Ignore What the Critics Say, You Should Watch These Underrated Movies

 Nightcrawler (2014) 

Jake Gyllenhaal plays an amateur cameraman that collects film and photos of violent crimes as they unfold. His character has a knack for being in the exact right place at the perfect time, and he makes his living risking his life while driving around all night collecting footage. This description doesn’t do the theme and context of this film justice, it is truly just as intense as any Jason Borne movie, without the macho aspects. For a film about shooting film, you’d expect there to be some serious cinematics, and boy do they deliver. This movie really has some of the coolest and most outstanding shots of the decade.
