Room

I'm going through too many emotions right now to properly review this. I don't think there's a human alive that won't be stunned, horrified, amazed, and haunted by this film. It is at once brutally visceral and dauntingly imaginative. The set and direction are outstanding, but the movie is made by it's two stars, Brie Larson and Jacob Tremblay, both of whom well deserve Oscar nods (if not wins) for this. I was in tears for most of the end. I'm still in tears now. There really are no words for what this film is able to accomplish on an emotional level. Just see it. 5/5

Yes, it's sappy & silly. Yes, I cried like a baby. What of it? So sue me - it was good. Get off my lawn. 4/5
