Definitely Deserving of The Oscars

Rating: 9/10 (29 December 2012)

Unlike many films that won Oscars, this one was one of the more worthy films to win. Not to mention the fact it beat out The Green Mile and The Sixth Sense and it's still considered worthy makes it all the better. What makes this film great is that it's not only a statement on the American Middle Class but it's a classic underdog story. Kevin Spacey does his job with expertise as a man who wants more out of life and will do anything to feel new. Some people call that a mid-life crisis, this films shows it as something else. ....Look Closer (See what I did there). Even Annette Bening did as solid job playing as a prude of sorts who demands perfection and will get it anyway possible. Granted the script isn't the greatest in the world (Magnolia should've won in that category) it fit well into what Sam Mendes wanted and in the end, you got an excellent film with great acting and a message that tells people to not look at what you see at face value whether it's for a family, a business or kids at a high school.
