- ha, that was a bit pants.Nairn
- I don’t know what you mean by “a bit pants.”monospaced
- brit for 'not good', mono...
get that detritus out of here, nairnPonyBoy - the movie is absolute rubbish, and the only reason anyone said it was good is because Scorsese directed it and they didn’t want to be honestmonospaced
- I dislike most Scorcese and in a similar vein, I'm very happy Scarface is leading this list. I can't stand a second of it.CyBrainX

pulp fiction - ive never liked it.
- wow. just watched this again yesterday for the first time in probably a decade. don't know how anyone cannot like this film.SteveJobs
- ^ Yeah, sorry, Pulp Fiction's great.Nairn
- blasphemy!hotroddy
- YOU JUST LOST YOUR LA PRIVILEGESdocpoz
- It's a great film. Nowhere near overrated.robthelad
- Yeah, Pulp Fiction is a no brainer.CyBrainX
- Eh it's the only good Tarantino film, because it's honest from the start. The rest of his shit is just actual pulp fiction / foot fetish.garbage

Scarface is on the same level as Heineken and Bob Marley quotes

Drive
All Star Wars movies
All Marvel movies
New Mad Max
Any movie with Denzel Washington- "Any movie with Denzel Washington"
hahaNairn - I want to upvote one and downovte one. How do I do this?Krassy
- ^ - - - + /formed
- + Drive, that really was tedious. So much so that I blaséd through half of Neon Demon assuming it was going to be the same style over substance shite.Nairn
- I liked Fury Road. At least we didn't get another Thunderdome but it was no Road Warriorlemmy_k
- Road Warrior is the only Mad Max movie for meMilan
- You shut your mouth about new mad Max!
It was magnificent!! T_Tpango - That some craziness about Star Wars.CyBrainX
- Fury Road was too over the top, too "clean" for the apocalyptic setting and there was too much makeup on every single character.Milan
- noooooooooo!!!!!pango
- "Any movie with Denzel Washington"

Not overrated as such but Ben Kinglsey's over-the-top acting ruined Sexy Beast.
- He does that in pretty much everything.
I saw him in something recently where he didn't mind. What was it? *addled brain*Nairn - I think i'm hallucinating, nothing tallies with what I can think I saw recently..

Christ, he's done a lot of shite.Nairn - Yep.Fax_Benson
- He does that in pretty much everything.

Just about every god dam film I’ve watched in the last ten years. Yet I still mother fucking go to the cinema in the credulous hope that a film will be good.
Venom was a fucking car crash. Saw it in NYC and the crowd cheered and whooped. Clapped like crazy people. Bitches, what the fuck? The film was diarrhoea.
- Shit. I need to take a breath.RumperChunk
- what's not overrated?docpoz
- was a shit filmmugwart
- absolute shitimbecile
- cunts that cheer and clap in the cinema....pedromendez
- Why do you watch super hero movies? You're an adult... :)jagara
- Just kidding. Ish.jagara
- Who said I was an adult? My wife would def agree that I am not ;)RumperChunk
- Did someone mention motherfuckin?docpoz

Scarface is a funny farce with so many memorable kitschy scenes that it merits it's pop culture status.
SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND
Pacino is HILARIOUS
- utopian-7
The Godfather
- docpoz-11
hmm overrated...
everything is overrated.Every Star Wars after Empire is overrated.
MATRIX. THOSE FIGHT SCENES ARE AS CORNY AS "JUDO CHOP" IN AUSTIN POWERS
- Cosmodrome-2
Feels like you're not allowed to say it because femenism was foisted upon them and that's sincerely important these days... but Fury Road and Wonder Woman were bad movies.
- *feminismCosmodrome
- Wonder Woman was horrible form a storytelling standpointcannonball1978
- equally as good/bad as most other superhero flixdocpoz
- All superhero movies are overrated unless Adam West is trying to get rid of a bomb.CyBrainX

