Fantastic Mr. Fox

Jurassic Park

..in that order.

except that the story was pointless,too long,dull,no character development was present and the acting didn't helped either. I disagree with everything you just said. Yeah, same. Benjamin Button is incredible, and if it's 'too long' or 'dull' for you, it's probably because you have an attention span...

I just watched it recently and picked up on the fact that most of the film is actually viewed from the perspective of Jesus' mother, Mary. Which explains a lot about the structure of the film.

..wait, what's to despise? Someone should fill me in on why it's apparently a flawed film in the eyes of everyone declaring it overrated.

More people like American Beauty than I though, which is a good thing. I thought everybody besides me decided it was extremely overrated and forgot about it. It would definitely be on my top 25... which I am working on. I only saw it recently, and declared it one of my favorites before I even heard...

Still, that first few times seeing it left such an impact on me I cant let it loose it's place as a masterpiece because of it's replay value. Fair enough, although I would hardly call Fight Club a masterpiece. It's superbly entertaining, sure, but it holds nowhere near the same kind of artistic qua...

Incredible technical achievement? Sure. The psychologically profound, culturally relevant masterpiece it aspires to be? I doubt it. Of course, I've only seen it once.

It always bothered me that Fight Club didn't seem to hold much replay value. Hell, the first time I watched it went straight to my Top 5. Then... it fell off the list entirely.

The Game, on the other hand, only got better the more times I watched it.
