Review of Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) (2014) by Silverado — 07 Mar 2015
Some of my very favorite movies are about the subject of taking a look behind the curtains of the movie industry. I'm talking about the brilliant films All About Eve and Sunset Boulevard. Both movies featured an actress, struggling with age and a declining career.
As I am writing this I realize why I probably loved these film's anti hero's and why I hate Birdman: only women are awesome when hysterical, defenitely not men. Lately I kind of start to hate modern 'art house' movies.
These movies take themselves so serious, and that's why they are so boring. In my opinion, opposite a cynical caracter should be a loveable and warm caracter. But in the movies of especially this Inarrity guy, all caracters drown in their indulging misery.
It's like you, the movie goer, is forced to agree with him, which I completely reject.
