I'll take some advice offered up by this movie. Critics can't do, which is why they're critical, so I'll keep it short. I could never make a movie. But I do have the capacity to either like or dislike a movie after watching it. "Birdman" featured the most pretentious, self-absorbed jerks I think I've ever encountered. I hated every character in this movie. Well, Michael Keaton's character was pathetic but likable. This pretty much confirmed everything I thought Broadway actors were like. If this isn't an accurate portrayal of stage actors, then why paint the characters in such a fashion?
I got sick of the camerawork. The extended shot silliness limited the movie and what it could offer the viewer.
I've read largely positive feedback from people that I normally trust regarding "Birdman" and I'm at a loss.
