Overrated

Rating: 5/10 (2 October 2006)

There are a lot of reviews here claiming this movie to be the greatest film of all time. My question to you guys is: how many movies have you actually seen in your lives? Honestly, this movie has nothing special, it is a pretty average movie with a really predictable plot. The only reason many like this movie, or at least they think they like the movie, is because it has won many Oscars. Oscars are by the way overrated as well. The guys who decide who's getting an Oscar wouldn't recognize something new even if it where right in front of them. They just love that struggling protagonist.And what the h*ll is Orlando Bloom doing? He acts as if this is his first time in front of a camera.
In the movie's defense though, it sometimes has its moments. But that is far from enough to justify such high ratings. It is an average movie,no more, no less.
