Review : Oscar Movie nominees |
Wednesday, January 23, 2008
Seems I can't keep myself away from movies these days. And thanks to my new-found movie sharing sites, I'm watching atleast one movie everyday. Just as I told U in my last post that I'm having 51 movies on my HDD. Some of them aren't even released in India till now. And this morning I came to know that 3 of them are actually nominated for 'Best Film' in this year's Oscar Awards. They are 'No country for old men' , 'There will be blood' and 'Juno'. [ Check the full nomination list here ] This makes me wonder - don't I have a taste or what?

It's always been like this. The movies that are highly acclaimed are the worst I've ever seen. Biggest example being - Black. This movie created such a tremor nation-wide. Everyone reacted as if this is the greatest movie ever made. But frankly, I was on the verge of tearing off every single hair on my head while watching it. Some mental movie.
As I've always said - critical acclaim should never be your reason for watching a movie. Critics are just a bunch of retards. Maybe, my taste is not as good as them or I don't have enough Grey cells to understand the beauty of such movies. But then, if I need to utilize my brain while watching a movie - what's the use of it? I mean, movies are meant to entertain us, right?
