Titanic goes without saying at this stage.

From recent memory it would be The Departed, Crash, Slumdog, A Beautiful Mind and Mystic River. From earlier I'll go with Das Boot, Goodfellas, Out of Africa, Some Like it Hot and a few of Wayne's Westerns didn't do much for me, like Rio Bravo. Oh, and Forrest Gump.

I'd agree with Forrest Gump, probably cos it's quoted so much. Twilight films deffo, and yeah Slumdog, way too much hype.

Yeah, guess it is for the tweens. Harry Potter films are quite overrated really, most the of time the acting is diabolical.

I watched Twilight just to see what all the commotion was about.... absolute garbage and I'm a big aficionado of vampire flicks. Silly, plotless teen romance flick shrewdly wrapped in a gothic coat to appeal to the forlorn teen brigade. I wouldn't mind if it had a sharp script or some element of wit involved but it was sorely lacking in really any sparkle.

Although most say the book is better.

Yep, one for the Emo's and all those daydreaming girls who'd love to get carried away.

Good call with Tarantino's stuff. Hey, I like them but yeah, they're hugely overrated.

I like Titanic. Always have, always will.

If anyone says Gone with the Wind, I'll have to slit your throat.

As much as I love this film, Grease. Just look at the storyline. Boy meets girl. Boy rejects girl because she's too "pure". Girl turns into a dirty slut. Boy gets back with girl. Bearing in mind, this is all still in high school! How would people react if this was in modern day Britain? :P
