Movies others go nuts over that you just don't 'get'

For me it is Watchmen, ok I've not read the comic but I found the movie simply awful. Poor acting, big blue wang and a terribly predictable storyline.

Second up is Bladerunner, i found it enjoyable but not amazing. This could be because I didn't see it in its prime and the effects were quite common by the time I did. I tried the ne release recently but couldn't get going on it.

Second up is Bladerunner, i found it enjoyable but not amazing. .

And godfather series, enjoyable. But certainly far overrated.

I loved that film Watch it again... Dialogue and acting is awesome, the suspense the german colonel lends to that scene in the farmhouse... I nearly weed myself.

I think Gfather 3 is underrated. I get lots of abuse when I tell people it's my favourite out of the trilogy. Apparently at 16, people don't understand the word 'subjective'

Any of the Coen Brothers' films.

I agree with this, I watched the first one expecting big things, got half way through the second before giving up.

entirely agree - utter drivvel IMO.

Bladerunner I loved more for the set and the stunning imagination of the future.

Planet of the Apes gets on my wick...

The first one is extremely good, the second i only enjoyed the flashbacks with De Niro and quite frankly the whole movie should have been a prequel. The 3rd one is boring.

Raging Bull and Apocalypse Now.

Oh yeah, and Fight Club as posted above.

The Twilight trilogy. I refuse to call it The Twilight Saga as that just ups the pretentiousness even further. All the women I know are obsessed with it. It's terrible.

Toy Story, Finding Nemo, all of those ilk.

Dawsons Creek with Fangs

About half of Kubrick's work inc. A Clockwork Orange, Dr. Strangelove and 2001: A Space Odyssey. He may be one of the greatest directors ever by critical acclaim, and maybe it's just a coincidence that he happens to write and direct a lot of films I don't like, but I don't see the fascination. Love Full Metal Jacket though.

District 9 - I was told it was a great film but was total garbage.

I've never quite got into the Harry Potter stuff either.. The ones i have seen I've fallen asleep right in the middle.. Just never got them. Such a big following yet everyone I know who's into it says "oh the book's are better". So by their own self admission, they are carp!

The Deer Hunter.

Aye, it is.

I like all the films mentioned above, but I do think The Godfather films and Blade Runner are overrated.

Watchmen wasn't bad, but it's not a patch on the book.

Toy Story, Finding Nemo, all of those ilk.

I've got some bad news - you have no soul.
