Most Overrated Movies on IMDb's Top 250

The Top Ten
1 The Dark Knight

Ok let's see some of the dark knight flaws:

1)Little to no two face: Don't get me wrong, he wasn't suppose to be the main focus of the film or even some of them but he is one of the most complex and most interesting characters in batman history, and this movie didn't do him justice (no pun intended). And yes I know he is really good as Harvey Dent, but when he becomes two face, not only he becomes a "practically" different character, but his transformation from hero to villain (mentally) is kinda rushed

2)Christian Bale as batman: He doesn't blend in with the character very well and he is not that interesting in this movie particularly (if you want more of why Christian Bale doesn't really seem like a good casting choice for batman, check out Nostalgia Critic's:old vs new Batman vs the dark knight)

3) The batman voice: I know a lot of people have been making fun of this voice, but I needed to address it. This voice is just so silly, and it is really distracting ...more

Like it the first time because the Joker (overrated himself as he has no emotional depth, just laughs in every scene) but the second time; actually playing attention to the story, it was just plain silly.

Heath ledger's performance was the best of all time,awesome score by Hans zimmer and amazing story and quotes...not overrated and simply the movie of all time

A movie that is awesome but a disgrace for batman!...considering this to be one of the best movies of all time is ABSURD!

2 American Beauty

I don't think this film is very good at all.

The USA made much better films

3 The Shawshank Redemption

The fans of this film are the most annoying bastards on Earth. If you go onto reddit and say something bad about it, the Shawshank fanboys will jump down your throat.

It's a great movie, but I don't think it belongs in the top spot.

Shouldn't even be on 250; its average movie, one time view only

Very good movie, but kind surprising its on top.

4 The Dark Knight Rises

For this movie to be on IMDb's top 250 is favoritism at its worst.

The worst movie on imdb top 250.

Terrible film!

This movie sucks.

5 Marvel's The Avengers

I just don't understand the overpowering popularity of this film. Yes, it is an entertaining summer popcorn movie with lots of action and special effects. But is it really of great quality that deserves to be compared to classic award-winners? I just don't see it.

This movie sucked. I hated this movie. A horrible film.

This movie sucks

Feel like watching Transformers: Dark Of The Moon twin brother. Too much CGI for me sometimes makes any recent film include this one cheap and crap.

6 Amelie

This Movie is really boring! For Sure it's an overrated movie

7 The Matrix

The most overrated pseudo-intellectual movie ever made.

Does anyone still care bout it no Kay then

8 Braveheart

Mel Gibson's 1994 vanity project is not only vaguely insulting, but also somewhat sloppy in construction. There are some great action scenes, but Mel Gibson's weak acting and directing, as well as ridiculously inaccurate historical 'truths' (for example: Kind Edward actually died after Wallace, having begun invading Scotland again) and a lack of general intrigue. It is a juvenile, sloppy mess.

One of the worst films on IMDb's Top 250.

9 Scarface

I think criminals gave most of the IMDb votes to this movie.

10 Django Unchained

I'm really surprised that this is in the top 250.

The Contenders
11 Kill Bill: Volume 1

It's weird that many similar films made before this one aren't even placed that high on imdb. Not that they deserve to. This dumb movie don't deserve to either. I guess this one was placed higher than those similar films because this film had a blonde woman as the main character and those similar movies didn't.

12 2001: A Space Odyssey
13 Saving Private Ryan
14 Fight Club

It's ironic that a movie that wasn't very big when it first came out would later become one of the most overrated movies ever.

This should be no. 1. Stupid movie!

15 Inception

Pretty good and fun to watch. But what is just listed a second ago is why Inception should not be the 13 greatest movie ever it is more of an action movie.

Good movie, but overrated by unintelligent morons.

The film is weird, but that don't make it a masterpiece.

16 Interstellar

Christopher Nolan is the most overrated director on IMDb.

Christopher Nolan gets way too much credit from his fans.

17 Pulp Fiction

The most overrated piece of useless trash I've ever seen

This did not entertain me in the slightest.

18 Zootopia

Frozen deserved to be on the Top 250 more than this terrible Shark Tale rip-off aimed at furries.

It was a good movie, but not top 250 worthy

19 Black Swan
20 Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark
21 La La Land

Boring and pointless. I never understood the hype. To be fair I come from the land of musicals, but Hollywood's musicals are not my cup of tea. Anyway, this one just felt flat with me and I just came out feeling I wasted 2 hours of my life. Definitely didn't deserve an Oscar. What was so path breaking or special about this film?

Its Not Bad But Its Overrated

22 Forrest Gump

This film should be much higher on this list.

23 Citizen Kane

Worst ending ever..Rosebud is negligible.

24 Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope

This film should be in the top 10 of this list. Many of the other films on IMDb's Top 250 are underrated compared to this overrated film. Some of the films on this list aren't even on IMDb's Top 250 anymore.

I guess not many people had discovered this list, since Star Wars, which should be in the top 5 of this list, is not even in the top 25 of this list.

A very overrated start to the most overrated movie franchise ever.

How in the world was this not on this list sooner?

25 A Clockwork Orange

I'm not saying this is a bad movie but is sure is detestable for me, and that's not just because of its moral message. The entire wreaks of disgusting visuals and putrid acting/dialogue. I wish this movie had never been made, but of course because its Kubrick its hailed as a controversial masterpiece. Controversy does not equal cinematic genius and neither does that sickening facial expression and glass of milk. I hate having to see this in a top 100 movies of all time, and speaking from an objective stance it really isn't that good.

Who the hell added this here? A Clockwork Orange is a true masterpiece. I can only assume that if you don't like it, you're not intelligent enough to understand it.
