Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) (2014)
Waste of my precious time
I rented this movie just for the heck of it....I usually don't watch Oscar nominated movies, they are very boring and can only appeal to the few eggheads that voted for them rather than what rational people would have voted for if given the opportunity. Anyway I watched this movie to the end hoping that I will find out what was so 'brilliant' about it. It was nothing but a disgusting garbage and cheer disappointment! As an avid movie enthusiast, I found it rather disturbing that such a crass, senseless, stupid movie that is so void of any of any intellectual human reasoning is being celebrated at the Oscars; not that I really expected anything worthy from the Oscars, they have proved over and over again that they are noted for celebrating mediocrity. I give this movie .5 stars for effort. Sorry Michael Keaton, I'm not wasting my time and money on your next movie, that is: if you ever make another one! ****This will also feature in my weekly entertainment editorial*****

Where is the action?
Good movie/plot, but poor directing. Could have been more dramatic! For a low budget movie that relies on video camera and stuff, a little more action could have elevated the movie into a block buster. The role of the Bill is very ambiguous. He's not supposed to die the way he died. He should have been given the opportunity to defend himself in a more dramatic way or even be given a better edge as a payback to all the suffering he endured in the hands of James while in school. Police investigation should have been more thorough and done in parallel to what James was doing. Overall it's a good movie with intermittent scenes of actions and suspense, but could have been spinned in a more dramatic manner
