I loved the book, but the movie put me to sleep.

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.

"Time...to die."

The author doesn't get that. I don't get the author.

Exactly. And the problem is, even if your wife is a smart lady, if she watches that over & over, guaranteed she is accepting a lot of the lib premises

there is one with Meryl streep that was highly overrated

I believe there was an episode of Three's Company where there was a misunderstading.

The most over-rated? Anything by Mel Brooks.

"Blazing Saddles" and "High Anxiety."

17. Little Miss Sunshine:

Cute premise totally ruined by that guy from the Office, whom outside of that show is a horrible actor.

19. Juno:

I hate Michael Cera. One note Johnny whose novelty has long since worn off.

I read 2001 before I had seen the movie. I was in HS, and it was after Star Wars had come out.

I loved the book.

I have never made it through the movie without falling asleep.

HUGELY disappointing.

Disagree about “Annie Hall”, “American Grafitti” and “Blade Runner”—great films all. Agree about “Lost in Translation”. I would have picked “Napoleon Dynamite” instead of “Juno” for the list.

Lord of the Rings, It's was like watching other people play gauntlet

I kept on waiting to hear "Yellow Wizard Shot the Food" or "Green Elf is about to die"

Anything with Meryl Streep in it is overrated.

No with the exception of the original The Producers. Funniest comedy ever made.
