Most Overrated Movie ever

I have to say

Titanic
Matrix
All of the Star Wars'

I loved Titanic actually, saw it three times in the theatre [laughs]. Matrix was a great movie, a little over-hyped though, I agree. Star Wars has been decent, although Ive missed the last few. I believe Triple X was overrated, but don' t get me wrong, it was still good. My Big Fat Greek Wedding left me a little uneasy as well, it' s another production that had people speechless - although being rather funny, I found the hype shot it down a bit. Oh, and The Bourne Identity had tons of un-used potential too. That' s my two cents...

Matrix

*Has A seisure, Heart Attack & Anal prolapse .. All at the same time* .. we are all entitled to our own oppinions but thats one of my favourites ..

My most overrated movie has to be X-MEN .. i will not be wasting 6 good english pounds to watch the 2nd part ..

..::GhOZt::..

' Im old enough to know better but young enough to not give a fuck!'

XMEN was too

it wasn' t comic booky enough...if that makes sense to you

Hard to say but Matrix. It was good but Keanue don' t fit the role for me...

I agree with the Matrix and Titanic.

I' ll add Memento and Spiderman to the mix.

How dare you talk bad about Memento? I loved that film and how it was implemented.

But my all time hate object is and will always remain:
Independence Day; I did not know if I should laugh or cry.

I liked it, but it' s not half as great as people claim. The replay value is 0.

I love Momento too - and i agree that there' s pretty much zero replay value to the film... not even the minutest desire to play it again to ' see the clues' again compared to films like The Sixth Sense for instance. But definitely a film i would recommend. =) And you' re right... what a superb execution of analogy between Guy Pearce' s amnesia and the presentation of the narrative!!!

The most over-rated film must be Pulp Fiction! Tarantino' s best film is The Resevoir Dogs i think.

Here' s a question... does Citizen Kane still deserve to the critics choice for bext film ever made, still???!!!

Resevoir Dogs goes up on my list...I don' t think much of Tarantino, and thought VERY little of the movie. I have no idea why everyone loves it so much. I must unfortunately add the Star Wars movies as well. Good, but not the messiah of movies as some people claim.

Definitely Hannibal. It was completely lame and added nothing to the things Silence of the Lambs created.
I' m just glad Red Dragon was a really good movie.

I don' t really think any of the Star Wars were hyped to be the greatest movie of all-time. They were just hyped as being the next Star Wars, and the diehard fans took it from there. I think we all know that the new Star Wars are not great films, but they' re still Star Wars and worth watching just for that fact.

How dare you slander Resevoir Dogs. Fathoms, so who do you consider a good director?

" Citizen Kane" is brilliant. I think it still deserves the crown.


Most overrated though? I' d have to go with Armageddon...... a 2 hour lame-ass Aerosmith video. ....and I hate Afflek

no no....I realllly hate Afflek.

Matrix is easily the most over-rated movie. I can definitely see how it was originally a video game treatment - all graphics, plot with big holes and weak execution. It could have been great, but I walked out and shrugged my shoulders.

I haven' t even seen Titanic.

And I agree with BigRed, as Hannibal was a snore-fest. Just cheap gimmics making a mockery of Silence of the Lambs. A waste of talent and my time.

i' d like to add the LOTR series and

" The Others"

I tried watching them and fell asleep

YAWN

drew: Then you missed a great ending...the ending is what made the movie. Not a fantastic movie, but definitely worth watching for that climax, IMO.

Kikizo Staff Writer

I' m too analytical. Had " The Others" twist pegged 15 minutes in....still enjoyed watching it though.

Titanic was the biggest load of crap ever! It was so much crap the real Titanic would sink trying to accomadate it! It was absolute TRASH! Crappy crap crap! I hated it! One of my most dispised movies ever. Pure sh*t! Sorry to rant but it was terrible!

I loved the Matrix and can' t wait for the sequal. How can you guys not like it?

I know it sounds a bit gay but I actually enjoyed Titanic and in reference to Drews original post I have the posters for all of the films he hates framed on my living room wall. Oh well...

Nobody has said Waterworld?? What the hell is the mater with you people?? ;)

That' s not overrated - that was poo from the word go. Must have been difficult for Kevin Costner

skurf: I don' t necessarily think that Tarantino is a BAD director; just an over-rated one. And Reservoir Dogs simply was not as great as everyone seemed to think.

I think Scorsese, Mendes (lately), and of course Spielburg top the list. I liked Mel Gibson' s direction in Braveheart and Peter Jackson' s in the LotR trilogy.

Kikizo Staff Writer

I felt East is East was overrated, it was meant to be a dark comedy but seemed a bit of a depressingly sad experience in the end?

The flat shaded polygons are much more rounded here...

LOTR , easilly. Peter Jackson is a horrible director. Everything else he did sucked.
Out of 3 hours, theres only 5 minutes of good footage in the movie, 2 mins in the beginning and 3 in the end. The rest of the movie sucked hairy ass.

Jackson has done a wonderful job with the LOTR. Obviously as a fan of the books, there were things I was dissapointed in, however I understand the reasons why things were changed or omitted. It many areas, they films brought the books to life much as I thought of them.

As for Over rated movies...


Anything that uses cliche' s(sp?) in the Trailers, such as...


In a World...

Pushed to the Limit...

One Man against...

On a mission to save mankind...

All that lame action shit.

The Trailers for matrix are anything but cliche.

Very true, I' m not saying you shouldn' t be hyped about the sequels, I think everyone should be. I' m just sayin your point on having one man wage war and all that other blah blah blah stuff is exactly what the Matrix is all about, it just has a big twist to it.

Saving Ryan' s Privates: (No Matter how many awards this movie won/wins, I didn' t enjoy Saving Private Ryan at all)

Star Wars: I personally thought they were ' good' but NOT *sleep in line for 2 days just to get movie tickets* GREAT...

Matrix:reloaded shall bow down to the Marvel movies


the first one was gay and only held up by special effeects

They had a new trailer for Matrix Reloaded at X2. It was unbelievible. It starts where Trinity falls backwards out of a window of a sky scraper. She is blasting straight up with two uzis. Then Agent Smith jumps out the window after her. It is all in slow mo and you can see the bullets wizzing back and forth between eachother. So cool! There is much more but it would take forever to write.

Charlies angels, both of them. those movies where so bad that i was actually upset that i saw that moive. my friends did not understand why i was even that angry about that movie. that movie was such a fanboy fanservice movie that i was shocked. Diaz hot. Lu hot. Drew, eh. the moive, HORRORABLE!!!!!

gah! I knew something from tarantino would end up in here...oh well I' ll try to stay calm. I kinda agree that resevoir dogs isn' t his best work.

I' ve always thought Star Wars was overrated, but I' m just not personally into it. If I were, I can see how it would be such a great movie.

Matrix? The first one was incredible, but I saw it before I had ever studied philosophy. After going thru a class I realized the idea wasn' t THAT original- I just wouldn' t call it overrated

Titanic. Ha, I actually thought it was pretty good the first time I saw it. I really didn' t know it was so hyped until a week or so after I saw it. But the fact that it made as much as it did makes me want to puke.

Shrek. I liked it, I can' t deny that. But maybe I' m missing something, b/c I don' t think it should have recieved the amount of attention that it did.
