The term overrated means that it's rated too high. Previews have nothing to do with the definition. Marketing and expectations have nothing to do with the term overrated either. If a movie is overrated, it's simply said to be better than it is. Disappointing, misleading, or flopping are not synonyms of "overrated."
Sorry, just had to clear that up. A bunch of people are listing disappointing movies on this thread when it's not even about that.
