Excellent, a Must See

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

This one is an extremely difficult watch, but that is a testament to the powerful emotions the film inspires in the view. Brie Larson is moving, and her character is a complex one, and she imbues her with all of the trauma and conflicting emotions one would have in the situation she finds herself in. A harrowing movie, as it should be.

In the real world, our world at this day and time, when children and young women are found after years of captivity, I found this movie to be very realistic and all of the actors did an amazing job, especially the mother and son.
I found this to be a very emotional movie and I found myself holding back tears at times throughout.
I would consider this a Must See Movie, although I don't have a desire to watch it again.

I've never reviewed a film before however this movie blew me away, beautiful storyline.
The acting was perfect and I didn't want the film to end.
It's emotionally draining but it will stay with me in a positive way.

This week I was going to watch some Oscar winning movies. I started yesterday with Call Me By Your Name which I absolutely hated. I couldn't get why a dull movie like that could win an Oscar. So today I thought I was going to have a hard time again with Room, but oh what was I wrong. Room deserves totally to win an Oscar, even more than one. Room is a movie that I will remember for a long time, while the other one I already completely forgot about it. The story is very poignant, a rollercoaster of emotions, from hatred to hopeful to sad. I almost never cry with movies but here I have to admit I had a couple hard times containing my tears. Brie Larson deserves her Oscar for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role, there's no doubt about that, but the young Jacob Tremblay was to me the big star of this movie. Even at such young age he deserved an Oscar for his performance. What a powerful piece of acting that was. For once I was blown away by an Oscar winning movie. To me it was just the movie of that year and it should have won the big prize. A movie that I for sure will watch again in the future.
