1. Wonder Woman
2. Beauty and the Beast
3. Fast and Furious 8
They're all shit.
I enjoyed Get Out, but it is definitely overrated. It has no right being the best reviewed "horror" film ever.

Luckily it is not: http://www.metacritic.com/browse/movies ... =condensedFrom what I've seen so far of 2017 movies: Beauty and the Beast Wonder Woman Logan The Lego Batman John Wick: Chapter 2 Get Out All of these are HIGHLY overrated.

Re: Most Overrated Movies of 2017 Is Beauty and the Beast that highly rated? It only has 71% at RT and in the 60s at MC. It's not like anyone besides hardcore Disney fans (like myself) were proclaiming it the best film ever.

The reception on the BO (who the f*** went to watch it week after week????) makes it overrated IMHO. It hugely broke out as if it was some must see movie. When in fact it's borderline terrible.

Re: Most Overrated Movies of 2017 Wonder Woman is solid but overrated.

Re: Most Overrated Movies of 2017 I couldn't think of a film at first, but that would be solidly on the top of my list (too) as most overrated.

Re: Most Overrated Movies of 2017 I'm interested as to what happened between 10th June and 18th July that made _axiom start to censor his fucks.

Re: Most Overrated Movies of 2017 Dunkirk93% on RT.  It's only a matter of time until Dunkirk takes its rightful place as an all-time classic case study on groupthink.

Re: Most Overrated Movies of 2017 Agree. Followed by the 92% obtained by Wonder Woman. Another prime example of groupthink.

Re: Most Overrated Movies of 2017 Wonder Woman: Good, but not "OMG it's life-changing!!!!" either.
Guardians 2: the Ghostbusters 2 of the Marvel Universe. I still do not understand why so many gave it a pass.
Baby Driver: Starts great, gets progressively worse. The last 20 minutes or so are near-bad.

Re: Most Overrated Movies of 2017 For me it's easily Wonder Woman and that's mostly because of how much I just didn't like it. Sure their are others like Baby Driver, Dunkirk and even Get Out, but at least I liked those movies to some degree.

Re: Most Overrated Movies of 2017 War for the Planet of the Apes is gawdawful - not worthy to carry the Planet of the Apes name - 93% on RT is a joke.

Re: Most Overrated Movies of 2017 Get Out is simultaneously a decent, modest, at times clever horror movie and incredibly overrated. I bet it winds up nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars.

Re: Most Overrated Movies of 2017 Get Out was decent, but I saw the twist and heavy handed message coming a mile away.

Re: Most Overrated Movies of 2017 Wonder Woman for me. There are others link Dunkirk, GotG2, John Wick 2, Kong but the WW gets it by a mile. I do think BatB was slightly overrated as well but not because of its BO.

Re: Most Overrated Movies of 2017 Wonder Woman, Guardians of the Galaxy 2, and Baby Driver off the top of my head. Did I mention Baby Driver? Well I feel I need to mention Baby Driver one more time due to all the fawning I've seen from the internet generation over it.

I don't think Get Out will get nominated for Best Picture though it could get a few nominations.
