Movie Review
Birdman
From the IMDB: A washed-up actor, who once played an iconic superhero, battles his ego and attempts to recover his family, his career and himself in the days leading up to the opening of his Broadway play.
This Oscar Best Picture winner was very unique. The long stretches of single shots are spectacular to watch. There are very few cuts, so the actors had to get multiple scenes right the first try. That’s impressive.
It does have some really funny lines, including the worst way to describe a relationship ever. (Said by a woman, which made it all the funnier.)
This film will make you feel better about yourself as almost all of the characters are complete train wrecks. Or one hot mess. Either way, you’ll be grateful you’re in a much better place and not so screwed up.
I admired this film, but can’t say I loved it. Like a train wreck, it was fascinating to watch. And once was enough.
Recommended if you enjoy thinking ‘What the heck did I just watch?’
