Over-rated films IMHO

Serenity (2005)
yeah well its all a bit meh - apart from Summer Glau looking very cute this was a snooze fest riding on the coattails of Joss Whedons Buffy fame
xxixii's rating:
People who added this item 4789 Average listal rating (3376 ratings) 8.1 IMDB Rating 8.4
Alien (1979)
its better than average but there are only 2 things which stop this being crap - the chestburster scene and the Giger alien design (though thats very lazy when you have seen his stuff) Its Hammer House Of Horror in space most of the time
xxixii's rating:
Arnies back and he just has to be the good guy and its all really not that good
xxixii's rating:
People who added this item 8623 Average listal rating (6212 ratings) 8.3 IMDB Rating 8.9
Pulp Fiction (1994)
John Travolta dancing, and weird ass dialogue doesnt make a good movie

Reservoir Dogs was very good but lets face it this film is just BS

as some critic said Tarantino makes films about films and have very little connection with reality

People who added this item 3872 Average listal rating (2736 ratings) 7.6 IMDB Rating 7.9
For a comedy horror this failed to deliver the appropiate things in each genre namely laughs and scares - mildly amusing only
xxixii's rating:
People who added this item 4208 Average listal rating (2786 ratings) 8.3 IMDB Rating 8.5
Psycho (1960)
very dated laughable "thriller" . soundtrack IS great though
xxixii's rating:
People who added this item 1307 Average listal rating (744 ratings) 7.2 IMDB Rating 7.2
Audition (1999)
I could hammer this film to death as to how bad it is...I must be the only person to prefer the first half of the film where its nicely set up and then its absurd horror time in the second half - I have NO problem with absurdity if its being played for laughs like in Human Centipede 2...even the torture at the end is lame

I could go on but its not that good a film...surprisingly for a so called disturbing film its quite tame
xxixii's rating:
People who added this item 3239 Average listal rating (1998 ratings) 7.9 IMDB Rating 7.9
utter pretentious slow BS typical of David Lynch making it up as he goes along to appear "mysterious" and "enigmatic"
Critics loved this for some unknown reason.

Good photography was the best, no, the only good thing about this

Can someone tell me why this is considered a great movie

xxixii's rating:

These are films which I think are good, maybe just ok and some I simply dont understand all the fuss...If I can I'll try to explain why I think they aint that good
