Default Overrated Movies

I saw "300" for the first time recently and I must admit I do not get what all of the hype was about for that movie. It was awful, not even the least bit entertaining. What are some movies you have seen that you think are overrated.

High School Musical actually.

Because they built that movie up on disney channel for like 5 months...

I watched it and was like, its pretty good but seriously, not like the most amazing thing ever.

Transformers 2, not so much over rated but the hype and the expectations before it's release were huge, and then it was ****!

i just have a problem with message movies....the ones that hit you over the head with it- heavy handed ones. and as for slumdog- well i think it's a travesty to belittle the plight of any people in poverty when you just go for cheap fairytale thrills at the end. it felt a bit wrong - especially encorporating who wants to be a millionaire into it- a western game show will end his suffering? i don't know....it was just wrong for me on many levels

dark knight was great. i didn't listen to the hype and just tried to judge it on it's own merits. real product of our times. the intense paranoia and unsettling nature of it. ok, it might be too full of stuff..... like nolan went into overdrive cuz it was a sequel, but no, it's class. editing, direction, acting, music. i didn't want it to end.
