I honestly don't know, only saw a couple of films with him. He died young though (23) so I bet he is overrated.

He's overrated because he died young? I thought he was great in Stand By Me.

I don't think he is overrated. He had so much potential and his best work was ahead of him. I would have much rather have seen him play the "Interviewer" in the movie "Interview with the Vampire" than Christian Slater, which was the next film he was going to do after he got done doing the movie "Dark Moon"? I'm not sure of the movie's name, it was never finished but was like 90% complete.

Ian Curtis died at 23... so is he overrated because he died young and left the mark as a great lyricist?

Same. I haven't seen any of his other movies, so I wouldn't be able to tell you if I thought he was overrated or not.

His two big films were Stand By Me and My Private Idaho. He stared with Keanu Reeves in the latter film. Both of them were so young back then. River was expected to be a huge star after that performance. But we will never see any of that.
