What is with everyone???

Rating: 1/10 (17 December 2000)

This is the most overrated movie since Titanic. If you liked Titanic, i'm sorry for you. American Beauty is the most contrived, forced attempt to make an "artsy" film I have ever seen. The script is, at most times, so terrible it is painful to watch. I cannot believe this one an Oscar over The Insider and that it is so highly rated.
