Hollywood glorifies the superficial and condemns anything worthwhile outside the bounds of their control, especially when God is in the subject. This is cinema! The story, the music score, the cinematography, the acting is all top notch. There are artistic embellishments added to the biblical story but show me one philosopher who can wholly account for the complete accuracy of every event leading up to David and Goliath. There is not one! Take the words of the critics for this series weighted against their own achievements and that would be worth nothing. I never leave reviews but if you are like me and enjoyed this then let your voice be heard. Hollywood is losing their grip on the masses, we need to stand up and support great productions like this because the cowardly critics will try and disparage anything that is not suited to their own agenda. With all this being said, the actor portraying David deserves an award but the entire cast was great all around.
I was born in Carteret County and live here now with my family. This county is rotten with corruption, past and present. What was done to these men is appalling and incomprehensible and the county should pay for it tenfold. Look at our past Sheriff's department corruption. This story needs national attention so that the Carteret County judicial system will be brought to it's knees and held accountable for the egregious acts committed upon Melvin and Licurtis. Let's investigate Adam's Creek Associates and the judge who granted Sheldon rights to the heirs property. I will guarantee you there were Carteret County commissioners on the planning board for the planned subdivision on Silver Dollar Road, and I would greatly assume that the last name Wheatley was involved in this escapade. Investigate and bring these men to justice, Carteret County needs a deep cleansing of it's corruption and quickly at that. Too many judges, lawyers, and a particular nameless Sheriff here who think they hold the cards to play out however they intend. Bring the State Bureau down to Carteret County and trust me they would have a field day with all they will find. Let's get started and turn this county around for the better, time to get rid of all the bad actors here.
This movie was interesting as an insight to a struggling actor's life in the theater. He was this great method actor and became his character, the "Birdman". I could easily see how this would be considered a masterpiece to a struggling actor, director, theater performers or anyone who has dedicated their time to what they like to call "show business". This was obviously made for a very small demographic of viewers in mind but hit the nail on the head in regards to appealing to the "right ones". This was a hipster's dream, definitely did not deserve the academy recognition that it received. Would be great as a television series but as an epic academy award film? Yes it is a creative film, but it's just a clever little comedy, there was no need to make a milestone out of it.
