Possibly the most overrated movie of all time. I'm glad that movie finally went away.

Not the least bit overrated.


Everyone bitching about "omg it was just like pocahontas" totally missed the point. The sheer amount of neon shit in that movie was mind blowing. Every where they stepped rippled with neon, mother tree or whatever was a giant neon weeping willow, neon plans that disappeared when touches, flying dragon creature things that you fly through the neon forest on. Blue people running up and down through the neon forest.

Best movie ever.

Spent around 100 bucks that night for the cab ride, movie tickets, beer, party favors, and cigs I chain smoked. Well worth every penny.


Amazing.

Who thought that movie was going to be amazing? When they said there was going to be a Taken 2 it was exactly what I expected. Liam's family gets taken, and he kills people. He also got taken, so it was a plus and made the movie even better. Did you really expect anything else from that movie?

This.

Avatar was definitely overrated. If I wasn't high as a kite and seeing it in IMAX 3D it would've been a complete waste of time.

Boondock Saints. Just can't seem to get into it.

Thats not necessarily what I look for in a great movie, but to each his own.

It's not like I called it horrible, I just don't think it's deserving of all the hype.

It was, without a doubt, one of the cheesiest movies I've ever seen. Completely unrealistic and boring. I could have written a better script. If I had more motivation I would pull up scenes, but for now, this pretty much embodies the pure cheesy-ness:

That whole era of nerdy kids doing "funny" things. (i.e. Superbad, Kickass)


Why do you guys think scar face was overrated? I thought it was on par. Oh, also Avatar. Fuck that movie. And project X.

one of the few.

But seriously, Zack Galfanakis sucks, Ben Stiller hasn't been good since zoolander, Steve Carrell always plays a stupid idiot, the other brother that isn't Will Farrell in step brothers isn't that funny, and both Seth Rogan and Jonah Hill have yet to impress me.

And because some of you will say OMG WHAT DO YOU ENJOY THEN, here are a few movies:

There's something about Mary
Zoolander
The naked gun series
Caddyshack
The great outdoors
National Lampoon's christmas vacation
Office Space
Death at a funeral (UK version, not the shitty american one)

I agree 100% with this post.
I actually didn't like Pineapple Express very much. Yeah, it was funny, but not nearly as good as everyone hypes it up to be.

Snatch is the shit. And to whoever said the Big Lebowski, you're out of your element Donnie. Walter didn't fight in 'Nam for people not to appreciate the movie. But I know plenty of people that don't like the movie either. And I think that Sunset Boulevard is really overrated. Even though it's super old, it still has pretty bad acting. And also, Apocalypse Now. Maybe I just didn't understand it. Great acting but I thought it had a really slow plot for it such an unfulfilling end.

saw it, was not impressed. granted it had its moments, but overall it was not as funny as I thought it would be.

On that note, Pitch perfect FAR surpassed my expectations, that australian girl is funny as shit and I was cracking up the whole time
