15 Most Underrated War Movies Of All Time

Yes, that’s right—he may not be as infamous as he was back in his House of the Dead-adapting days, but we’re still willing to take some flack for saying that former Worst Director Alive Uwe Boll’s Tunnel Rats is actually a crazy underrated piece of war cinema.

It’s largely down to the director’s daring and ultimately wise decision to forego a script entirely during the shoot of this intense, experimental war flick, which follows the titular tunnel rats, US soldiers sent to flush out Viet Cong traps from cramped tunnels during the decades-long conflict. As a result, the banter between the characters and their eventual angst and heartbreak is far more believable, and this 2008 drama ends up far better than it has any right to be, offering a painfully real depiction of the squalid reality of the Vietnam conflict.
