These Are the Most Overrated Movies of All Time

Some movies just don't live up to the hype, and there are loads of different reasons that happens. For many of the films on this list, big money was backing them, they had an unexplained cult following, or they just really weren't worth the price of admission. 

Here, we've compiled a list of the most overrated films of all time...

Avatar

Basically, Avatar was Fern Gully with a $237 million budget. Even though this movie was the highest-grossing film of all time until 2019's Avengers: Endgame came out, there was little in the way of a plot. The worst part about this is that there are multiple sequels planned for the near future, but nobody even remembers what happened in the first one.
