Anyone who calls Gravity overrated is just a hater. Not only is it an astounding technical achievement, it’s one of the most exciting and visceral films of the century. Plus, Sandra Bullock is fantastic. Just because it’s not an “important” movie doesn’t mean it didn’t deserve a BP nom.

Going along with what Rachel wrote earlier, a film that was close to a Best Picture nomination for the 2005 ceremony (probably right behind Eternal Sunshine) is Vera Drake and I find that underrated. Imelda Staunton is incredible and probably should’ve won Best Actress (Mike Leigh landed a Director nom too and that was cool)

The Shape of Water is overhated for some stupid reason, same with Joker.

No movie is more overhated than Avatar. People hate it when something gets really successful especially if it’s science fiction and something far from what many considers to be a ” great movie ” ( I could say the same thing about Titanic ).

The Artist is definitely overhated. I think it was very enjoyable and deserved to win in a weak year.

I didn’t even know Gravity was hated. I consider it one of the best BP nominees of the century and it deserved its fantastic award run

It didn’t deserve to win over 12 Years A Slave but it remains one of my favorite Pic/Director split ever
