The term "underrated" get thrown out a lot. But this film truly encompasses that term.

In "The Cable Guy," a dark comedy directed by Ben Stiller, a lonely and socially awkward cable installer named Chip Douglas, played by Jim Carrey, develops an unhealthy obsession with one of his customers, Steven Kovacs, portrayed by Matthew Broderick. Steven just wants a simple cable installation, but Chip sees an opportunity to fill the void in his life by befriending Steven, despite Steven's reluctance.

As Chip's behavior becomes increasingly intrusive and erratic, Steven tries to distance himself, but Chip's relentless pursuit only escalates. Chip inserts himself into Steven's life, disrupting his relationships and manipulating situations to keep Steven dependent on him. Along the way, Chip's troubled past and psychological instability come to light, revealing a deeply disturbed individual beneath his affable facade.

The film explores themes of loneliness, obsession, and the blurred boundaries between friendship and manipulation. Carrey's performance as the unhinged Cable Guy is both hilarious and chilling, showcasing his versatility as an actor. "The Cable Guy" serves as a satirical commentary on the pervasiveness of media culture and the dangers of unchecked obsession in a digital age.

We said screw it and decided to do one more Bill Murray movie for the road.

Dr. Leo Marvin, played by Richard Dreyfuss, is a successful psychiatrist whose carefully ordered life is turned upside down when his obsessive-compulsive patient Bob Wiley, portrayed by Bill Murray, follows him on his family vacation. As Bob worms his way into the hearts of Dr. Marvin's family and disrupts his professional and personal life, chaos ensues.

We explore the comedic genius of Bill Murray as he brings Bob Wiley to life with his trademark wit and charm, contrasting brilliantly with Richard Dreyfuss' exasperated portrayal of Dr. Marvin. The film's timeless humor and memorable moments, such as Bob's "baby steps" and his bond with Marvin's family, continue to resonate with audiences decades later.
