When Denzel first announced about ten years ago that he was going to produce films of all ten of August Wilson's plays, I would have thought he would be almost done by now. He has seven more to go. The Piano Lesson had already been filmed for TV in 1995 with four members of the original Broadway cast, and it was pretty good, so they could have saved this one for later. Joe Turner's Come and Gone could be good if they ever get around to it.
Almost every anticipated movie this award season has turned out to be a disappointment, Nightbitch, queer, maria,the room next door, joker 2, all disappointing meanwhile movies that were on nobody's radar are doing well and taking award season by storm Demi moore-the substance is gaining so much momentum. Saturday night,the brutalist,
I mostly agree with you, although I wouldn't call the room NEXT door a disappointment Brian gave an 8 seems to be doing really well (festival wise) also the BRUTALIST like the substance came outta nowhere
Would love to see Moore get an Oscar nod but I think two things hold her back : body horror is a genre The Acting branch won't touch and the Best Actress category is so competitive this year.
@@mr29 I am so sick of horror movies still being ignored. Horror has really stood the test of time when it comes to popularity unlike most other genres and nowadays many of the best reviewed films of the entire year are horror. It is a new era and Oscars need to get with the times!
Rotten Tomatoes just tells you whether the reviews are generally positive or negative, not whether they're raving about a movie or saying it's just OK.
This is embarrassing to admit but I've seen him in a couple of movies and was like how is this new guy suddenly getting large high profile roles in expensive movies out of nowhere. I didn't even put two and two together it was Denzel's son but now it makes perfect sense. Think of all of the excellent hard-working actors out there who get passed over for him. Nepotism strikes again.
Not saying that she won’t be Oscar caliber great here, but I do think Danielle Deadwyler’s potential nomination here will be a makeup nomination after being overlooked for Till. Much like Paul Giamatti being overlooked for Sideways, but remembered the next year for Cinderella Man. I have to wait til November to see it for myself but I’m anticipating it. The supernatural aspects reminds me of Beloved, the Toni Morrison story.
I think lead actor is still wide open that I still have John David Washington in, and Deadwyler is for sure getting in. I'd argue maybe Ray Fisher has a small chance of getting in Supporting Actor as well.
Encanto proved that can be enjoyable... but I suppose the house being alive and having magical rooms that are bigger on the inside is a bit of an unfair advantage.
67 on metacritic with 8 reviews. You would expect more from a movie like this. Even more concerning that the entire cast is not getting rave reviews. These stage to screen adaptions usually rely heavily on the performances and it seems like it underwhelms outside of Deadwyler.
Thank you brian♥💛♥ about the strong review of the piano lession Surprise the kind of film hirror😲 That mean the only good thing in film daneal deadwyler♥
It's a shame SLJ has fallen out of the race pretty much. He was nominated for a Tony for this role just this last year; it's disappointing that his role seems to have been diminshed and used more as background. Hope Daniella gets in, though!
Was he ever in the race, except in the minds of people who made predictions based on what it looked like on paper? I remember that someone months ago, when everyone else was predicting him to be the frontrunner for Best supporting actor, said that his role in the play is not that big and that they weren't sure why he was nominated for a Tony. It might have been just for name recognition, and because many years ago he originated the lead role (the one played by John David Washington in the movie).
@@FrakkinToasterLuvva I mean, that's an excellent point, but most of these predictions for almost two-thirds of the year are just in the minds of people based on what they see on paper. August Wilson film adaptations have, to date, provided good vehicles for actors to get nominated for Oscars so far (4 performances to date) and to damn near win them; I would say that Viola (for Ma Rainey), Chadwick (same film), and Denzel (for Fences) were probably the runners-up their respective years; Viola, of course, won for Fences. SLJ's role isn't a great or large one, based on my reading of the play years ago, but I thought sentiment alone would carry him to at least be on the list (maybe 4th or 5th place). I'm also thinking that the fact that no one seems to love this film suggests this film is not going to carry a freight train of nominations. Maybe one, two that's it.
If Malcolm Washington was guided in directing by his father Denzel Washington, who is one of the best actors in history but a rather flat director, no wonder the film is mediocre. The trailer already gave me a bad feeling.
I been told you all this movie it not the reason why someone hype it before see it because they don't have a good movie in be in top 10 best picture but we have WICKED the real good movie to be in 10 best picture but you all white man always make joke about this movie because you all never saw it and I tell you all what? / this movie WICKED is the only Universal Pictures make campaign to win Oscar they didn't choose any movie to nominated like this movie so they must pretty sure how good of this movie to win + this studio they have a lot of money to make this movie to win ( in a good way ) be careful when this movie come out you all own apologize !!!!!!
The choosed Wicked cuz any other movie with potencial belongs to universal 😭😭,i think it could get in into technical categories moreee than that mmmmmmiiidontknow jeje

