I would think more the latter than the former. And I loved "A Simple Plan."
I'll throw out two favorite underrated (or under radar) movies: "Five Corners," and "Once Around." For a "bigger" picture that I don't think got anywhere near the recognition it deserved, I'll go with "Everybody's All American."
