Oscar - Double Bill

Inspite of the hectic last 10 days, I still managed to watch couple of movies, that had Oscar nominations, over the weekend.
Charlie Wilson's War - I picked this one for sheer star cast and reputation. Tom Hanks was his usual best, Seymour Hoffman was funny as ever and Julia Roberts was good. The movie inspite of brillaint star cast lacked intensity that you would usually associate with political dramas. That probably could be the reason for Oscar nomination but no win.


Juno - This is one of those type of movie that I would normally decide not to watch by just looking at DVD cover. This one had two Oscar nominations and of course has beautiful looking Jennifer Garner and Ellen Page, it was difficult to pass. The movie was average, the over hyped dialogues (the writer actually won the Oscar) are not so witty, the movie turned out to be very boring even for my wife.
