The Academy finally got it right!!!

Rating: 9/10 (4 March 2015)

Birdman: Or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) was honestly a great film. The fact that it has gone from an 8.8/10 to an 8.0/10 as fast as it did bothers me that so many people can't tell the difference from a great artistic film from a pile of crap. Personally I think that the minute a movie wins Best Picture, they just like to bag on it because its the best. Now to the movie itself. Michael Keaton and company give breathtaking performances, and on top of that, it was hilarious. From Ed Norton and Michael Keaton's fight, to Emma Stones wonderful dialogue with Ed and Michael. Behind the scenes: Director Alejandro González Iñárritu has created a masterpiece in 2 months, something that Richard Linklater couldn't do in 12 years. Yes, Birdman was better than Boyhood, deal with it. Though they went back and forth through the awards season, Birdman got what it deserved and came out victorious.
