Now we're having a Saving Private Ryan bash, eh? I love it. Let's take all the popular movies that are also critically acclaimed and bash them in a single thread.

We could bash movies like Titanic, Braveheart, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Patton, The French Connection... hell, even the GODFATHER! Think about it! Think about how contrarian we can be! Think about how cool we'd appear to the other people on this board if we went against the prevailing thought on film and believed Chinatown to have been overacted! God, we'd look cool.

There is a difference between criticism and bashing.

sorry that I think the whole flash back / flash forward at the begining and end of SPR is awful and unnecessary.

so anyone with any differing opinion is just trying to be cool?

Actually, lots of people bash Braveheart and I personally was let down by Chinatown.
