Ezen Baklattan Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I can kind of add Hunger Games here. The first act is excellent, but the second feels a lot weaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozymandias Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 how is Prometheus overrated when it seems most people hate it?I wouldn't say most people hated it. Its just that the reaction to it is extremely polarizing. The people that liked either seem to think its good or the second coming of scifi christ genre saver whie and the people hated it want everyone associated with killed by Jason Voorhees.

Ozymandias Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 (edited) Top 3 most overrated films of year:The AvengersLincolnHunger GamesI definitely agree with those 3 the most, especially Lincoln and Hunger Games. The funniest part about Lincoln is that it was historically innaccurate in some parts. Also, Lincoln wasn't the saint that a lot of modern historians and Hollywood make him out to be over and over again.

fishstick Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 As far as fanboys go, TH is the most overrated. It seems like they are now banding together to promote that it`s in no way too long or tedius ever since it took critical beating (well, not even beating just that other blockbusters impressed much more). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webslinger Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I would say Cloud Atlas, but it had enough detractors that it doesn't feel quite right calling it overrated.Other than that, I'd say The Grey. I liked it and I thought Liam Neeson did a stellar job, but it didn't blow me away as it did other viewers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

achooo Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 TASM for me. Was it necessary to make this - Same movie, different faces - not as good as the original. Why did this make $260m ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilmac Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) I predict that the inevitable adaptation of 50 Shades of Grey will be OVERRATED - whenever it comes out. Edited December 20, 2012 by lilmac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Imo from an overal POV, TA and Skyfall are not overated because they delievered as advertised.They exceed critical, aduience and box office expectations... TDKR was promised to be one of the best films ever and as great as TDK and it was a step down for sure and I think as time goes on, the film will not stick in people's mind like TDK did...The Grey was just boring and depressing.... The year of 2012 has made me realized that films don't have to be so dark and depressing to be good.I loved TDK and its one of most favourite movies of all tim, but for some reason after TDK the thinking became that all films have to be dark to be good.Well 2012 just spat on that way of thinking and I would love to see a balance of light hearted fun and dark epics... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acab Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 The Hunger GamesTedThe Dark Knight RisesAll decent movies but nothing special and really flawed.As far as critics' reviews go Killing Them Softly and Seven Psychopaths. I really wanted to like them but i couldn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
