I know it's crazy to bring up a movie from 38 years ago but I just saw it for the first time. That movie sucked and I want the 2 hours of my life back.
Ferris Bueller at least had it's moments but it isn't the classic people make it out to be.Agree about ET. While we are talking about overrated movies, Ferris Buellers Day Off sucks as well.
Never saw it or close encounters.I know it's crazy to bring up a movie from 38 years ago but I just saw it for the first time. That movie sucked and I want the 2 hours of my life back.
Never saw ET but have close encounters. It was too slow and boring.Never saw it or close encounters.
I hate, HATE, HAAAATE 2001: A Space Odyssey. I’ve tried to watch it 3 times and I can’t do it. I get that it broke boundaries in special effects at the time. But no matter how “visually stunning” it was, I just find 6 minutes & 9 camera angles of a guy floating in space to be pretentious and self-indulgent.
I felt the same way. I actually thought Casablanca was pretty awesome though.I've watched Citizen Kane many times. A decent flick but the greatest movie ever made? I just don't see it. Film noir? OK.

Never saw ET until I was an adult although I was a teen in the 80’s. Didn’t see anything special about it. Maybe I would have enjoyed it when I was younger?

Just for the record. I have never seen ET or Titanic.
I agree with everything there except, I gotta admit, I freakin love The Matrix. Super interesting concept, and I loved the execution of it, although I could see someone feeling like the effects were a bit over the top. The sequels.....eh.... not so much.Citizen Kane - OK, but the greatest? Nope. Casablanca >>> Citizen Kane
A lot of Best Picture winners were downright boring - too many to name.
I know this will nullify all future takes but I thought Pulp Fiction was a shit movie. I HATE Tarantino movies: comic book-levels of ridiculously over the top violence, not much/if any plot, just tedious in the extreme. Kill Bill, PF, Django - watched them and quickly forgot them. Just not enjoyable or clever or particularly well-made. I know - I'm wrong but that's my opinion.
All of the Matrix movies were just a metaphysical mess of goofy nihilism and pop psychology. Way overrated.
