Jaws 2 has one of the most underrated John Williams soundtracks out there. Almost every piece in this score is awesome, and it’s a film I’m glad exists because of the score.
Shrek 3 is a good movie.

I agree the score is great its the only thing i find worthwhile about that film.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is massively overrated. It’s oversimplistic, repetitive, and a bit boring; it doesn’t have much of an actual story beyond spoiled brats touring the factory and getting killed off in various ways. As someone who’s read most of Roald Dahl’s books, it’s easily one of the poorer entries in his canon.
James and the Giant Peach is similarly overrated.
Gone with the Wind is severely overrated, and either Wizard of Oz or Stagecoach should have won Best Picture that year. None of the main characters are likeable in any way, and Scarlett is just as big a self-centered bitch as Bella from Twilight.
The problem i have with Oz though is that Dorothy was bonked on the head and it was a dream, without Oz being a real place, a secondary universe the myth is shattered. Film is almost perfect for me but for the ending.
In Baum just like Middle Earth it exists as a real world, or like Wonderland does in the Alice books.
The prequels are in fact worse than the sequels. Jar-Jar Binks, Anakin, midicholorians and some of the worst dialogue ever put to film are why the prequels are not good films.
Not only is Fortnite seriously overrated, the reason it’s worse than Hong Kong '97 or the NES Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde game is that it attempts and succeeds at selling gambling to kids. That is obviously immoral of anyone to do.

It’s been a spell since I read Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland/Through the Looking-Glass, but I’m 99% sure Wonderland exists only in Alice’s dreams, albeit possibly as a transient sub-reality, if the speculation that Alice herself’s a part of the Red King’s dream is anything to go by.

But then Dorothy went back to Oz in the 80s, had some more adventures, then returned to Kansas again, but this time the existence of Oz is at least ambiguous. Also, one time Diana Ross ended up in Oz where she met Michael Jackson.
Inside Out is really overrated. It’s plot was mentally tormenting a girl for no reason whatsoever.
Let me address the elephant in the room. Poor Things is an overrated movie. None of the characters were engaging, I’m apathetic towards the story and it nearly BORED me to sleep upon watching this film. One of the movie’s strongest aspects were the visuals such as the backdrops (especially the Portugal scene) and the soundtrack which reminded me of Animal Crossing, but that’s about it. I didn’t care for this movie.

Visually stunning movie, meh story.
Michael Jackson is overrated. Yes, I said it.

Back to the Future’s version of Johnny B Goode is better than the original version. And I’m saying this as someone who loves Chuck Berry.
