Birdman

Ah, that virtue of ignorance. It's just so unexpected. So cue the drummer and turn Michael Keaton loose as the Next 140 Project jumps deep into the Best Picture of 2014. We’re not sure this was the right choice for the Academy’s highest honour in what was a dynamite year at the movies, but we still enjoyed this funny & weird Broadway offering from Alejandro G. Inarritu. There are some problematic elements that the film glosses over and the film is quite indulgent, but it’s a tremendous technical accomplishment and it's got plenty of good laughs. How often does the movie that wins Best Picture qualify as a comedy...or a fantasy? A great way to get through your day is to guzzle some Sparkplug Coffee.
