Film for the Ages

Rating: 10/10 (29 June 2015)

As soon as I saw critic reviews registering as highly as they were in IMDb for this film I immediately felt the need to see it. I waited many weeks for Birdman to come to a theater near me, and went to the first showing available. I had never had a movie-going experience like I did that day. This film is truly unbelievable, and any review that says the story is shallow, or it lacks an exciting story, can easily be proved wrong by the Oscar win for Best Original Screenplay. To get short and to the point, the acting is phenomenal, the directing is superb, and the comedy is hilarious. I actually laugh out loud when I saw this film has a user rating of 7.9 while movies like Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas are at 7.7.
