The sting of a snub isn’t just about awards — it’s about seeing bold storytelling, diverse perspectives, and artistic risks dismissed in favor of safer, more traditional choices. So while the 2025 <a href="https://www.oscars.org/oscars/ceremonies/2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Oscars</a> snubbed these groundbreaking films, you absolutely shouldn’t. If you’ve ever felt like the Academy’s picks don’t reflect the best of cinema, this list is for you.</p> <p>From indie masterpieces to genre-defying dramas, discover five must-watch underrated gems that deserve your attention and where to find them. <strong><em>Yes</em></strong>, that means films like <em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/es/title/tt16426418/" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.imdb.com/es/title/tt16426418/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Challengers</a></em> (2024; Luca Guadagnino) will not be making this list, as projects with such big-time A-listers and directors (and a huge Oscar campaign) hardly qualify as underrated.
