Film Critics Awards 2013 (Winners in 1st post - I'm bored...)

[Leyla]

I'm really not rooting for one movie to take everything this year, or even a specific category. There's too much greatness out there that I'd be happy with a lot of the potential contenders winning.

I thought you hadn't seen the movie yet. 

 

Still, great for McAvoy. Deserved.

Thanks Blankments! You gave my 300 like! Never thought I would receive that many likes 

[Jake Gittes]

Filth was pretty uneven (this Baird guy is no Boyle, no matter how much he'd like to be), but McAvoy fucking rocked it. Completely deserves whatever awards/nominations are gonna come his way.

Filth is actually one of my favorite movies this year. Yes, it's not Trainspotting and yes, the plot twist that comes in the third act was really poorly handled. I was still really impressed by not only James McAvoy's phenomenal performance, but by the movie's bold mixing of genuinely grim and upsetting material with screwy dark comedy. It gets increasingly dark as it goes along, and by the end all the little light there was in the beginning has been sucked out. The final scene packs a surprising punch. 

 

Above all its a character piece, and James McAvoy fucking owns it. It's a fearsome, career making performance. I can't praise him enough. He is the movie.

So, people. 12 Years a Slave. Really, honestly, is this a "must see"? What sets it apart from other slavery movies? How is this more groundbreaking than the rest?

 That's terrible man. That's terrible. Your mother brought you up wrong, that's what it is! Cuaron is a filmmaking genius!

[CoolioD1]

When are all the screeners gonna leak online? I'm bored of not having seen shit.

[ddddeeee]

Seriously? Zimmer wrote 10 or so minutes for 12 Years a Slave, and those 10 minutes were all 'Time' regurgitations. Ugh.

What other slavery movies?

[Michael Gary Scott]

I dont think its supposed to be ground making was Argo ground breaking. No they are just both well made movies. Im rooting for Gravity to win cause I thought it was amazing but 12 years is definitely a very worthy of the wins its getting.
