The film Bohemian Rhapsody.
Quite possibly one of the biggest letdowns ever.
That performance by Rami Malek was embarrassing.
Shoddiest film ever imho.

Go to London, I guarantee you'll either be mugged or not appreciated. Catch the train to London, stopping at Rejection, Disappointment, Backstabbing Central and Shattered Dreams Parkway.
What a load of tosh. London is fantastic with loads of interesting things to do.

Depends what you are into.

I’m not a fan of London or any over populated place for that matter. It’s too much hassle and the people are just zombies.

The countryside is where it’s at. Much more interesting that London

It was a quote from Alan Partridge about London, I hoped someone might get it but maybe not. I like London for the odd weekend trip, I could never live there though. After living out in the sticks most of my life I really don’t like crowds.

Led Zeppelin & Pink Floyd.

No doubt some will say that neither are overrated.

I totally agree with that, but unfortunately there isn't a thread titled "Vastly Overrated things" ;)
