My son said to put down the Deer Hunter.

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.

+1 The Deer Hunter was garbage, except Meryl Streep was hot.

I was teaching 7th grade when Titanic came out. The girls all thought Leo was dreamy.

American Beauty was trash.
