Your thoughts on the movie "Silence of the Lambs"?
I'm watching it for the first time tomorrow. That Jodie Foster is hot!

Overrated. Okay movie but not deserving of the accolades it received.
shareMaybe not by today's standards? But I can see it being a big deal for 1991.

shareTo say this movie is "overrated" is just quite ignorant.
You can say you still didn't like it for whatever reasons and that is fine, but if you call a movie that is this critically acclaimed "overrated" (a typical GenZ term as well for a substitute of actual arguments) the initial suspicion I have is "ah, a youngling who looked more at his phone than the movie...".
The thing is, the movie is OBJECTIVELY near perfect.
Casting, acting, shooting locations, setting, music, story/script, camera... it's all pretty much perfect. That's not an opinion, it's an objective analysis of pretty much anyone who understands film, the art behind it and also the craft behind it.
It's the equivalent of going into a really good restaurant and get served a perfect menu and still say "meh, overrated!". No, it isn't overrated - you just fail to grasp how good it is. If you do not like that particular dish, okay, but that doesn't make the dish overrated - it only shows you are unable to differentiate between "I don't like" and "generally overrated".
