Anora

Sorry the movie is predictable and also not really well made as some parts are too long without giving anything more while others are too short and should be more investigated. The only positive thing of the whole 2 hours that the predictable and poorly directed and acted movie is the main actress that is the only reason I made till the end. The car scenes at the end of the movie is the only really scene of the whole thing.

I don't understand how this movie won 5 oscars... probably the level is so low nowadays that you can win big also without this kind of film... This movie won best original screenplay instead of real pain....no idea what they smoked before voting.

How does a movie with no dialog win an Oscar?? Can someone explain that to me?! Saying a bunch of curse words for 2 hours does not constitute a dialog. The "couple" has zero chemistry so how are we expected to believe that she loved him?? Nothing happened between them for her to fall in love. They go on a vegas trip, spend a bunch of money, and that's it? That's how you fall in love with someone?! Hey writers, I got news for you - it doesn't work that way. It takes more than that! The russian actor was good and yes, the final scene made a lot of sense even though it was predictable as hell. The scenes where they're looking for the guy were soooooo drawn out and pointless. Why would you do that?!

If there was ever any doubt that the Academy was corrupt, after this movie, there is no doubt anymore. It's obvious that the Oscars are won with money, not talent. This movie winning 5 Oscars is undeniable proof of that.

I wanted to see this film for a long time due to high rating on Metacritic, also won Palm D'or, so was very excited to watch it and finally when it won the Oscar, I bought the film on Amazon prime and watched it To say the least, I was a utterly disappointed. Yes movie had some sequences which were good, but nowhere is the movie Oscar worthy. It should not even be nominated in the best films category. I don't know what has happened to Hollywood that the level of movies that win Oscars has degraded so much over the years. Winning the Oscar for best film was a life goal and this movie winning it really undermines the value of an Oscar.

The script, the narrative is okay, nothing new, some surprises here and there, and that's about it.

The performances I would say are good. The lead actress has done a great job. Maybe she deserved an Oscar nomination, but not win the other side characters, except for one or two are interesting. Rest are not making any sense or any depth of your thinking about them a lot.

Cinematography is good. There is a lot of frames are well placed and lot of imagery. I would say photography is good, but again when the narrative is not strong enough to hold everything falls apart.

I've not seen the other movies which have been nominated. Maybe they are even worse than this, but of course, this does not live up to expectations and Hollywood needs to up their game. Otherwise, I need to stop watching any new movies.

I watched this yesterday, just before the Oscar awards were announced.

70% is sexual activity/nudity/porn like behavior 20% is fights/throwing and breaking things/yelling 10% is soap/crying

Not sure at all why this movie was granted so many awards. In so many categories. Especially for the best movie and the best actress. To me it was trashy, uninteresting and even boring at times. The only interesting part was when the parents came to US and took care of the business. The woman in the leading role is average looking at best with no acting skills, no aura, no charisma.

If you like trashy movies then this one will be for you. I would give 4 out of 10 at best.

I am absolutely shocked that Anora won Best Picture at the Oscars-let alone five awards! I watched it when it was nominated, and even then, I was dumbfounded. What did the Academy see in this film? In my opinion, it was nothing more than a glorified soft po*n with an empty, uninspired plot.

The film completely lacks compelling characters, making it nearly impossible to feel invested in the story. Around the hour mark, I was so disengaged that I considered turning it off and simply reading the summary from somewhere-a rare move for me. Ironically, the written synopsis ended up being more gripping than the actual movie. Out of respect for an Oscar nomination, I went back...fast forwarded and made it to the end credit!

This has to be one of the most undeserving Oscar winners in recent memory. The overwhelming critical acclaim is unfathomable and defies all logic. I never imagined it would actually win Best Picture, but here we are.

Save yourself the time and skip this one. You're not missing anything!
