Had a chance to finally watch another movie from last years Oscars while cleaning up the kitchen, and I just have to say, thats two hours of my life Ill never get back. August; Osage County was on Broadway, and the reviews kept speaking of the rapier sharp humor. I spent the movie wondering where the hell it had gone. I think I know. It was sacrificed in search of an Oscar. All I kept thinking through the whole movie was AC-ting!! Im surprised there was a board left intact on that scenery after all the chewing. I didnt even remotely like any of the characters except for the dead guy, and I really didnt care what happened to any of them. And then, like the grim cherry on top, was one of the worst cases of miscasting Ive ever seen. Maybe its just me, but I dont care how schlumpy he tries to look, there is no way Im going to believe Benedict Cumberbatch is a weak, whimpering victim of his mothers tongue who was born to fail. Theres just something in his make-up that is too composed. Okay. Got that off my chest. I think Ill go back to watching hobbits and wizards.
