Oscar worthy?

Rating: 5/10 (25 February 2012)

Out of the 10 nominated films this year, i think this is my least favourite. i don't understand all the praise that has been heaped upon it, except to say that maybe movie lovers might love it, but this one did not care for it. This film has a simple, very simple plot. The silent era of film is at a close and the talkies are taking over. Thank God! Without talking there is not much for writers to write. The actors were good at expressing the actions, especially the little dog, but i prefer dialog in my films. i want to hear how people resolve the conflicts in their lives. The Artist feels like a mash-up between Singing in the Rain and silent films from the 20's. As for The Oscar, please give it to The Help or Moneyball or War Horse. And for actor, Brad Pitt, an actor that used words and expressions.
