Most overrated films of all time

The Smurfs. I think i’ve made my reasons for this being overrated right there.

It holds 21% in Rotten Tomatoes. And everyone says it’s awful.

Hardly overrated.

I’d say Avatar. Even though it has good visuals and a good soundtrack, there’s nothing else special about it.

Same here. Only difference is that I didn’t enjoy the soundtrack, so it was even less special to me.

I was just thinking about that. An overrated film is a film that everyone loves and is highly rated, but you think doesn’t deserve the attenion.

Am I allowed to say that some Pixar films are thus overrated, as much as I love them? :slight_smile:

To me, one of the most overrated films is The Wizard of Oz.

Granted, it was a technical achievement for that time, and I get the praise, but I don’t think the movie is much more than that.

Sorry, I know there are always huge fans of it.

^ I feel the same way seen the movie 100 times with my mom nothing special about it to me.

Yes. I also think the soundtrack is overrated. Some good cues, but I’ve heard it contains the “best film songs ever”, which is an opinion I don’t share one little bit.

I have to disagree with that one.

The movie had a political message in there and had a lot of heart as well. It was a great movie and timless classic.

Another movie overrated though is ET. It looked beautiful but there wasn’t much there otherwise.

Now it’s my turn to disagree 8D

To me, E.T. is a masterpiece.

Lol. Nice we both disagreed with each other’s chocies.

ET looked nice and I saw it yung and thought I’d love it, but it felt boring.

I might watch it again and see if I was too young to apperciate it or if I was right but yur not the only person who thinks its a materpeice.

Which Ones? (popping knuckles)

Upruns and hides

Pixar can be over rated, no movie studio is perfect.

Phew! No need to run and hide after all. :smiley:

Ah ok DefineDancing, you can be spared. I haven’t seen Up yet.

Oh, it’s a brilliant film and it’s heartwarming, but a lot of people I know think it’s their best work and I disagree. It just feels very disjointed and I find some of the characters rather annoying.

I agree. I’m glad Gone With the Wind won the Oscar instead!

Oh, yes. I cringe every time I read Oz was snugged that year :angry:
