re: Top 5 Overrated movies of the decade

Clooney's character changes in UP IN THE AIR how? The film had no ending. It's extremely overrated.

Why do his political views have to do with anything? Clooney is a smug son of a bitch condescending rich movie star. He already comes off as a prick. So he plays a pick.

Film will do modest business. I think it's overrated.

Back to the topic at hand, I fell asleep during two of three of the LORD OF THE RINGS movies. So they are on my overrated list.

Dark Knight x100000000000000000000000

It is not a terrible movie. It is not a bad movie. There is nothing wrong with this movie.

But I saw it in theaters, I saw it once, and I will never see it again. It didn't bother me or bore me.. it's just not a movie I have a desire to sit through again. Like I said, it was not bad. But it certainly wasn't the greatest movie ever IMO like many have claimed.

I'd put Kill Bill at the top of my list. I do not see what all the fuss is about. And if the Matrix was this decade go ahead and up it on that one too.

I agree with Hangover being overrated.

outside of the pictures at the end...the movie just isn't that funny

let's assume for argument's sake that people don't' like it due to the homoeroticism--how is that the same as "homophobia"? I don't like romantic comedies either, but that doesn't mean i'm afraid of lame hetero couples, hugh grant or sandra bullock?

The most overrated stuff from this decade is any of that God awful pretentious hipster indy bullshite that they throw at us and expect us to like because its HIP and QUIRKY

Garden State
Juno
Lost in Translation
etc

frick these movies.

Dark Knight!

I will agree that the movie is overrated but Heath Ledger's performance was stunningly incredible.

I really don't see how so many people are saying Dark Knight.

No other comic book or action film touches that thing. Completely raised the bar x100 for what those kinds of movies can be.

Great acting, great storyline, great themes.

The thing was a freakin morality play.

TDK does not belong in this thread.

Just to reiterate, over rated does not mean the film is bad. All it means is its been hyped up to something it isn't. While I did enjoy it, I do think it is alittle overhyped, although it certainly wouldn't make it on my list.

Boondock Saints? Did you see one commercial for that movie? This is top 5 OVERrated. Anyway, heres my list

1. Lost In Translation
2. Children of Men
3. Chicago
4. Mystic River
5. The others
