Whats a popular movie that you really dont like? And whats a little known or widely hated film that you love? Although there are bits of Saving Private Ryan that I really love (obviously the landing scene) I can never get past the plot. I just find it so outrageously dumb that so many people would sacrifice their life for one random guy. Whenever I mention the movie Dredd, people always think that Im talking about the Stallone movie. Dredd starring Karl Urban is an absolute masterpiece, but no one I know has ever heard of it.

Overrated: Before Sunrise (1995) - tedious and self-indulgent. I would rather have seen the play about the cow.

Underrated: After Hours (1985) - One of Scorsese's absolute best. Nightmarish, out-of-control, pitch-black comedy.

Did you mean for it to be Before and After or was that just a coincidence?

Ha - no I had not even noticed, at least consciously. The mind moves in mysterious ways.
