Overrated Movies

Young men dress up in armour that shows their muscle but doesn't protect them in battle. Good thing that none of the Persians noticed the exposed vital parts during the fight. Otherwise, the selective armour might have been a bad choice.

Then they meet in battle and employ ridiculously acrobatic moves. To writer/director: ever hear of the Greek Phalanx? Well, it isn't even close to what was shown in the film.

As for the demonic Persians? Embarrassingly over the top.

I was singularly unimpressed with this movie. The plot stretched credulity to the extreme. This DA being a big hero? Ya, right.

The joker's decent performance doesn't make up for an otherwise weak film.

Forrest Gump was an OK movie but best movie of the year? Not even close.

And don't quote that inane "life is a box of chocolates" line when I'm holding something sharp or I won't be able to answer for the consequences.

OK, this is an easy target but highest grossing movie until 2010 .. all that for a cheesy romance? Give me a break. I'm glad to see that the general opinion of this movie declines with the passage of time.

I liked Rocky when I saw it when I was a kid. But I watched it again recently and there isn't that much to it. Underdog exercises. Then he fights reasonably well.

An ok movie but not all it's been hyped up to be.

Let's not even talk about the dreadful sequels to the original.

Just like the book. Heavily overrated. All this fuss over an imaginary conspiracy theory.

Until this movie, I was a big fan of Bill Murray. When the critics raved over it, my expectations were even higher. So I figured that I was in for a really good film. But then ...

He shows up in Tokyo and hangs around here and there. Then the movie finally ends.

Huh?

I remember watching the video as a teen waiting for countless people to be cut up by chainsaws. But it's just a guy chasing people around with a chainsaw in his hand. Lots of running and screaming. And maybe he catches one? Not even sure about that.

It's not the sort of movie that I like these days anyway but I felt that it didn't deliver what it promised.

I like Daniel Day Lewis. But I just couldn't get into the film. Partly, it may be because I'm accustomed to having a sympathetic character somewhere in the film.

This film is about a nasty man doing nasty things. I found nothing to enjoy or interest me.

A guy looking into a mirror saying "you talking to me" is just not enough to make a so-so movie into a good one.

This is an OK kid's movie. But that's it. It's a movie for 8-year-olds.

Hitchcock did many good movies.

This was not one of them.
