Overrated and Disappointing Films Movie Chat

[Amelia]

JoJo Rabbit. It was not in the slightest bit funny or remotely interesting, in my opinion.

 

[Ginger Ted]

Lost in Translation

Bill Murray/Scarlett Johannson

Won a stack of awards and got rave reviews. I thought it was rubbish

 

[Spikey]

Overrated

The Irishman - awful awful movie, mind numbing boring, long, ropey CGI. Little more than an excuse to get the band back together one last time.

Disappointing

The Many Saints of Newark - when I heard this was coming out I was excited for years, a new chapter from the Sopranos universe. I mean Sopranos to me was one of the greatest show ever. The movie was just so poor, a few Easter eggs in there but I hoped it would stand out and it was just another generic gangster movie.

I always thought The Matrix was overrated. It came out a quarter of a century ago so maybe back then it was worthy of the praise.

First one was class IMO.

The second and third were terrible. Tried watching the latest one and turned it off after 30 minutes.

Many Saints of Newark. Terrible film. Plot holes everywhere.

I thought Mad Max Fury Road was fairly awful.

 

[Black Sheep]

I thought Mad Max Fury Road was fairly awful.

Me too.

I didn't get it but it was on lots of "film of the year" lists.

 

[Hedonistic Blonde]

The Shape of Water was poor. How it won the "Best Picture" Oscar I've no idea.

Also...

Arrival. I just don't know why people liked it so much. Utterly boring.
