I was so ready to be blown away by the movie, like the director, but do not like all his movies, was on ‘Democracy Now’ before ‘Sinners’ came out…
…But while watching it, towards the middle I was like it is good, but no where near as good as the build-up was about & I was expecting!
I have heard that it is creatively different than others, but wait a heck of a second there, have they watch a lot of vampire movies, in that time?
I heard it is Bluezy (SP?), well these last 10-years I have added Blues to my music group. So that was okay, but not making it a nominated movie.
The acting, by Michael B. Jordan being awesome. Okay, I will admit that I am not the best judge of acting, unlike the whole of movies that I am real good at & give a lot of benefit of the doubt. So okay maybe give actor, of two-main characters in the movie, Michael B. Jordan a nomination & maybe, win the nomination.

As a very serious veteran & long term activist & political person, through Independent & Left-Far Left media-
Have these nominators really watched ‘One Battle, After Another’? Talk about creative, different than tons that has come before & will come after, on par with when I watched ‘Matrix’ & talked about on the way home. As I said, after watching ‘One Battle, After Another’, it was one of the best movies I have ever watched! Yes, actor Leonardo DiCaprio did an awesome job, with a role he next to never plays, but so did Sean Penn & every single actor/actress in the main roles. Yes, I admit I am a bad judge of acting, but their performances were so awesome, believable that they broke through my inability judge acting.
Movie’s script was believable!

Yeah, let us not forget the legend that is Buddy Guy, at the end, especially.

‘Dusk Till Dawn’, the best thing about that was stripper Salma Hayek, back in the day, give me a night, PLEASE! Like her body was in porn first, but as an actress is awesome, as well, but now older not so hot. Like I am older & less hot.

I to am older and less hot. Don't think I was ever very hot though but I had some things my wife liked. She wanted a faithful husband though and took chris rocks advice to heart.

So true, there are more important things, than just attractiveness. Your wife I assume was a wise woman.

She is. I used pass tense for liked because I meant when she met me not that she is gone. We talk about we are together because both of us realize life is hard enough with out making it harder than it needs to be.

Sorry, should have used is, instead of was.
