I'm not insulting you, and I know these are all perceived as fantastic films, so it's nothing personal either, but these are all probably in my top 10 most overrated films ever Laughing Along with Goodfellas, Atonement and The Graduate.

Really? Atonement is rated high enough that your bemoan it's overratedness? I like it, agree it's not as great as some make it out to be. But I rarely hear it spoken of as truly great. Same goes for T2. It's, amongst action novie fans a classic of classics, but otherwise I can't see that as a critic's pick highly rated movie in the first place.

As for Saving Private Ryan and The Matrix, I adore them. They're top 25 in my list. I guess its all relative, but I feel those movies "deserve" their laurels and accolades.

It might just be because it was really popular when I was just starting to get into film. I thought it was utter boredom. I rewatched it about 4 years later and still thought it was utter boredom. Neutral The only rewarding part is the last 45 seconds, and that really shouldn't be what a film is striving for Laughing

It might not be considered 'one of the best films ever', I know what you mean, but it still won a shit ton of awards. It even got the Golden Globe over No Country For Old Men, There Will Be Blood and Eastern Promises.

Any overrated list without Donnie Darko is overrated.

7 In Bruges (2008)
8 The Shawshank Redemption (1994)
9 Repo! The Genetic Opera (2008)
10 Man On The Moon (1999)
10 Big Hero 6 (2014)
10 Godfather Part II (1974)

Those three at the 10 spot are just way too different for me to pick one.

Oh, and because I always think it's weird and am looking for films for him, here are all the movies my brother would give at least an 8.5 to:

1 The Shawshank Redemption (10/10 perfect movie for him)
2 The Truman Show (like a 9)
3 Interstellar
4 Toy Story
5 Toy Story 3
6 Incredibles

IIRC that's it for him. If anyone has ideas on other movies he might like, that'd be great.
