75 Everyone is allotted one Forrest Gump in their lives. This is mine. Almost entirely based in lies, notions of misconstruing blackness, in addition to plain ole’ white savior bullshit. Green Book is embarrassing. And yet, it is, against my better judgement and every fiber of my being as a socially-conscious viewer, immensely watchable, with two tremendous performances at the forefront and handsomely told. Sean Porter’s DP work is gorgeous. Mahershala Ali offers a universe of emotion via a shift in posture, a lowering of the head. And Viggo Mortensen is hilarious, always shoving food in his mouth, and when he’s not, spouting off on race relations like he’s the expert on what black people are supposed to listen to…

English teachers everywhere are gonna bust a nut when this hits home video because it’s an absolute wet dream of a “movie to show to my class that deals with Serious Issues in a non-confrontational and palatable way when I don’t have a lesson plan.”

best picture showcase: film #5 (kinda sorta) “you’re a prick, you know that?” the best picture nominee equivalent of watery, room temperature oatmeal. this was so incredibly dull that it baffles me how far something like this can get when such unique, bold and innovative movies have come out in the same year. there have even been much better safe and easily accessible comfort movies this year as well, but somehow this is one of 2018’s so called highlights? have people been watching this blindfolded? sure, it’s somewhat harmless, but it bothers me so because it lacks in almost every way: uninspiring, uninteresting, undeserving. i’m tempted to give it half a star, but bumped it up because mahershala ali truly brings his a-game to every role he plays. otherwise, this brings me nothing but exhaustion. we can do better than this, we owe ourselves that much

A road trip film? Check. That runs through Christmas time? Check. Viggo Mortensen in a hilarious role; Mahershala Ali being suave as all hell; the most charming on-screen pairing in recent memory? Check, check, and check. People will argue how Green Book could have dug deeper into its themes of race and adversity that came with its setting. It definitely could have, but I feel other films are better suited for that; Farrelly chose to focus on themes of camaraderie, development, learning and loving, all with delightful results. It’s perfect for what it is, and there’s something for everyone to love.

While touchin serious topics like racism and culture, it brings the light and ability to connect 2 different cultures together in a fulfilling way. Likable characters and amazing story

Funny movie with funny Aragorn, Dr. Shirley’s acting and mannerisms were great I aspire to eat as much as Aragorn in this movie and now I kinda wanna eat some fried chicken while driving Also 50 bucks in 1962 is like $500 today so that hot dog contest was crazy return on investment 4.1/5

Plot was simple to understand, easy to digest and enjoyable and has rewatch value. Viggo Mortensen and Mahershala did an amazing performance especially the scene in the rain where he is trying to find his self identity. Simple and sweet movie

“The world is full of lonely people afraid to make the first move” . L.t.f.f if you know , you know. Wonderful movie. Really liked the friendship btwn italian mobster tony lip and piano man. If i had a Italian mob nickname , i wonder what itd be . Arnav cookies. Maybe Reminds me of my glorious piano days, in which my first recital i forgot half the song , panicked and played only the start and end . That was the last of my career. Needed a whiskey on the piano. 🥃

A masterclass movie – delightful acting, witty dialogue, phenomenal soundtrack + a measured dose of uncomfortable civil rights history.

beyond the shallow writing, the inability to grasp at anything tangible of its main theme, the “hokey charm”, the most redeeming quality of this movie is viggo mortenson’s screen presence, especially when eating a pizza via the most diabolical method possible

An amazing movie about a black musician who hires a mobster as his driver and watching the mobster navigate sundown towns and what it meant to be a black man in the south in the 1960s.

This movie was perfect the story was really emotional, the pacing was fantastic alongside the wonderful writing. So many deep and impactful lines throughout I have no complaints, all of the actors were amazing, and the fact that it was a true story really cemented it in my top 4. I’d recommend every person I know to watch this film, not only as a fan of U.S. History but a fan of good movies.

these mfers can act , damn what a great movie. really feel the building of these two building their relationship , although the movie highlights the social issues that are still relevant to now; I enjoyed the overall bonding of the two people in this film.

how on earth did this win best picture? Managed to knock Jerry Maguire out of the top spot for most baffling watch of the year. I did enjoy Viggo’s Forrest Gump-esque depiction of an Italian man learning to read and write English
