I know I'll get the hate, but Batman Begins is very overrated. The Dark Knight? Excellent. BB? Nope. My two were Cast Away and One Hour Photo, and both are much better.

You're not alone. My votes went to One Hour Photo and Walk the Line, both of which are likely to be eliminated this round.

As with a lot of this tournament I think things are getting votes just because they've had more eyes on them. I know that's the case here for me as I haven't seen One Hour Photo or Walk The Line. Generally though I do think Batman Begins is overrated, but I also think The Dark Knight Rises is under rated, which I'm sure I'll get hate for, as people love to hate that movie.

Thats definetly true for me. I think I counted I have seen 70 of the remaining 128 films. I am sure 1 hour photo is good, but I haven't seen it.
