i thought that too. i recalled seeing 3/4 of it at a friend's house when i was a teenager and i thought it was a great motivational/uplifting kind of movie. bought it based on that impression a couple months ago, rewatched it and thought it was terrible.

Badlands was very good. Not sure how underrated it is. It's just mostly unknown except to movie buffs.

Wouldn't this make it "underappreciated?"

It's not like I pulled out some "Pane y Tulippi y Chocalat" bullshit. This is a great movie with Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek, for cryin out loud; the fact that nobody has ever heard of it means that it went largely unnoticed, and that, to me, is "underappreciated."
