I get this film, But that doesn't make it a masterpiece.

Rating: 6/10 (7 February 2015)

It's been a while since i have written a review on a film, but this one has compelled me to do so again. Most of you will know what the film is about and it tries to be ironic, but it doesn't quite pull it off. For those of you that don't know what the film is about, well it's about an ageing actor that has taken to Broadway, but is often reminded of his one big film "Birdman". I get the artistic angle as you get the feel of the camera shooting the entire film in one sequence. I get the irony of actors making fun of their own profession. And we all have that voice of doubt in our heads. But what the film doesn't seem to get it's not THAT good, I mean it's OK to watch once but its probably 30 minutes too long and it is pretty boring. I understand critics saying its breathtaking or it should win Oscars, but they would as it is their industry it's their lifestyle so they would like it, and I get the feeling that it was made for the critics. For the average film lover don't waste your money or time on this film until it comes on the TV.
