Winter's Bone (2010)
6/10
Every year another overrated snooze-fest sneaks its way into Oscar contention
30 November 2010
I do not usually do reviews, but I read one too many 10/10 reviews. Guys, I'm gonna level with you. This movie is a well written, well directed and well acted snooze fest. This movie is terribly overrated.

I'm all for indie movies, but come on people. What does this movie bring to the table? Maybe I'm just not a fan of dark/grim movies that you tell from the first 5 minutes is not going to bode well for the heroine.

This movie has a similar feel to 'The Road' which I also did not like, so maybe I'm biased to this genre. I've already seen 200+ movies this year and the hype of this movie is sickening. I can think of 50 I would put well above it.

If you go see this flick, do yourself a favor and bring a pillow and a red bull.
