What movies do you consider 'overrated'. For me, It's the Godfather. That movie sucked big time.Hinata237
Did you just say The Godfather sucked.........:o Its like my favourite movie of ALLLLLL TIME!!!!!! Followed closely by City of God =)
Maybe you just didnt give the film a chance. It has one of the best narratives and stories ever written in a film. I could go on for a long time as ive written papers on the movie for film studies but all im saying is that maybe you should watch it again.
Either that or your one of those people that are like "OMG this is boring, its just talking blah bla blah"
I think that the Matrix movies were really overrated...majinstrings
Seconded.I hated the Matrix movies.
These topics are getting as "bad" as religious ones. I think I've seen this same type of topic countless number of times now, and they always come out with the same answers. The biggest problem here is, what one person thinks is overrated, another will think it isn't. But, that's just my opinion.
The lord of the rings...... hey! lets go for a walkmaccer101
That is an example...I love those movies, and I in no way think they are overrated.
No movies can be called overrated overall. Somebody may call a movie overrated while another person may disgree. Its all opinion, none of it is fact in any way so why ask the question?Film-Guy
Because I'd like to know peoples opinions... It's pretty obvious.

Hmm... maybe you're right. I never really payed attention to the movie, I just watched it while doing something else and I didn't really like what I saw.
I'll give it another chance.

I actually like these, since they involve movie tastes, not lifestyles like religious topics.These topics are getting as "bad" as religious ones. I think I've seen this same type of topic countless number of times now, and they always come out with the same answers.

Donnie Darko is well made and all, and some of its realistic dialogue is really cool, but it does not make any sense. Also, Forrest Gump tries way to hard to be happy, and Dirty Harry is a criminally bad movie and anyone who does not condemn its production should be labeled an enemy combatant and have their human rights violated.quiglythegreat
you seem to have a grudge against Dirty harry, whats the deal?

It's the worst serious, blockbuster movie I've ever seen. It's terrible. There's so much wrong with it. The bad guy isn't so much evil as he is lame. There is gratuitous violence. Dirty Harry doubles as a suicide counselor who by frustrating the suicidal guy saves his life (a very reliable tactic that must be!). Not to mention the totally pointless nudity. Like, utterly, utterly pointless nudity, and let us not forget the film's sole depiction of black people as criminals. This movie is terrible.[QUOTE="Film-Guy"][QUOTE="quiglythegreat"]Donnie Darko is well made and all, and some of its realistic dialogue is really cool, but it does not make any sense.

Can you name any redeeming qualities in that entire film? I kept looking for them whiile watching it thinking 'no, it can't be THIS bad'. Perhaps you'll enlighten me as to why it isn't worth of my complete contempt.[QUOTE="Film-Guy"][QUOTE="quiglythegreat"]Donnie Darko is well made and all, and some of its realistic dialogue is really cool, but it does not make any sense.

Dirty Harry is looking for some criminals, but oh wait, our hero finds some breasts instead. How sauve of him. And then there's the dead naked body, because these film-makers are apparently incapable of illustrating the horror of adbucting, raping, and murdering a person without the use of full frontal nudity in an otherwise fairly calming shot.[QUOTE="Film-Guy"][QUOTE="quiglythegreat"][QUOTE="Film-Guy"][QUOTE="quiglythegreat"]Donnie Darko is well made and all, and some of its realistic dialogue is really cool, but it does not make any sense.

Perhaps you'll enlighten me as to why it isn't worth of my complete contempt.redeeming qualities? Sure harry isnt exacly a pure cop but hes a kick ass character. The way he almost tortures the Scorpio killer is twisted but awesome and how the Scorpio killer isnt an immortal killer but a regular guy who happens to be a killer. The bus scene where the killer freaks out the kids by making them sing was pretty messed up and it had one of the best one liners ever. Also how is the nudity pointless? Its nudity enjoy it dont complain about it!
He's not a kick ass character; he shoots down people as they run away from him. There's nothing about the bad guy that's acurate of serial killers, not that they care. He could've been so creepy. This is a person who just randomly grabs a gun and decides to start taking people down. There could be creepier stuff than him making little kids sing, but the people who made this film are apparently just about as creative as Terri Schiavo in her later years. The nudity that most frustrated me was of the dead body. You aren't supposed to appreciate it, but the chick looked like she was alive anyway, so I guess it's cool.redeeming qualities?

this guy thinks that all the good qualities of the dirty harry series suck, no wonder he doesn't like it.Dirty Harry acts this way cause he's badass.There is nudity cause there is nudity in real life,and cause its a dirty harry movie.There isn't much more to say,you either like it or you don't(however most peole like it:))

Well, they generally are very cool customers. They don't get along with people; they attempt to have as little human interaction with their victims as possible. Usually they obsessively plan out how they will go through with things; this guy was really half-ass about it, which is especially abnormal for sniper-serial-killers.Please Log In to post.
