Title: Hysterically Overrated
Review: I have to agree with a few other reviewers that 'The Wild Bunch' is a hysterically overrated film. The movie clearly has a devoted following who can't handle the knowledge that maybe they have been devoted to the wrong movie. I watched all of the extras on my Blu-ray and was taken aback by how passionate the devotees of this film are. Their gushing praise was so over the top that it smacked of groupies who have had such a great time hanging out together over the years and talking about their favorite band that at some point the band itself becomes almost irrelevant. When the truth is revealed that the band is not that great the groupies reject any and all negative criticism because it threatens their reason for existing. Yes, this film is vastly overrated. It plays like a bad TV episode in spots. Seriously. I'm not saying I hated it. It was okay. But that's about it. It was just 'okay'.
Is the review positive or negative?
