I couldn't agree more. Tim Robbins was great ("You know, for kids!"). And after watching some Tarantino movies, I for the life of me couldn't figure out what everybody else saw in them.

Overrated: Austin Powers: Goldmember. I thought it was funny, but not nearly as good as the first one, or even the second.

Also Overrated: Star Wars, Episode 2. Just not a good movie, even though it was infinitely better than Episode 1. I don't think I'll bother with Episode 3 after being let down twice in a row.

Underrated: Mystery Science Theater 3000, The Movie. Yeah, it had a low budget, but it's still hilarious. ("So they worship the Everlasting Gobstopper?") Too bad they stopped production on the series.