I haven't seen it in a while but I'm going to also mention...
BARRY LYNDON
- nopetank02
- EXPLAIN YOURSELFFF!!docpoz
- Its not overrated, already for the pure technical side of things.
https://www.youtube.…tank02 - a movie is more than technicalities. that kind of thinking gave Avatar an Oscar nod. Fine, Im not of that thinking yetdocpoz
- god, no, tank. no. nooooodocpoz
- Besides that, its a great film, although not for everybody. Besides, Kubrick only won one Oscar, and it wasn't even his to receive, it was for special effects.tank02
- it's my least fave of the Koob.docpoz
- if u dug it u dig it. fuck itdocpoz
- It's his most subtle film from a content perspective, I guess that's why people shit on it.ben_
- its a bit bland and dry. maybe ill enjoy it as i get older... also the subject matter didnt appeal to me on a personal leveldocpoz
- It's a slow one for sure but I don't see it as overrated, the cinematography is insane and that's largely what it gets noted for.ben_
- fair to not like it, but 'overrated' seems inappropriate here, at least to me.ben_
- I haven't seen Barry Lyndon but I was surprisingly disappointed with Dr. Strangelove despite Peter Seller's brilliant performances.CyBrainX
- CyBrain i think your taste is trash. Enough.docpoz
- NOBODY PUTS DOWN RAGING BULL AND STRANGELOVE!! NO ONE!!!!docpoz
- https://i.amz.mshcdn…docpoz
- I may give Dr. Strangelove a second chance one day but I stand by Raging Bull.CyBrainX

Recent:
Boyhood
Arrival
La La Land- boyhood +1
la la land +1
arrival was good thoughmonospaced - Arrival was great, you on crack? Villeneuve is incredible.ben_
- Boyhood was such a non event!Hayzilla
- Kid grew up to be a shit actor. Was shit to start with but got shittier over the years. They shoulda pulled the plug early on he was so shit.monospaced
- Oh. Also the script was stupid AF. Nothing was even about boyhood for real. Absolute shit.monospaced
- hehehdocpoz
- Liked arrival too - other two were pretty shit yeahpedromendez
- For some reason I tear jerked at the end of arrival. I liked Amy Adams in that flick toodocpoz
- For some reason I jerked off at the end of arrival.mort_
- boyhood +1
- Fax_Benson3
Another recent one - Get Out was a bit underwhelming.
- ranked number one horror movie of all time. I couldn't believe it https://editorial.ro…hotroddy
- Ha, that's a laughFax_Benson
- watch it a second timemonospaced
- not likelyFax_Benson
- +1Hayzilla
- I couldn't finish it and I like Microwave Massacre.lemmy_k
- Agree, very underwhelming for a horror movie.OP31
- It’s not a horror. It’s more an awkward creepy comedy.monospaced
- in that case it's even worseFax_Benson
- The TSA guy was in a comedy on his own. The rest of the cast weren't.Fax_Benson
- Very underwhelming for an awkward creepy comedyOP31
- Now a good creepy comedy is A Cabin in the WoodsOP31
- Cabin in the Woods is amazing. I put them on the same level.monospaced
- Fair enough. Bradley Whitford is in both movies so that’s win for bothOP31
- definitely, utter trash.Milan
- wow, didn't expect such a divide over this great film :)monospaced
- Overrated but more than soliddocpoz

I believe I've made my feelings about The Breakfast Club known.
- you old gen-xers. get with the times!sarahfailin
- I have same feelings about Breakfast Club, a yawnfest.robthelad
- CALLES1
Blade Runner is ok.
Ahead of it's time... Sure
- But okCALLES
- i actually agree with you, sirdocpoz
- ditto for the sequel. the pace is just dreadful. it's an acquired taste.docpoz
- oh and if you cant dig blade runner...never watch RANdocpoz
- check that, you may dig it, but expect an even slower pace.docpoz
- The sequel is way better than the original. Pace is just fine.monospaced
- glad, you enjoyed it then. i thought it was peaceful but I prefer many other films to the blade runners. beautiful films, thodocpoz
- i consider the first one a masterpiece, new one was meh.renderedred
- The first one is a sacred classic.CyBrainX
- I prefer Aliens. Such a better movie.docpoz
- I meant Alien.docpoz
- don't compare alien with Bladerunnermonospaced
- why? do you have more than one liners to spew?docpoz
- because they're not comparablemonospaced
- right. one is boring, one isntdocpoz