I doubt Deadwyler will be snubbed again...unless Andrea Riseborough has a film coming out ;-)
😂😂😂
The Till snub still makes my blood boil

I think Danielle deadwyler is going to get an Oscar nomination for best supporting actress
I think she's got it in the bag. Maybe not win, but probably top-3. I think the growing force that is Emilia Perez could tilt it in Zoe's favor.
It's still 95% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Nobody believes in rotten tomatoes
Rotten Tomatoes just tells you whether the reviews are generally positive or negative, not whether they're raving about a movie or saying it's just OK.
@@FrakkinToasterLuvva You said it perfectly. And no one seems to be raving about this film.
Dear Hollywood, Stop trying to make denzel Washington's son happen.
He have sons
He was decent in “malcolm and marie”

@@dayvaughnmonroe9540 I always complain about it. lmao
The horror iS
slavery and that part - is what’s haunting the family . I think John David Washington is an actor that will grow over time -
John David Washington has been acting for over thirty years. How much more time does he need to grow?

Are we gonna have a review of The Substance???? Plz, I hope so! .... Greeting from Costa Rica 🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷
Can you rank the videos you watched?

I agree sadly. Even though she has put in some great work. I still think she should have been nominated for ‘From Scratch”
I saw the play and it was awesome . I am surprised Danielle Brooks’
didn’t reprise her role .
Best supporting actress
Felicity Jones
Zoe saldana
Anjulie ellis taylor
This are the 3 locks for now.
Ok Brian , Thank you so much for your review. I, really trust your assessment, we'll see what happens in the end. Thank you again.
I think lead actor is still wide open that I still have John David Washington in, and Deadwyler is for sure getting in. I'd argue maybe Ray Fisher has a small chance of getting in Supporting Actor as well.
You should do a ranking of the movies you saw!
Fences and beast of the southern wild was both based on plays and both really good movies
Love your impersonation of Sam Jackson's acting style in the second half of this film :)
I loved this movie so much and the 1995 adaptation. Both great!
It's uncanny. It was like I was watching Jackson in the movie. 😂
When are you reviewing hard truth
This is the problem i had with fences. They stayed inside 1 house throughout the film. It was tideous and very heavy handed.
Encanto proved that can be enjoyable... but I suppose the house being alive and having magical rooms that are bigger on the inside is a bit of an unfair advantage.
I felt that FENCES felt very stagey. We never got to see their son perform his jazz at the club.
Nothat dissapointing if it has 95% on rt and 7.3 on imdb. I hope iz gets oscars
If the movie is not that good, when it comes out in theaters and more people watch it, the rt score and imdb score will drop..
@@xrh_tm55 maybe
67 on metacritic with 8 reviews. You would expect more from a movie like this.
Even more concerning that the entire cast is not getting rave reviews. These stage to screen adaptions usually rely heavily on the performances and it seems like it underwhelms outside of Deadwyler.
You imitating Samuel L. Jackson 😂😂😂
Damn, I'm starting to notice a trend with these TIFF reviews.
I also disliked it a lot. Felt even more theatrical than Fences.
Samuel Jackson portrays an elderly man at least 70ish. How many older people do you see get up often.
One thing about Ms. Deadwyler she’s going to act the house down like there’s no tomorrow.
The Sam Jackson impression... 😭🤣
I tried to tell you about Sam... lol smh
I could see Samuel l Jackson getting the nom and the win as a career award and not for the piano lesson
Gotta disagree with you on this one.
Omg the shots fired at Samuel's acting in the second half is absolutely hilarious 😂😭!! I appreciate the reviews Brian😄🩵🫶🏾
Thank you for your insight
Thank you brian♥💛♥ about the strong review of the piano lession

His most important scene becomes a voice over a flashback.
@@ReviewsOnReels Oh lord, that's not good. He's doomed.
Thanks. No need to watch the video. Title says it all. 🤙🏼

I agree, it is a disappointing movie. Danielle Deadwyler was ok. I don't think think it's an Oscar winning performance.
I do hope Deadwyler gets a nomination at some point in her career for a worthy project.
