But seriously though, Fuck Lincoln. Take back everything everyone said about War Horse and apply it to Lincoln. At least Spielberg was AWAKE for War Horse...

I enjoyed it… BUT it is not one of my favorites.  In fact only a handful of movies from 2012 I TRULY loved.

Sorry, but the award for Most Mediocre Film of the Year goes to Beasts of the Southern Wild. Lincoln and Amour wers close, but Beasts edged them out.

I don't know about that. I just saw Beasts of the Southern Wild. I won't make that mistake again. Probably the most overrated piece of Oscar bait I've seen all year.

OH, I almost forgot about the montages....

Look I know you wanna be that "above-average Edgy but not TOO Edgy Hollywood rom-com", but you don't gotta use ALL the rom-com cliches, guys...

Haven't gotten around to Les Mis yet.

But even in that case, an epic musical like Les Mis is supposed to be all grand and bombastic and uber theatrical, so that stuff kinda comes with the territory; it's to be expected. In here it's just...peculiar. Like these random zoom ins at what are supposed to be serious moments; like there was a soundtrack cue missing to tell us whether to laugh or to go "Oooo!" Like in some sitcom like I said.

This is one of those movies salvaged by some good dialouge and good acting. The story/direction though was just a little too flat for me.

I liked it but I feel the last third is really weak. When Lawrence's character started reciting all the scores I was cringing. And the whole we got to do the dance to save the 'rec center' plot turn is really stupid.
