Oscars Week Series: BEST PICTURE REVIEWS

Welcome to our special OSCAR WEEK SERIES of reviews. This series will go through the seven categories in which an award is given based on the entire film (rather than any one constituent element). This seventh review in the series will go through the BEST PICTURE nominees.

89th Academy Awards Nominations

Nominations for the 89th Annual Academy Awards were announced Tuesday morning with lots of great films scoring nominations.  Moonlight managed to grab 8 nominations, while La La Land scored a whopping 14 nominations, both of which are up for Best Picture.

This year's Oscar ceremony, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, will honor the best films of 2016 and will take place at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, California on February 26, 2017. During the ceremony, The Academy will present awards in 24 categories (listed below). The ceremony, televised in the United States by ABC, will be hosted by television host Jimmy Kimmel and will air at 7 p.m. ET, so make sure to join us for this star-studded event, and check us out on Twitter where we will be live tweeting the whole night.

Movie Review: FENCES

Fences is the third directorial effort by acclaimed actor Denzel Washington and is an adaptation of the August Wilson play of the same name. The film stars Washington alongside Viola Davis, Stephen Henderson, Jovan Adepo, Russsell Hornsby, and Mykelti Williamson. Washington and Davis have famously performed this play on stage prior to making this film. Overall, I found that this film was wholly built around two superb performances but was otherwise an extremely mediocre film as a whole.
