What is the difference between reversing and overruling?

The meaning of REVERSING something is obvious. However, the word OVERRULE can have several legal meanings: (i.e.: If, upon hearing a cse, an appeals "overrules" a decision of the lower court, it does mean the same as REVERSING it). However, "overrule" can also be used in the context of a judges decision to overrule an attorney's objection or motion (for example) in this case "overrule" does not mean the same as REVERSE.
