AniNate Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 It's kind of silly to include Tree of Life into an overrated list. That film was bound to be incredibly divisive, and it's not like it was really universally praised to begin with. Some view it as a masterpiece, others think it's awful....it's just the way a film like that's gonna go.Yeah, but most critics who saw it thought the former.

DAR Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Personally, I didn't fall in love with Bridesmaids the way a lot of people did.Yeah it was funny, but won't on too long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterDodsen Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 I really gotta say that the most overrated film last year was Bridesmaids. With all the hoopla over it, it was really just... meh. Nothing like I thought it would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noctis Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Clearly DH2 isn't overrated on this forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessie Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 DH2 - 96%? Come on. If it wasnt the final film it wouldn't have had a score that high.Drive - its good but it's no masterpiece.XMFC - the kids were just very annoying, and when the stupid butterfly girl flew around chasing that other kid, i cringed so hard in embarrassment.Apes - it had great trailers but the film just seemed quite empty to me. It's not a bad film, but people were so shocked of how good this looked that everyone felt the need to fall in-love with it.MI:4 - dare I say I preferred number 3? If brad birds name wasn't on the wrapper I doubt this would have had a 90%+ RT score. It just seems the reviewers have their heads so far up the Pixar crews arses.

BK007 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 ^ I swear I've seen you post the same thing multiple times now.Yes, we know you don't like DH2 and MI4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Pretty much the entire Best Picture field was overrated by the Academy and most critics, save for Hugo (still don't think most people really "got" that movie). Even the Artist is overrated, although it's a good film. As for well liked movies online I'd definitely say the decent but entirely generic R rated comedy Bridesmaids takes the cake (seriously what's so special about it?), and then Apes. I also hate to say it but after a year to really evaluate it DH2 really did not deserve its stratospherically high 96%/8.4 average rating on RT. I still like it and all but it has its issues, more and more of which become apparent with each viewing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessie Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 ^ I swear I've seen you post the same thing multiple times now.Yes, we know you don't like DH2 and MI4.I've never mentioned MI4. I'm just doing what the title asks, posts the movies I find over-rated, is there a problem with that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawa Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I wasn't able to think of one, until Super 8 was mentioned. The fact that I forgot I saw it should tell you what I thought of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ariadne Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 My most over-rated film of the year was 'The Help', I can't believe it was nominated for Best Picture. It was just boring and cliched, Bryce Dallas Howard should have got an Oscar nom over Jessica Chastain though - how she got a nom for that I do not know.

Cedarpoint1111 Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Like many have said on here, Bridesmaids was pretty overrated. Besides the dress fitting scene, the movie was not that funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
