been a very significant year for all the movie buffs out there. 2016 came with a lot of movies which people loved and also movies about which people never heard of. This year gave out a lot of great movies like Suicide squad, Captain America: civil war, Dead pool, Doctor strange and many more which gained the attention of the crowd. And here are some movies which are ignored and underrated but have a very strong story line and a stunning script but failed to reach out to the people. We are at a point where we don’t know whether to blindly believe into the ratings or to watch the movie our self and then reaching a conclusion. Here are some of the underrated movies which are most likely to be seen by a movie buff:.

1. Demolition

Jake Gyllenhaal has proven himself to be one of the best and most accomplished actors of his generation that is one of the biggest reasons why it is worth watching. Demolition tells the story of an Investment banker Davis Mitchel who struggles to finds a way to move forward after the death of his beloved wife. Though it is true that demolition can’t quit sticking to singular person but that doesn’t make it unwatchable. The movie is packed with memorable dialogue cues and fine performances but still it is Jake Gyllenhaal who glue the eyes of the audience to himself in every scene and proving that he can nail any character.

2. Knights of Cups

Knights of cups proved to be underrated, weightless and in need for more substance. Indeed there was the lack of story which resulted in the criticism and the under-rating of the cinema but what many missed, however, is that the story was there indeed, it’s just the matter of reading the lines and then interpreting into images. Because at the first time it’s impossible what to make out of the film and before long, though after some period everything comes flowing back and it is sensed that there is something unfinished. This film demands much more concentration to expose the hidden theme and messages that you almost certainly missed the first time.

3. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

It cannot be denied that Batman V Superman is flawed because the plot of the movie is unclear and messy and the relationship between the titular heroes makes little sense but despite these flaws the movie promises to entertain and holds on to the storyline. Perhaps it was a sense of disappointment due to the action scenes leaves a lot which is desired which resulted in one or two-star review but there is still a lot to like. Ben Affleck portrays as one of the best screen Batman ever and also there are some wonderful images throughout especially the paint that says Superman as “God.”

4. Money Monster

It's strange that such a film packed with entertainment and thriller was refused by the viewers. It never supposed to be a masterpiece and yet it is the perfect combination of entertainment and thriller. The plot focuses on a talk show which is played by George Clooney who is held hostage by a disgruntled young man with a gun and an explosive device in his inventory. Jack O'Connell the disgruntled young man does a fantastic job of emphasizing an entire generation. Though the movie is settled for an average rating but it sure is a movie to be worth watching.

5. How to Be Single

People who haven’t watch How to be single, probably wondering that it’s the same old genre of rom-com, the kind of movie where a girl never wants a boyfriend in her life because she believes that to be happy you don’t need to have a boyfriend. Well, that’s not the fair summary. The movie is the very opposite of the assumption. This movie defines the singledom as well as the freedom of happiness in a women’s life and that relationships are painted just as an option. The movie is entertained by two main characters, played by Dakota Johnson and Rebel Wilson who never let down their characters. If you want to decide to watch the film on the basis of its plot alone then you will be disappointed but rather you might be surprised by the refreshing nature of this rom-com that you would likely to miss.
