Most Over-rated Movies Within The Last Decade

Since there is a thread for favourite movies within the last 5 years and I am a HUGE critic I can not but help create a thread to bash the most over-rated movies within the last decade. List a reason why you thought the movie sucked hardcore as well.

To start:

Batman Begins (2005) -- While Christopher Nolan did bring the Batman saga back alive I can not help but say that he tried far too hard to impress and whilst he had much to live up to I felt this movie fell flat on its face in many repects. I very much enjoyed his dark atmosphere but nothing seemed original as he seemed to borrow elements from various movies such as The Crow. Apart from that his previous work Memento had me amazed that I had HUGE expectations for this movie.

LoTR Trilogy -- Whilst I have never read the books I do know for a fact it is one of the few book to movie adaptations that stay true to the context and to bring such books to life on the big screen was very hard to say the least. Personally though I just could not stay glued to the screen for 3+hrs for each film. That journey for Frodo must have been a long one but sitting thru this trilogy felt like an Eternity.

I don't think Snakes on a Plane was rated as a decent movie.

They just had AMAZING marketing behind the film.

But ever since i first heard of the movie, i thought it was oging to be crap.


Any of you guys do the Phone thing for Snakes on a Plane? You got to chose different options and a recording of Samuel L. Jackson would call whoever haha.

Absolutely hilarious!

Requiem for a dream.

Utter crap and did nothing to impress me. Nothing to get hyped up about whatsoever.

Batman Begins >>>>>>>Batman Returns, actually anything after the original
