    Anyone?
    Golden Globes, Oscar nominated, got great critical reviews (not always the best yardstick) but also on the two main Internet review sites.

    I saw it. It was good. But forgettable IMO. She might win for best actress. But honestly, nobody will care. It's leo's night.

    disagree, but keep being told what to think. It's funny to me.

    Watched it last night. Best Movie of the Year, hands down, no competition, after having watched the okay, but overrated Spotlight I can tell which one was the strongest drama with better performances (the little boy deserved a nomination, dammit!). It makes you sympathize with the characters, real tension in the escape attempt and you feel the pain of the victim being traumatized and scarred for life by the events. Unlike 'Spotlight' which prompt me just to mutter, 'wow that was scandalous' at the end, Room had me and my wife have a long chat about the Stockholm syndrome, isolation, child psychology & trauma, adaptation, the media circus around victims which makes them feel worst, etc. Any film that provokes this kind of conversation is a winner. 9/10
