Completely agree. It was good, and I enjoyed it, but it seemed long-winded at times. As far as heist movies go, I prefer Inside Man and The Town a lot more.
Not to hijack the thread, but this is the most underrated scene ever. Pure cinematic perfection:

inception's story wasn't that original. The cartoon Duck Tales had a similar plot years before.

there was this one scene in the snow where they had guns, could have easily gotten out of that level but for some reason decided to do some other crap
and it's just sloppy writing. i mean the premise of the movie is in "a dream" so there are really no rules. anything that needed further info was just thrown on the audience.
a lot of things seemed to just "happen".
there's little background or explanation aside from totems and kicks.
additionally, you mention that "science" aspect to it. well then nolan which is it? a needlessly exhaustive movie visually that explains nothing? or an action film with no real plot (who is the hero? who is the villain?) that just continues to get weirder and weirder? there was no way it could have been both because it wasn't even one.
just very lazy in my opinion.

bruh...
any movie that you can see 3 times and thoroughly enjoy is cannot be in this thread.
if you remove the two main characters from a lot of movies, they'd suck.
i dont get what you're saying.
i will say that avatar was buns... and paid in full.. NT hypes it up too much.
scarface was absolute buns...
i think the truman show was SEVERELY underrated though... b/c it was jim carrey...

Not true at all. Stick to TAY. Friday had no storyline. Only reason it was watched was because of Ice Cube and Comedian Chris Tucker.
Who else could've played the role and made the movie what it was?
Movie was booty.

i was in that thread. i don't take those few people's opinions seriously as far as rating films.
common consensus is not that Paid in Full is a great film. it's a very entertaining hood flick.
and dude said "how could WE forget Friday?"

What a coincidence. I just saw this movie for the first time on friday.
I liked it. Overrated? I'd disagree. It's goofy as hell, but elements of the film were really innovative (especially William Dafoe's firefight scene)
Whoever said Requiem for a Dream was overrated doesn't have a conscious. I saw that film a year ago and I'll probably never get those images out of my head. That **** was incredible. I never wanna watch it again

To the dude who said taxi driver has lost his mind. Straight gritty cold New York movie. I think it's flawless.

(overrated by nt or otherwise)
beloved movies that you just don't see it...
for me
I thought George Jung was too uninteresting to love or hate enough to care about what happened to him in the end
and bad wigs
Couldn't agree with you anymore..just another deadbeat
My overrated movie has to b Scarface (1980?) go see the original..

Friday had no storyline? Stop it b. Here is the Dondada22 breakdown. If Craig didn't get fired from his job and start smoking that Friday morning, he wouldn't of been able to stop Lil Chris from knocking over trash cans, Debo from terrorizing the neighborhood, and helping Smokey get money he owed Big Worm. It had a problem, rising action, climax, and resolution.

It did nothing for me. Just a depressing series of montages of people degrading themselves for drugs. Ellen Burstyn was good and the editing was innovative, but the movie was misery porn. No thanks.Whoever said Requiem for a Dream was overrated doesn't have a conscious. I saw that film a year ago and I'll probably never get those images out of my head. That **** was incredible.

folks in here slandering Scorsese? I will nor allow it. The only film by him I didn't like was Aviator. I love Leo and Marty, but I hated that ****, movie was awful to me, but critics loved it.
Drive was pretty overrated. Tropic Thunder, pure ***.
