    To an extent, so is TDK. However, everything with the Joker is solid Gold.

    Others:

    Matrix Trilogy
    The 2nd part of Full Metal Jacket
    The Dirty Harry Movies
    The Hangover
    Pineapple Express
    Super Bad
    Any movie with that Fat Kid from Super Bad.
    I don't even remember a single scene from the second part of FMJ.

    And can't agree with Superbad. One of the funniest movies ever for me.

      The second part of FMJ is saved by the ending, IMO.

        Although I liked it, I think The Hangover was heavily overrated. Also, I agree on Scarface - pretty crummy movie all around. Avatar got way too much praise considering its plot, which was fairly lame. Also, the whole Rush Hour series is unfunny trash, as was Epic Movie (worst comedy I've ever seen), and The Matrix was pretty awful as well besides the effects (Keanu Reeves is a terrible, terrible actor). Probably a lot more, but I'll restrain myself...

          Scarface is the ultimate wankster movie. Anyone who aspired to be a drug dealer but never actually sold drugs thinks it's the greatest thing ever.

          I'll throw in:

          Every 2008 Oscar movie (No Country, There Will Be Blood, Juno, etc)
          The Wrestler (great performance, not a great movie)
          Gran Torino
          Every biopic ever (aside from Ironman)
          Spiderman/XMen 1 and 2 (they man have been good at the time but after Ironman and the new Batman movies, they don't hold up well)
          Knocked Up

          Regarding The Hangover, I was disappointed the first time I saw it because I was expecting non-stop hilariousness, but after multiple viewings recently since it's been on HBO, I think it is a consistently funny movie.

            Gran Torino was such a bad movie. It consisted of Clint Eastwood saying whatever racial epithets he could think of while being surrounded by the worst supporting cast outside of a porn movie. I honestly have no idea why it got so much attention.

            If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                Adam Sandler Comedies. All of em

                And for the person who said There Will Be Blood is overrated, ...to each their own.....but its one of the best movies ever.

                Even if you watch it as a dark comedy.

                    While I could agree with 2 and 3 (although I never thought of them being extremely highly acclaimed) ...I would defend matrix 1 to the death. It's one of the best viewing experiences I've ever had in a theatre, it's extremely original and fantastically executed. It's a brilliant brilliant movie imo. Wow is it ever good.


                    I'll go with Avatar (saw it regular at home so I wasn't dazzled by the hype and 3D'ness)

                    Gladiator is overrated as a film. I don't know how Crowe won Beat actor for it and although many aspects of it are great, overall it's for sure overrated as a film.

                    Knocked up. not nearly as funny as I thought it would be and what people would have me believe.



                    Guess what! AS a FILM BUFF I"M GOING TO SAY THE UNIMAGINABLE

                    THE GODFATHER!

                    Because I just said something so bold I'm going to watch again soon just to make sure. But honestly, it's not the holy grail of movies to me and isn't even in my top 20 maybe 30 hell maybe 40 or 50 lol.

                    To me it's one of those things that people just say because everyone else says. Like Ali being the greatest of all time (when it was really SRR) or something of that nature. The whole "it's the perfect movie" bullcrash I can't listen to.

                        Gotta agree with this. That movie had to have had the worst supporting cast of all time, just a bunch of horrible actors and Eastwood playing a cliche cranky old racist. Not a very enjoyable film at all imo.

                        I really can't believe some of the movies being listed in here.

                          Scarface is pretty terrible.

                            Some of the recent Adam Sandler films haven't been that good, but man I have to disagree on all of them. The Waterboy was so funny IMO

                              I'd actually say quite a few of Sandler's movies are underrated. Like Waterboy; pretty good movie but it got slammed by a lot of reviews, and gets pretty mediocre user ratings. Even Billy Madison which is a good comedy got pretty **** reviews.

                              I'd say his comedies don't get enough respect.
