Nothing to see here, move along, move along.

Rating: 2/10 (3 March 2015)

I gave the picture a 2 out of 10 because it's possible something interesting happened after we left. As a person who has suffered through some real stinkers, I must admit we couldn't take it and had to leave before the end of Birdman just to get some fresh air. The movie was awful - boring indulged people with boring lives. I suppose you could say this was meant to be artsy satire, but there wasn't anything to hold this audience. If it indeed was meant to be satirical, I would recommend the writer and director watch Strangelove. Not one character had any depth or interest and the entire story was irrelevant. Norton's character spoke and acted like numerous actors from the 1930s - exaggerated, artificial and not believable. Why Naomi Watt's agent let her "act" in this picture is a puzzle to me - it will probably be damaging to her career. I must punish myself for being so stupid as to have been in the audience - perhaps I'll watch some reruns of the Academy Awards.
