I personally avoid calling anything “overrated” because it carries judgment against anyone who likes the thing. I will say I haven’t especially enjoyed a Tarantino since I was a teenager and I don’t know what makes him so special.
Comment on How Would You Rank Quentin Tarantino's Films?

Unpopular opinion but I’d rank a lot of them as “overrated.”

Craft, pure craft, is what makes a Tarantino movie. Especially strong when it comes to dialogue and framing it.
Tarantino is about as special as Villeneuve is special – but not in the same way. They both have their specialities where they’re extraordinary, and in other aspects they’re only rock solid.
Not liking/enjoying a movie is fine, but it doesn’t really say anything about how good the movie is, it just might not have been for you. Maybe watch a scene analysis and even if the movie still doesn’t do it for you, you can appreciate the skill with which it’s done.

That is, indeed an unpopular opinion.
