![17 Baffling Character Overreactions In Famous Movies](https://s3.crackedcdn.com/phpimages/pictofact/7/5/8/428758.jpg?v=1)
We understand movies have to play up the drama to give us some sort of sense of danger or realism or to make us realize how high the stakes are. But let's be real: life is simply not that dramatic. Like, we get that you're all writers and actors, some of the most dramatic people on the planet, but not everything is that big of a deal. Like, it's okay. Take a CBD gummy or something, Jesus. It's fine. We're all fine. Especially if we keep repeating “we're all fine” over and over. We're all fine, we're fine, we're fine. See? We're all fine.
Anyway, Sometimes, filmmakers have a tendency to go completely overboard which gives us scenes that cover the spectrum from unintentionally hilarious, or depressing for all the wrong reasons.
To help illustrate this, we asked our readers to give us some of the most ridiculous overreactions in film history. The winner is below, but first the runners-up ...
