Scarface

A Clockwork Orange (actually, most of Kubric's movies are overrated).

Anything done by Christopher Nolan. I can respect what he's done, just personally don't see what a lot of other people do.

*This is of course coming from a huge David Lynch fan, who could easily be included in this thread in his own right....

I don't love all of the movies on the list, but the person who wrote it is an idiot. Basically, the only criteria to qualify as an overrated movie according to this author is that the movie is long. Dude, not our fault your attention span isn't good enough to follow a long movie!

The most overrated movie of all time is Crash, which won an oscar but is mind-numbingly stupid and shallow drivel.

Couldn't agree more. When I watched I thought I had watched the wrong movie. Oscar winner?! SMH

Anything with Nic Cage. That guy couldn't act his way out of a high school drama class.

This implies his movies are rated favorable. Do you know anyone with a favorable opinion of him and his movies

They love it.

I treat Nic Cage movies the same as Skip Bayless/Stephen A. Smith......when any of them pop on my TV I change the channel to anything else as fast as I can. I can't stand giving them my viewership.

How do you feel about McConaughey in True Detective? Assuming you've seen it which might not be true

Not a huge fan of the kill bill movies. Pulp fiction, inglorious bastards, and django unchained are all mehhh.

But Reservoir Dogs is the the SHIT!!! Fucking love that movie.

I think it's safe to say Tommy Wiseau or Vincent Gallo's cinematic brilliance won't be shredded here, seeing they are "rated" only in their own delusional minds.

I find that most people that like Nic Cage movies like them because they are presumably "in on the Nic Cage joke." Not because they actually think he is a great actor.

As for me, I think The Matrix Trilogy is largely overrated (let the flaming commence).
