I would have to go with "Brazil". It just seemed like a majority of the people that said they liked it were just going along with all the hype. I did like "Fear And Loathing..." and "12 Monkeys", though.

"Brazil" overrated? Good God, man, more like underrated. It's an absolutely brilliant film that has never seen the success that it should have. (My two cents.)

All Terry Gilliam films are overrated, but they are all better than some of the crap that made more money than his films (12 Monkeys is the best of the bunch IMO).
Found A Better Tommorrow trilogy overrated, especially comparing to Hard Boiled or The Killer, those are classics, ABT is only good.
