Movies that came out of nowhere and blew you away
What movies have you guys seen that you went in not expecting much, but walked out completely wowed? For me, the big one would have to be District 9. I went in expecting just another sci-fi actioner...and instead got one of the strongest, most compelling political allegories in years. What say you?

Batman Begins. At first I was like, "It's Batman, but it will never beat Batman (1989)," but I found out it was something wayyyyy different.

Also X men first class. I was like "Ugh, another X men film, whatever," and I watch it on the big screen and I was like wow.

Exactly what I was going to say. That and Hugo are the reasons why I try to anticipate movies less by trailers and more by talent.

Ong bak, it's a thai Martial arts Film starring Tony Jaa, I hadn't seen any Tony Jaa film before I saw Ong Bak... the martial arts and stunts in that film are pretty amazing.

you just reminded me of when I finally got around to seeing Highlander and Scarface, the plots seem kinda dull but they were pretty awesome movies.

I think to a certain extent Iron Man could qualify. I had heard good things about it, but I never thought it would be such a good film. The opposite? Iron Man 2!
Rise of the Planet of the Apes was a very good film, but I didn't expect that at all, I thought it would be a piece of crap science fiction drama film.
But I did not real have movies that I went in having low expectations to actually "wow" me.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes is a great example–you're right, that was shocking how good it was.
