There are many films that seem to be regarded as classics yet I have no idea why. So what films do you think are overated and state why you think they are.
#1. The Searchers.
This is usually quoted as being the finest Western ever made with both Spielberg and Scorsese eulogising over the superb framing, the seemingly simplistic but classic story of one man's search for divinity and the performances.

I don't like any of the characters either. There is no denying that it has been influential but that still doesn't mean that I should enjoy it.
