Worst day of my Hollywood movie watching career! This is no match to Avatar. Critics and Oscar Judges must apologize publicly for choosing this...

Rating: 3/10 (14 May 2017)

I first watched La La Land and then the Hurt Locker today as I was in a really good mood to watch movies. Both movies are Oscar Winners and critically acclaimed. La La Land was a big disappointment from Hollywood so I thought may be I should give a try to a war movie. Hurt locker was an obvious choice. The underdog! The revenge of the Ex-wife! The Hollywood movie with least box-office collection to win an Oscar! Avatar-crushing! And what not... Naturally when you start a movie with such huge expectations, you need a visual treat or a deadly story line or a performance which blow you off. But at the end of this movie (as well as La La Land), I was cursing myself for wasting my whole day. Firstly was there any actual suspense/thrill in this story? A definite no. Was there any good action sequence? No. Was there any story-line? Yes that this person has guts, so what! Was there any inspiration or a learning point in this movie or something you will cherish a long time after? NO. Would you be able to recommend this movie to anyone? NO. Did this movie really deserved Oscar? NO. Did this movies production quality, story-line, action sequences, acting prowesses, direction, the "wow" factor, laughability, likability, humor stood any chance against Avatar? If NO could have some even negative quality than this would have been for this movie. Did this movie would really stand the test of time? No. Would you like to re-watch this movie ever? No. Did this movie deserve such high rating on IMDb? NO. I can really go on and on and on writing negative things about this movie. The only positive thing about this movie was that it was short so wasted less of my time and that it showed skills of a bomb diffuser which was new for me. Rest i will really like the Critics and Oscar Judges to wrote a public apology to James Cameroon for choosing this movie above Avatar. This movie was penned down by critics and film festivals on initial release. It only gained momentum later on due to efforts of some really good PR skills, the sympathy factor because of Katherine Bigelow being the ex-wife of James Cameroon (the victim game), sympathy from being the only movie in Oscar history whose producer was stopped from being able to attend the Oscar ceremony (as he tried to influence the judges) and the sympathy from the fact that it was a really low-budget movie competing against the biggy that is Avatar. I request critics to be rational. IMDb is such a popular site among movie goers that people will not stop watching this movie due to its high ratings and Oscar-tag and at the end they will find them being cheated like me. P.S. - I remember saying so many "NO's" only once when I had not prepared for the viva and my teacher was asking me all sorts of tough questions to which I had no answers. Please don't waste your time watching this movie.
