My pick: The Silence of the Lambs

Literally never got the hype, it's an aggressively mid movie. Not scary. No deeper message. Just a snoozefest of a movie.

Bonus Pick: The Godfather

Although I did like the movie, I didn't think it was top tier like its commonly placed. There's a ton of pro-AmeriKKKan propaganda and undertones in it as well.

Bonus bonus pick: The Matrix

I can see why people enjoyed it, the themes are interesting first time around. I just found the action scenes and Keanu Reeves character incredibly cringy. Kind of ruined it for me.

Alright Hexbear what are the most overrated movies in your opinion? Feel free to call me an uncultured pleb in the comments too.

Mother! is very widely disliked and arronofsky I would bet has cried in his bed about this.

It almost makes up for the fact that you can almost hear him masturbating behind the camera while muttering "I'M MAKING A ALLEGORY" to himself.

I saw it opening night in a completely empty theater, and the only reason I didn't walk out is because I was waiting for food to finish cooking in a crock pot at home. It still blows my mind that there were religious people who saw the movie and didn't manage to notice it's just a heavy-handed retelling of Genesis.

It would be overrated if a single person had ever said something positive about it.
