BIRDMAN earned every honor.

Rating: 10/10 (29 December 2014)

As a theater actor turned film actor, I think BIRDMAN attacks the very ego of an industry that is misunderstood by the public, and it's fantastic! This film exposes the underbelly of living with fame and it is shot beautifully. The long shot cinematography leaves the viewer wondering how the film was edited, but does not distract from the story.
The ensemble cast is GREAT. Very realistic and honest. Like we are invited into the personal life of these "real" people. The characters cause us to latch on and want more as an audience.
Michael Keaton bares his soul and delivers cinema magic. This film is an instant classic! Congratulations to everyone who worked on BIRDMAN for a job well done!
