I would never flame someone for their taste in movies. There are a lot of flavors out there to suit all of us. We all have our genre, cast, issue preferences. Yours are different than mine but so what. You and I are both right.
Some movies that I positively disliked won big time.. Like Leaving Las Vegas. I KNOW it was well acted & interesting, but I swear I have never been so down in a movie
I think too that whatever we are experiencing in life at the time has some impact .. and also one’s age.
I truly dont get into the Justin Beeber movies or Miley Cyrus.. just as my granddaughter probably would not like Kill the Irishman (which I did like)
so I Still Care.. you just enjoy what you want & dont worry if anyone else agrees. You are you!

I guess my main criteria for an “overrated” movie, is to find out the REAL reason there is so much “talk” about it, is because it reinforces a certain political correctness, not because it really is a good movie. Or it has the “right” director, or theme, or color people.
It’s like a fad. Everyone gets on the bandwagon. Then you go see it, and suddenly the light goes on - aha! That’s why all the critics were going berserk.
Biggest problem was that it was filmed in Detroit. Cleveland never looked as bad as some of the areas of that film looked. Collinwood doesn't look that bad now.
However our former idiot Governor Ted ‘Loose a 1/2 million Jobs’ Strickland and the previous Dem run statehouse didn't want to give tax breaks to the movie.
