Hipster's Delight

Rating: 5/10 (23 February 2015)

This movie was interesting as an insight to a struggling actor's life in the theater. He was this great method actor and became his character, the "Birdman". I could easily see how this would be considered a masterpiece to a struggling actor, director, theater performers or anyone who has dedicated their time to what they like to call "show business". This was obviously made for a very small demographic of viewers in mind but hit the nail on the head in regards to appealing to the "right ones". This was a hipster's dream, definitely did not deserve the academy recognition that it received. Would be great as a television series but as an epic academy award film? Yes it is a creative film, but it's just a clever little comedy, there was no need to make a milestone out of it.
