Me and my friend have this online magazine and we did an article this month listing the top 10 most overrated movies of all time. I'm interested in people's opinions so tell me what you think. (The list isn't numbered but the first movie is number 1 on the list (most overrated) and the second one listed is 2nd on the list, and so on.)

Most of thoese movies aren't rated very highly at all, and Fight Club cannot possibly be overrated. It's a relative impossibility

i agree %100 with napoleon dynamite. i hate that movie with every bit of animosity my body can luster. however i gotta disagree with Fight club, POTC. those are really good movies despite some minor plot holes. and as for hostel, i didn't even know that was was so poular. i know people who like it, but i had no idea it was to that extent. and as for superman returns, the only reason why i liked it at all was because of Kevin Spacey. why? because Kevin Spacey is just that good. he was really great as Lex and saved that movie.

Anchorman is one of those movies that's actually funnier the second or third time, rather than the first. It's weird, but true. I have had about 3 people tell me the exact same thing.

The writing style is also very poor, akin to that of a freshman in high school, maybe even the equivalent of a 7th or 8th grader.

How the heck are Scarface and Pulp Fiction overrated? Those movies are great. In fact, those are my two favorite movies. They are in no way overrated.

The last two may have been bad, but the first one was in no way overrated, by my standards anyways.

Scarface: Wow, so Tony Montana thinks he is a badass. Too bad the plot is boring and the whole movie is leaning on Al Pacinos shoulders. Once that I ended I found myself saying "WTF and this is called GOOD?"

The plot of Scarface is not boring. Also, there is more in Pulp Fiction than just "clever" lines. The way all of the stories intertwine with one another is brilliant.

Pulp Fiction, to me, wasn't about "clever lines"...it was about character development, and yeah, they developed a great deal throughout the movie. I thought the character study was fascinating, and I'd never seen a movie that had such casual conversation between people before. At the time, the conversations didn't seem like much, but they really had a part to play in the plot. I love it. :)

EDIT: And I've never seen Scarface...it never really interested me. :P

Crash is overrated, it would have made the list if it was a top 15 or top 20.
Where's 300monkey27272
I had no interest in seeing that dumb movie. And even though I'm 100% the movie would be terrible, I take pride in my writing and I wouldn't list the movie there if I haven't actually watched it.
The writing style is also very poor, akin to that of a freshman in high school, maybe even the equivalent of a 7th or 8th grader.Greatgone12
Maybe the ones my friends wrote, but the movies I did were very good. Like I said before the ones I did were Anchorman, Napoleon Dynamite, Fight Club, Twister and Pirates Of The Caribbean. You can clearly see a rise in quality with the ones I did over the other ones.

Two? I know someone said they didn't like Star Wars...don't recall see anyone else harping on American Beauty.

"Goddammit, how long are they going to do absolutely nothing" - Me upon seeing Star Wars Episode 1-3

"That was okay...just okay. Not the greatest series ever like people say. They should re do it with Chewy playing every character" - Me upon seeing Episodes 4-6

"What The **** was that" - Me upon watching American Beauty.

I didn't give a damn about a single character in Pulp Fiction, so any character development was made moot by the fact that they never interested me at all.

Oh, and don't see Scarface. It is a waste of time. There is nothing remotely good about that movie besides Al Pacino's acting and MAYBE the chainsaw scene. Other than that, it is nothing but drugs and Al Pacino being INCREDIBLY cocky, with some violence thrown in. Definitely nothing worthy of the praise it gets.

Oh and BTW TC, I should pimpsmack you for putting Jurassic Park on your list. The first movie is easily one of my all-time favs. It is a movie I can go back and watch and still enjoy. Better yet I get more out of it NOW seeing as I am old enough now to get all the theoretical and philisophical content of the movie.

Not really. Various misspellings and grammatical errors, not to mention a complete lack of understanding of most of the movies you have listed.

I guess there enlies the problem. :P I usually begin a movie caring about characters, and because I found the characters relatable (not that I'm a hitman or anything...>_>) also helped. That's just me, though. :)

How in the hell does something as subjective as movies (or music, for that matter) become overrated? Can people actually be duped into thinking they like something when they actually don't? I really don't get it. If a large audience enjoys a movie, is it up to pretentious elitists who hate everything that's popular to decide when something doesn't deserve the praise it gets?

Thats the thing, I need at least some reason to care about the characters. I didn't relate to single person in the movie, and they sure as hell weren't likeable people. You can't lack both of those qualities entirely and expect me to care about the characters....
