I am looking for some of your sleeper movies. I am not into special effects movies. Seems like that is all they can make with all the super hero crap. Here are some of my favorite from the past.
October Sky, Something the Lord Made, Temple Grandin, original Walking Tall, Jeremiah Johnson, Legends of the Fall, and Almost Famous. All of these were fantastic stories with no special effects. Your recommendations can be older. Doesn't have to be recent.
Brubaker
A history of violence is one of my all time favorites. I would highly recommend it.
Team Enigma Fishing
Not much out there anymore. I have a disdain for that cgi superhuman comic book movies.
Nocturnal Animals, Hell or High Water, Shot Caller, Mud
Hidden Figures. True story of A WV women that was a math genius and helped NASA in the Space Race.
This one will leave You in stitches:

"13 Lives" on Amazon Prime.
Perfect Storm
The Edge
I really enjoyed Interstellar too
Shawshank Redemption, A Simple Plan, Death Hunt, A Man Called Horse, Dances With Wolves
The Peanut Butter Falcon was good, and by your list you might like a series called "Godless" on Netflix.
Frailty and Diablo.
But I like surprise endings.

Two wrongs don't make a right , but three lefts do.
I don’t like the super hero movies either. Seems like that’s all they want to make anymore. No comedies because they are afraid to offend someone
Apocalypto. Think Mel Gibson produced it. Was surprised at how good it was. Also, enjoyed the "Highwaymen" on Netflix.
Signs
Not sure a sleeper, but I liked A River Runs Through It.
('course, I liked Wolfen too - so ...)
Do not take your half in the middle ....
Adam Sandler's latest movies are a whole new level for him and honestly some of his best movies ever. Really enjoyed Hustle and loved him in Uncut Gems but UG is definitely a style of movie you either get in to or you don't like. It's actually brilliantly done... it's constant chaos to your eyes and ears until it's not. Really a unique and reflective experience as a movie watcher. Zero CGI.
Togo with Willem Defoe
Everything that Rises with Dennis Quaid
