This movie came up on Netflix years ago and of course because I’m massively into Movies based on real events I watched it, and I thought it was good. Just good. 
To then find out that this film won best picture I was shocked to say the least. 

It’s by no means a great film, I don’t think there’s any amazing performances in this, I don’t think the dialogue is particularly riveting and I actually think the best part of this film (the ending) because of how insanely intense it is. DID NOT HAPPEN. THAT WHOLE END SCENE IS FABRICATED AND ITS THE BEST BIT. 

Ik it sound like I’m being harsh and my score of this film doesn’t really uphold to that, and although I don’t think this film does anything particularly well. 
I don’t think it actually does anything bad neither. 
It’s just a fairly good film. 

Did not deserve best picture imo.
