We’ve been making our way through the Oscars nominees and I will be honest–my favourite part about having watched a movie now is going and reading all the reviews on Letterboxd. How are people so funny?? If I work really hard on comedy every single day for the rest of my life, I will still only be able to dream of being half as funny as the Saltburn reviews page.
Anyhow, here are my (non-spoiler) reviews of all the Oscars movies we managed to watch!
Note: 3 stars is my “this is a competently made movie but it doesn’t have much else going for it” baseline. I can’t in good conscience give anything a rating below that if it isn’t like.. glaringly bad in some way, so they’re pretty much all in the 3-5 star range
I also watched Oppenheimer and Nimona a while back but did not leave reviews just star ratings (5 and 3.5, respectively).
Got as many in as I could before the party. We were going to try to watch Killers of the Flower Moon and Maestro but guess what. We didn’t!
Anyway! Sunday! I’m excited. We’re having pals over–we don’t usually watch too closely, I’m not actually a huge Oscars person, it’s just an excuse to watch some movies I might not normally have gone out of my way to watch, then hang out and drink cocktails and eat snacks and BATTLE TO REIGN SUPREME. I wish I had the time and energy to actually write out real reviews because boy howdy do I have thoughts on some of these movies, but alas! I have to go paint a shitty painting.
Okay bye!
