A very solid film. Is it deserve a Best picture award?

Rating: 9/10 (1 March 2014)

Greetings from Lithuania.
This is a very solid film. Not one of the best movies ever made as you might think when see a Metacritic score, but a really good one. Do i believe it will win an Oscar for the best movie of the year tomorrow? Yes. It will probably win. Do i think it is wort of this award? Tricky question. No, probably not. "Gravity" was so stunning, so unforgettable, that i barely see any winner except "Gravity", but the winner will be "12 Years As A Slave" - why? because movies like "Gravity" don't win, and "12 Years As A Slave" is the most popular "winner" at the moment, but people after many years will remember "Gravity". Nevertheless,"12 Years As A Slave" is very solid, good film. Performances are superb. Direction is also very solid. Art decorations and costumes take you to the place. This film however didn't show me nothing new that i haven't saw in movies about slavery before, but it has some hardly forgettable moments.
Overall, this is not the best movie of the year in my opinion, "Gravity" and "Nebraska" were better for my, but it probably win, and you should check it out, because it does not have any dull or boring moment and it's a very well crafted and watchable movie. 9/10 for my.
