The Oscars are quickly approaching. This year I saw three of the five films nominated for best picture.
I really wanted to see Milk but it was only on at one theatre near me and at that theatre it was only there for two weeks so I never got a chance to see it. Which sucks since it's suppose to be really good and Sean Penn is the current front runner to win Best Actor.
The Reader I didn't care that I missed since it got poor reviews. Personally I feel something like Doubt, the Wrestler, the Dark Knight or Wall-E should have been nominated instead. Every year it seems like there's one movie that makes me wonder what the academy was thinking when they did the nominations (last year it was Juno).
Of the three that I've seen I decided to give my opinion on them in case anyone wanted to get in some last minute viewings before Sunday. Below the cut there are some spoilers for Benjamin Button and Slumdog Millionaire but not Frost/Nixon.
