The Shawshank Redemption.

Yes it's a good film but why do people think so highly of it?

It is a triumph of the human spirit. Not overrated at all.

The Village by M Night Shyalaman was a load of poppycock.

If you don't think that's a great film it says more about you as a person than anything else.

I'd go with Shutter Island, absolute bobbins from start to the point where I fell asleep.

Is Shutter Island the one with Leonard Di Caprio ? If so then I agree. I still haven't got a bloody clue what it was all about. Pretentious piffle.

Inception for me. Agree with Nat about Shutter, absolutely terrible terrible film. Only rated because Scorsese's name is attached, if it was directed by Joe Blogs they'd have panned it.

I know you're probably referring to Brando (and I agree), but De Nero's another one who has people falling over themselves to congratulate him on how brilliant he is.

Don't get me wrong, he's a great actor, but for every Godfather Part II out there, there's a Righteous Kill or a The Family raising its turkey head......

And I always cringe when I watch the scene in Ronin where he's trying to prove that Sean Bean had never been in the SAS by asking him what colour the boat-shed was at "Hearford"......

It's pronounced "Herryford", Bob, but nobody on set had the balls to point this out to you, did they....?

Thus making you look a bit dickish.
