Default Overrated Movies

What are some overrated movies?

Last few I watched were surely overrated. There Will Be Blood, Taxi Driver, Shaun Of The Dead.

The MOST overrated of all time, which I have seen, thus far, however, are The Usual Suspects, the Godfather, and 2001: A Space Odyssey.

In before the inevitable arguing about Christopher Nolan's movies being overrated.

Edit: oh man I just saw who started this thread. Back from suspension and making a thread like this? Will go over wonderfully if it is like your last one.

Overrated movie threads are overrated. Cliched, generic, even the performances are boring, and direction? Pah, what direction! They're just the same thing time and time again.

I don't care what anyone says, THE LEGO MOVIE is HIGHLY overrated, IMO!

Inception is overrated as well.

I liked Inception pretty well, but I already have forgotten most of it.

I'm inclined to agree too, but then again, I've only seen one of the seemingly 50 cuts (the original Director's Cut on DVD). I did buy the digibook Blu because I'm curious about the different cuts. Harrison Ford's acting is ridiculously bad though. Then again,
[Show spoiler]maybe it was on purpose if he was supposed to be a Replicant?
If nothing else, the movie is a visual masterpiece. It looks awesome, and I'm sure it's been largely influential.

2001 overrated?

Hell, just about every movie is overrated if you look at it the right way. People love Magic Mike but if you can't get past the male stripper part, you would probably feel it is overrated. I think there are some that actually are but haven't we discussed this in a dozen threads before?

Top Movie Lists thread was actually my favourite movie, it's just a shame the ending was cut.

Every movie DOES get called overrated on IMDB. But it's kind of crazy that some of the worst movies are rated the highest. 2001 had 20 minutes of story and 2 hours of looking at objects sitting there in space.

Yet some of the worst rated movies are good. I saw a movie called Trance recently, which was pretty good. A lot more entertaining than 2001. Only problems were 1. it started trying oo hard to throw a million twists in at the end and 2. the full frontal nudity was of someone I wasn't attracted to (Rosario dawson).
