Hasn't Jimmy Greaves got the highest goals to games ratio for anyone that had an England career ?
Most overated I can think of off the top of my head would be 'Full Monty'
like a second rate carry on film for the nineties.
While im at it 'Dirty Dancing' .............I could eat a dictionary and shit a better script .
Under rated would be 'Sexy Beast' ....totally bombed and went to video immediately even though it contained great performances and atmosphere and possibly the best surprise portrayal of a psychotic by Ben Kingsley ever !

Over-rated: The Blair Witch Project. So scary it made american audiences scream and puke and die of heart attacks? No chance...
Under-rated: Starship Troopers. Yes it was silly. Yes it was cheesy. Yes, that was the whole point!
Well ive contributed to the film one so ill try the football sub thread . My knowledge of football is very limited due to being brought up in a family of Millwall supporters , and the fact that I prefered to spend my teenage years actually getting laid and drinking . However I would have to say that me ol mate Vinnie Jones was a grossly under rated footballer . No flourishes or dazzling flashes of sublime ball control , but a stalwart reliable constant rock in defence running out and doing his job week after week in a club that could barely raise funds for the half time oranges and yet still getting results .His international career was sadly blighted much like Ryan Giggs due to his Welshness.
Apart from all that Silky fancies the pants off him , and gets all frisky at the mention of Gone in Sixty seconds .

Giggsy has been at the top of the game now for over a decade and has scored some of the best goals since the Premiership started.
He proved just the other night that he's still one of the best with a great goal,that only a player of his stature could make look so easy.
Simply one of the true United greats,next to the legend Geoge Best (when he wasnt out shagging and drinking)
where do i start.
firstly starship troopers was 1 of the worst films i have ever seen.
sexy beast was incredible but im a huge ray whinstone fan.
as 4 football matthew le tissier was unbelievable! if he played 4 man utd the england manager would have built the team around him, like sven tried 2 do with scholsey.
but the question i ask is if man united would have bought him would he honestly of got in the team over oooh aahhh CANTONA??
as 4 giggsy u will be suprised he is not actualy as under rated as u think he is. inter milan have offered untold millions 2 prise him away from man utd but fergie wouldnt let him go and he was happy being a united legend. and in the premiership he is feared by ne full back.
he never did nething on the international level cos he chose wales but playing year in year out in the champions league he is feared across europe.
claire i agree if he played 4 england we would have the most fantastic midfield.
By the way talking about under rated films have any of u seen the film CITY OF GODS??
and if u have wat do u think???
Awww.... so much hostility towards Starship Troopers. I guess that just proves how underrated it is!
England? Big Time ? This surely merits an inclusion in the oxymoron thread.
Paul Scholes.
Hate Man U, but my man Scholes is God.
Movies - Harold & Maude (you're all to young to know that one) is just... woah.
Star Wars - all of them - tripe. But that's just personal opinion.
Titanic - Total bollox. Absolute waste of time.
