    Very rarely I've hated a film. the last film that I intensely hated was "300" in English and "Aadhavan" in Tamil. I'm comfortably out of "hub pandithargal" in that I find reasons to like every other film.

    Btw "Broken Embraces" not among the nominations leads me to download all the oscar nominated foreign language films. I've downloaded Baaria, The Maid, Prophet, and Ajami. "The milk of sorrow" is next up. I'm going to watch 'em all.

    Yeah? But last decade weren't any better, it's been very predictable. 90's weren't bad. I suppose one goes all the way up to 70's to feel anything close to "excited" state. That was an awesome decade, I opened a 70's thread for you oldies (:P) to comment on. No response

    Watched it. Totally agree with underline part! Liked the aerial shot that goes all the way down to chasing the suspect. This film comes closest in tapping the vibe and passion of Football stadium. I'd like to know how they shot that. Helicopter shot is conjoined by crane shot which would again be replaced by a handheld camera. Well done

    @ number of misses and still, it's got so much quality in there as nominations if not the winner.
