Gran Torino
Sin City
There Will Be Blood
* I haven't seen Inglorious Bastards yet so that might sneak into the top 10.
While I did enjoy them, IMO Children Of Men, Brokeback Mountain, the Dark Knight & The LOTR trilogy are vastly overrated.

Other notables from this decade
No Country For Old Men
Million Dollar Baby
Confessions Of A Dangerous Mind
Almost Famous
Lost In Translation
Remember The Titans
Ray

And of course the great comedies...
Anchor Man
Step Brothers
Kung Pow: Enter The fist
Bad Santa
Napolean Dynamite
The Hangover
Superbad
Wedding Crashers
Forgetting Sara Marshall

I'm not sure how Children of Men is vastly overrated when it received very little financial success, not even making back its budget, and was only nominated for three academy awards. Yes, it received widespread critical acclaim, but I'm not sure how you can say a film based on those merits is "vastly overrated."
