Exactly. Saying something's "overrated" is easier than just saying "I don't like it". I understand the impulse, though--it's alienating when everyone seems to be raving over a film/play/book that you personally didn't care for, but you don't want to seem like a "hater"--or what used to be called a "killjoy."
