I don’t know if it’s the worst, but Shakespeare in Love has to be the most overrated. How that movie ever beat out Saving Private Ryan for Best Picture is beyond me.

Saving Private Ryan was and is a great movie!

I propose a new rating scale called The Bad Factor. At some point, when you start thinking a movie is really bad, (A) guess how long you've been watching it, then (B) check how long it's been on. Divide A by B for your Bad Factor.

The converse would be true as well. Even good movies that are slowly paced don't seem long.

Not necessarily bad but very overrated:
The Hours
American Beauty

The Informant! with Matt Damon. My wife and I do not bother to pay for premium cable channels. Every few months or so we will get a free weekend, or once in a while a full month, of HBO, Cinemax or some other 'movie' channel. We will go through the schedule and record any movie that seems intriguing. Unfortunately I chose this one recently. This has to be one of the worst movies I have ever seen. It was so pointless and painful I wanted to reach into the t.v. and give Matt Damon a pounding. I barely made the first 30 minutes before deleting it.

THE worst movie I ever saw, and of course should have known, Exorcist II. Richard Burton must have been paid a fortune to star in that absolute bomb !

Michael---given your feelings about Matt Damon in The Informant you might want to pass on him in Downsizing when it shows up on TV
