The Most Overrated Movies

According to the website listverse.com, these are the top 5 overrated movies of all time. We want your opinion. Feel free to add to the list. What you name as the most overrated movie of all time. In the meantime, here's what the website has to day.

#1.) "Apocalypse Now" (1979): "Terribly acted, stilted, and somehow managed to be ludicrously over dramatic without any drama. Yet this movie is widely considered one of the 100 best of all time and is lauded for its star power."
#2.) "Clerks" (1994): "There were sections of this film that were hilarious, but there were twice as many that weren't funny at all. This was an impressive independent film, but nothing that should have achieved the near epic status it enjoys."
#3.) "Titanic" (1997): "A long and boring soap opera without good acting. Flat cardboard characters, and the all time cliché of a tragic love story between two star-crossed lovers."
#4.) "Chicago" (2002): "This was an entertaining picture, but Best Picture? Really? . . . This film was fun if you like a musical, but it's hardly a best picture."
#5.) "Shakespeare in Love" (1998): "Keep in mind that this was the movie that kicked the butt of 'Saving Private Ryan', 'Dark City', 'American History X', and 'The Big Lebowski' all around the awards shows.
