Oscar Watch Minus One

I haven't wanted to watch all five Oscar-nominated films in about 20 years. I've seen them all, except for Benjamin Button. Here are my quick reviews:

Frost/Nixon: Not bad. Michael
Sheen got shafted for a nomination. Probably works better in play form.
The Reader: Kate Winslet naked, Nazis. Probably works better in book form.
Milk: The documentary was better. Sean Penn, good as usual. James Franco very good.
Slumdog Millionaire: Wonderful, beautiful, uplifting. Deserves to win.


Review for TCCOBB to come this week.
