Highly Rated Movies That You Think Are Overrated
- Thread starter Moral
- Start date
Friend and I dropped acid and went to Star Wars when it first came out, Movie was pretty entertaining and being able to understand what Chewbacca was saying added to the experience.
No Country for Old Men. Maybe I need to give it another shot, but damn it was boring AF
I wouldn’t call it one of the all-time best movies but it was outstanding, especially for its time. There are a handful of scenes that I could watch over and over. My favorite was when the young Bulgarian bride came to Rick for advice. When she asks Rick if Capt Renault will keep his word, the look of pure contempt on Rick’s face as he said “he always has” was perfection.

Going to trigger some people, but There Will Be Blood, while I can appreciate some aspects of it, isn’t even in Paul Thomas Anderson’s OR Daniel Day Lewis’ top 3. I just didn’t care, and Paul Dano was miscast, imo
saw The Notebook for the first time ever a few months ago.
Terrible.

I was thinking of the Big Lebowski as well. I just didn't get it.
Mad Max Fury Road
After JarJar Binks, I haven't watched a new Star Wars since (so all of the new ones basically)
V for Vendetta

For Lebowski, just let the absurdity wash over you and let go of anything making sense. Pretty enjoyable after that. That said, I couldn't get into Mad Max, so maybe I need to take my own advice.
Maybe I should eat a gummy and watch BL, see if I get it.
Perhaps you can drink a glass of human milk and get a sunburn to watch?
You first!
I've watched Fury Road twice now and it just is meh. We talked about it in another thread, I just don't get the hype.

It’s the movie that kicked off Imogen Poots’ career. She gets bonus points for dressing like a Ravenclaw student.
I dig your style, man. Let's have a couple white Russians sometime.
It's good knowing he's out there. The Dude. Takin' her easy for all us sinners.
I wanted to like it. I fell asleep when trying to watch any of the trilogy. Peter Jackson falls in love with his footage and won’t cut out scenes for the betterment of his films.
Oh, I was just shit posting to support you! I thought they were pretty good, not great. I also didn't feel obligated to watch them all so have missed at least one I think.
Titanic. My wife (no pics) made me watch it for the first time about a year ago. My comment at the end of the movie was
"I'd be pissed if I was Rose's husband about the fact when she was on her deathbed, she wasn't thinking of her husband she spent most of her life with. It was of some poor bastard she spent a few days with 80 years ago"
Wife didn't appreciate that comment

Ehh but if you got a 100 people to list off their top 10 movies of all time would Avengers Endgame make the list very often??
Maybe I am wrong but I don't think the super hero movies have the staying power that some of these other titles have.
If they do then I agree.
Since most seem to ignore the "highly rated" qualifier in the OP...I'll do the same.
Princess Bride. It's a weak attempt to be Monty Python-esque.

American Beauty. I wanted to kick the s**t out of every single character because they annoyed me so much.
Plus it has the worst Kevin in it. As decided by HORT in the worst Kevin voting.
I’ll give critics of Endgame this much. - if it has a flaw, to me it’s that there’s many callbacks to the previous films that if you missed any of them you wouldn’t get.
Yeah, I’ve seen both fury road and furiosa. Both are well-made movies, liked them. Just don’t think they’re masterpieces.
Joker I’d have liked a lot more had they not shoehorned the origins of Batman in there. Also, we’re supposed to then buy that Batman’s archenemy is ~20 years older than him?
That's funny. I remember my parents expressing a similar sentiment.
