The movies I think are way to overpraised are these CGI heavy movies that make billions of dollars.
These films I like to call CGI Porn.
Transformers (especially 2 & 3)
X-Men Last Stand
Avatar
Spider-Man 1 & 3
Battleship
Armageddon
Independence Day
Star Wars Episode's 1-3
Total Recall (remake)
Fast and Furious movies
GI Joe
Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull
Clash of the Titans (1 & 2)
Twilight movies
to name a few... I know people who LOVE these movies and defend these as great films. Sure some can be watched if you leave your brain at the door and think of them as your watching a silly cartoon and they are not supposed to make sense.
Then there's the films that people love to death and I could never get into these films, always thought they where overrated movies. But most people include these as a great classic movie.
The Lost Boys
Top Gun
Pretty Woman
Dirty Dancing
I'm sure I could go on, oh and The Back to the Future Films are one of the best fun films ever made. While yes there's a few flaws in it's sequels but I can watch these over and over and still love them. Are they "family friendly" for the most part yes. But does a movie have to be not family friendly to be good? It's story is so well thought out especially the first one, the sequels you can punch a few holes into if you wanna get nit-picky. It's the characters are what really sell these movies.
And speaking of time travel, I'll watch Back to the Future 1-3 any day over that overrated Looper.
Nuff said.
