AD Critics Poll: 'Get Out' tops the chart of 2017 favorites, so far - Awards Daily - awardsdaily.com
Despite the sheer number of films released so far this year — estimated at more than 350 — a core group of 10-15 films recurred on list after list. There was more agreement than disparity, especially when it came to Jordan Peele’s movie. The widespread assessment also appears to be that it’s been a better than average movie year thus far, despite the assumption that most studios tend to release their weaker films in the first half of the year.
As expected, festival-going critics mentioned films that screened at venues like Cannes and Sundance that they predict will be among the most critically acclaimed movies of the fall. The most frequently mentioned of these were Luca Guadagnino’s “Call Me by Your Name,” Sean Baker’s “The Florida Project,” The Safdie Brothers’ “Good Time,” Dee Rees’ “Mudbound,” and Kogonada’s “Columbus.”
Although most those are as yet unseen by the vast majority of critics polled, the enthusiastic support by the dozen or so festival-goers who did mention these titles suggests that they will most likely appear on hundreds of critics’ year-end “best of” lists. Foremost among them was Guadagnino’s coming of age masterpiece, which premiered at Sundance in January, and which topped all 6 critics lists on which it was mentioned. “The Florida Project,” a Cannes entry, was the other prominently mentioned fest title. CineVue’s John Bleasdale told us, “I suspect this will be the year that Sean Baker breaks into the mainstream.”
), dus dat was goed gedaan. Anderzijds vond ik de laatste 15 à 20 minuten compleet underwhelming en nogal voorspelbaar. De opbouw was zeker goed, de finale een stuk minder. Het afsluitende shot net voor de credits mocht er dan weer wel zijn en maakte het toch een beetje goed.
