Ok seeing as we have an underrated movie thread we should have an Overrated one too.
To make this list a film has to have been successful and probably over hyped but when you saw it you couldn't help but be disappointed.
I will start it off with a film that lots of people loved but i absolutely hated.
FIGHT CLUB
Comments
Absolutely.
Shawshank Redemption,
Donny Darko
'Braveheart'
'Unbreakable'
The re-make of ''Pelham 123'
The re-make of The Italian Job'
Mamma Mia*
Jeez, the way some women go on about how great this film is you would think it was a modern classic instead of the biggest pile of steaming doodoo of the last 10 years. We were discussing this in the pub and not one of us (blokes) could name a worse film in that period.
*in saying this I have only watched 10 minutes, so maybe the other 80 was brilliant, in which case I stand corrected.
I've never come across anyone saying that the remakes of the Italian Job or Pelham 123 are particularly good.
Kick-Ass = also turd
I'll add all the Iron Man and Spiderman films - vacuous dogshit, all of them
Mr & Mrs Smith.
Worst film i have ever been forced to sit through. I was offended at work when someone tried to reccomend it to a colleague and i don't like the person who was going to buy it. Wouldn't wish it on my enemie's is a strong statement.
Is it not Carlito's way
Saving private ryan im not having that fubar
'Outdoor Swedish Milfs - Double Penetration compilation 2' - came highly recommended but i thought it was overrated. Too predictable with not enough imagination used by the director, which was a shame.
