I liked Anora, but I watched it before the Oscars, and I really didn't have any expectations going in (I think this matters a lot).I’m an hour into this. Can’t believe this movie swept the Oscars. Holy shyt, what credibility they had is gone.
I’ve only seen Demi in the Substance, and I didn’t think she should have won the Oscar at the time, but she did a better job than Mikey. fukkin movie about a stripper won so many awards.![]()

But the Oscars have had plenty of misses: Out of Africa, Crash; people seem to have a problem with Driving Miss Daisy, Terms of Endearment and Green Book winning,


Anora was a genre mess. There were several genres that didn’t mesh together. You could literally break down the acts and see when they switch up.
Mikey’s acting was nowhere near Oscar caliber. Movie is about a bird with no brain blinded by wealth and thought she found “love.”
It’s not a bad movie, but it’s something I won’t watch again. Also, I can’t be the only one who wanted more fukkery with the candy store owner?![]()
I mean, Mikey pretty much nailed that character. That's what a Brooklyn stripper would act and sound like.
Marisa Tomei won an Oscar for playing a similar character 3 decades ago, except she wasn't a sex worker.
They basically paid for that Oscar and there's a long list of women who win awards for playing sex workers and the like so it wasnt a coincidence. But Demi was never really an Oscar caliber actress, I wanted her to win as a legacy type thing but check out her flicks from the 90s like Disclosure, A Few Good Men and GI Jane. And ironically she payed a stripper in Strip Tease in '96, which was a notorious flop but her body was crazy built.I’m an hour into this. Can’t believe this movie swept the Oscars.

Oh Emma's character starts out like a child and once she discovers fukking she makes up for lost time.I might watch Poor Things later. I read Emma’s character is basically a hoe too.
