Anette Bening being all soulful in her dramas usually goes with me liking the movie not loving it, but maybe I'm wrong here.

I can see why you didn't like it, but what you didn't like, I genuinely loved.<br /><br />Also, if there's one film you've missed out on from 2016, it's 20th Century Women. It's my #1 of 2016, & it's my #1 film of all time.

I also thought dayum, Dev Patel's got such sexy hair :P<br /><br />I LOVE your awards for Hidden Figures!!

I think that script was beyond rescue no matter who played the lead. I appreciate the technical side but the story was just completely hollow for me and it didn't engage me at all.<br /><br />Logan is probably gonna win like 50 awards for next year here :)<br /><br />I listed everything I saw at the end of the post there so unfortunetely I haven't seen The Fundamentals of Caring. I've been rubbish last year when it comes to movie watching and saw the least movies ever. I hope to do better this years.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13987831438787776712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-66097629477697651612017-04-17T16:46:19.113+02:002017-04-17T16:46:19.113+02:00It's weird..

I went in without knowing anything, pretty early on before all the hype, and I ended up loving it. seeing all the worst awards going to it on this list makes me a little sad, because for me there were worst movies out there last year but I also didn't see most of them because I know to keep away from the shitty ones.<br /><br />I agree with Casey Affleck being really good, and despite what was being said about him, I'm glad he won. There wasn't anyone else from last year who could have deserved it more and I've not cried so much since then... oh wait, Logan.. but that's a whole new year and a whole new list.<br /><br />I will someday watch The Handmaiden and Hell or High Water but I'm not sure I'll watch The Neon Demon.. I was curious for a while but I'm not anymore so who knows.<br /><br />Have you watched The Fundamentals of Caring? I thought that was one of those blink-and-you'll-miss-it movies from last year that was actually really really good but nobody has talked about it. Paul Rudd is excellent in that movie and I have a soft spot for Craig Roberts.Getterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07216666216639032348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-81852393046648280322017-04-16T18:20:41.282+02:002017-04-16T18:20:41.282+02:00Bland is terrible for me :)

I liked Arrival and was underwhelmed by The Witch, but happy to see Hell Or High Water and Neon Demon crack the top 10, and pleased borefest High-Rise gets the low rating it deserves :) Rebecca Hall’s performance in Christine was definitely overlooked during awards season.
