"Classic" film you watched that just didn't live up to expectation/hype?

[Bboystyle]

Scarface is one of the worst movies ive ever seen

Oh hell nahhh. This is instant negged and ignored status.

 

[wild100sboy]

Fargo

Fargo

Dissapointing as hell. How can a movie be 1 hour 35 minutes and still be slow as hell? Took ages for that film to get going. Utterly overhyped. One of them movies where you're like "what the fukk did people see in this shyt?" It's absolutely nothing special.

Schindler's List

Scarface is one of the worst movies ive ever seen

I think more and more people realize this every few years

 

[Monoblock]

How miserable do you have to be to hate on gladiator

Oh you know who he is.

 

[mbewane]

The Big Lebowski

Same. Don't even remember finishing it.

Inception

I thought it was okay.

I'm a big Nolan fan, Inception and The Prestige are good movies but nowhere near classics imo.

I'll add most Star Wars movies

 

[Kliq_Souf]

Shawshank
It was meh to me

 

[MenacingMonk]

Citizen Kane

 

[Oville]

Raging Bull. Felt like it just kinda ended. Didnt know what I was supposed to get out of it

 

[SilverSamurai]

Chinatown

Acting was good and I got the message of the story, but shyt was boring to me

 

[Bless't]

This thread hurts the soul.

What film did you watch that has a classic or heralded status that when you finally got to see just didn't live up to the hype that had been built up? It wasn't necessarily a bad movie just nothing special

Mine was Blair Witch Project. I was so excited for this film after recommending some duds for the fam and it was just.. Not scary to me At All. It just seemed to me like some students getting lost and arguing in the forest and then when it finally became scary... It ended.

And on the risk of catching negs... "There will be blood". Sorry brehs I don't know ppl compare that to No Country for Old men not even comparable imo TWBB was kinda boring yh I know Daniel day Lewis had an ATG performance. I think I came into it with the wrong expectation of the kind of movie it was going to be.

King Arthur
With buddy who played Jax from Sons of Anarchy

 

[RickyDiBiase]

Fight club amd inception.

Both kind of meh to me



Edit: a nikka said Scarface and called it one of the woat?

Scarface is just ok. If it was about Sosa >>>>>>>>

but for me

Every single Star Wars Movie
Pulp Fiction
S/O to @pez cause I always found The Matrix "cool" but trying way too hard with the metaphors
@LauderdaleBoss same opinion for Training Day, honestly, I wish they had a black actor play Ethan's role probably would've liked it better. LL in In Too Deep was just the right amount of ruthless and wasn't over done. but that pool stick scene was .
Titanic
Gangs of New York
Donnie Darko
E.T.
Trainspotting
Citizen Kane- such a overrated ass movie.
