What do you consider to be the most overrated films ever? For me it has to be 2001: A Space Odessy. The most pretentious, tedious and slow paced disaster of a film I ave ever had to sit through. Take Kubrick's worst qualities, combine with Arthur C Clarke's general overreaching and you get this abomination.

It was good, but best film of the 90s? A classic? No...NCFOM was MUCH better.

A whole bunch of things, but number one IMO is how overdone the accents are. Funny thing is, the Coen brothers are from Minnesota. Almost no one talks like that there. The scene with Mike, the asian dude is the most awkward scene in film history. I didnt like the character development or even a lot of the characters.

Besides the drugaddict-driven conspiracy theories (plot) and special effects. The movie right down sucked ass. You can't seriously deny that the acting sucked ass in the movie same as the other 2.

I agree with you, John wayne is a terrible actor. Clint Eastwood is much better.

I don't know how you people can say scarface is over rated, it had superb acting, a great story, and an excelent ending, what was wrong with it?! Also 300, although not the best movie ever, still did what it set out to do, create intense action scenes leaving people on the edge of their seats which it totally did. Now the matrix...thats overrated.

You obviously didn't understand the film then.

The accents were overdone on purpose I believe for comedic effect. Fargo just happens to be an extremely dark comedy IMO with some breathtaking camera work thrown in (Some of those shots of the snow were just awe-inspiring for me).

[QUOTE="ninjacat11"]300/ Star Wars.RenegadePatriot
how is Star Wars overrated?

If he thinks it's over-rated, he obviously feels that the quality of the movie does not justify the degree of popularity it has achieved. I agree that both of his choices are indeed over-rated. When it comes to Star Wars, I find the plot too dry, the setting too unbelievable, and too many of the characters downright irritating to enjoy it. The fact that so many people proclaim it to be the greatest film ever created only heighten its over-rated status in my eyes. But that's just an opinion, of course - just like that of those who feel it IS the greatest film ever created.
