Philadelphia was the most overrated movie I can think of. All movies that Sean Penn has been in (Shanghai Surprise, I am Sam, 21 Grams, Milk, etc) were very overrated.
Taps was pretty good, but then again, Penn was somewhat of a bit player.
Philadelphia was saved by Tom Hanks who’s always great in movies (maybe not so much in real life) and Denzel Washington.
It had one of the stupidest premises ever and was maudlin and manipulative.
Sean Penn was in The Game and Mystic River. Both very, very good films. I can’t stand him, but he was really good in Mystic River.
Ditto on that.
