My Oscar Predictions & Picks

With less than 36 hours to go for cinema's most prestigious (and sometimes flawed) awards night, here are my Oscar picks & predictions.....

Best Film

My Pick: The Social Network (Intelligent yet delightfully entertaining.)

My Prediction: The King's Speech

Best Actor

My Pick: Colin Firth, The King's Speech (For making his stammer believable without over-doing it.)

My Prediction: Colin Firth, The King's Speech

Best Actress

My Pick: Natalie Portman, Black Swan

My Prediction Natalie Portman, Black Swan

Best Actor in a supporting role

My Pick: Geoffrey Rush, The King’s Speech (The life of the movie.)

My Prediction: Geoffrey Rush, The King’s Speech

Best Actress in a supporting role

My Pick: Hailee Steinfeld, True Grit

My Prediction: Melissa Leo, The Fighter

Best Director

My Pick: David Fincher, The Social Network

My Prediction: Tom Hooper, The King’s Speech

It’s not always safe to guess such awards, especially the Oscars as the academy is to known to spring surprises viz the Hurt Locker won over Avataar, Citizen Kane, acclaimed by most as the greatest film ever made lost out to some other movie. So it’s definitely not safe, but it’s definitely fun! Just a small prayer for our very own A R Rahman, hope he can repeat his feat! Jai Ho, all over again!

Oscar Special - 'The Fighter' 160 Characters Twitter Review

The Fighter Tweeview: Slow-paced family drama (Yes!), doesn’t grip, inherent conflict between love interest and family doesn’t come through,lacks the punch!!!

P.S: Christian Bale excels in his role while Wahlberg does just alright!

The King’s Speech 160 Characters Twitter Review

The King’s Speech 160 Characters Twitter Review

The King’s Speech Tweeview: A bland premise made exciting, coupled with great acting by the lead and the support cast, climax, a let down, yet a great watch!

P.S: The brilliance of Colin Firth’s acting is that he actually makes his stammer believable without making it seem over the top. Definitely, the strongest contender for the Best Actor’s Oscar.

127 Hours Tweeview - 160 Characters

127 Hours Tweeview: Brilliant first 10 mins, entertains despite the seriousness of the story, crisp editing, good acting, great direction – Oscar-worthy!

P.S: Hats off to Aron Ralston on whom the story is based. A great example of never-say-die despite having almost died!

I Hate Luv… Tweeview

I Hate Luv… Tweeview: Cliched dialogues, funny in patches, dull 1st half, marginally better 2nd half, unnecessary songs, unconvincing story!

Raavan Tweeview:

Raavan Tweeview: Visually stunning, enchanting music, movie doesn’t grip, saved by a late twist, Abhishek underperforms, Aishwarya excels!
