I'm so disappointed by American Ultra's reviews. It had a premise that could have been pretty awesome, but it sounds like they dropped the ball. Wanted to see it, but probably won't.

Saw Creed on Thanksgiving Day... decent movie. Stallone was excellent.

I didn't even finish American Ultra. It started okay (parking lot scene was cool) but shit the bed pretty quick.

Instant shit the bed for me. I thought it would be right down my alley but it really stunk the place up quick.

I'm one of few people left that think Kristin Stewart is A) Hot and B) Talented, but "stoner Jason Bourne" looked fucking horrible.

Entertainment:


It had a kind of Harmony Korine feel to it, so that put it in my wheel house. It was fucked up, and I really liked it.

'Mad Max: Fury Road' Named Best Film by National Board of Review

DECEMBER 1, 2015 | 11:54AM PT

The National Board of Review has named "Mad Max: Fury Road" as the best film of 2015.

It was an unexpected victory for the summer tentpole starring Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron, which received favorable reviews when it opened in May, but is seen as an awards season longshot. So far, most of the advanced buzz in this year's Oscars race has focused on such indies as "Spotlight," "Brooklyn" and "Carol" versus the box office goliath "The Martian."

Ridley Scott received the best director award and Matt Damon best actor for "The Martian," which is expected to be a major awards season player. Brie Larson picked up best actress for "Room," the indie based on Emma Donoghue's novel. Sylvester Stallone earned best supporting actor for "Creed" and Jennifer Jason Leigh nabbed best supporting actress for "The Hateful Eight," Quentin Taraninto's upcoming Western, which also took home best original screenaply.

The NBR winners are selected by about 120 film fans from New York (who cast their ballots via email or fax), and the organization has a mixed track record of predicting Oscars success. Last year, the NBR offered a left-field pick by awarding J.C. Chandor's "A Most Violent Year" with best picture, actor (Oscar Isaac) and supporting actress (Jessica Chastain), only to see the picture get shut out completely at the Academy Awards. But the gala proved to be one of the early stops for eventual best actress winner Julianne Moore for her performance in "Still Alice."

The honorees will pick up their statues at the NBR dinner on Jan. 5, 2016 in New York at Cipriani 42nd Street. "Today's" Willie Geist will return as the evening's emcee.



Here are the full list of winners.

Best Film: "Mad Max: Fury Road"

Best Director: Ridley Scott, "The Martian"

Best Actor: Matt Damon, "The Martian"

Best Actress: Brie Larson, "Room"

Best Supporting Actor: Sylvester Stallone, "Creed"

Best Supporting Actress: Jennifer Jason Leigh, "The Hateful Eight"

Best Original Screenplay: Quentin Tarantino, "The Hateful Eight"

Best Adapted Screenplay: Drew Goddard, "The Martian"

Best Animated Feature: "Inside Out"

Breakthrough Performance: Abraham Attah, "Beasts of No Nation" and Jacob Tremblay, "Room"

Best Directorial Debut: Jonas Carpignano, "Mediterranea"

Best Foreign Language Film: "Son of Saul"

Best Documentary: "Amy"

William K. Everson Film History Award: Cecilia De Mille Presley

Best Ensemble: "The Big Short"

Spotlight Award: "Sicario" for outstanding collaborative vision

NBR Freedom of Expression Award: "Beasts of No Nation" and "Mustang"

If by kick, you mean getting a concussion as a result of banging my head against the wall in disgust, then yes, I'll probably get a kick out of it.

Great choices all around, really. Sly and Mad Max. Victory!

literally just saw about this news like 5 minutes ago and was pretty much coming in to say the same exact thing

I think I kinda feel ya, dude. I mean I don't think I disapproved of the movie as much as you did, but I'm also not on board with the friggin love fest at all.

oh well. "film critics"... pffftt...

[jamband1]

Rewatching The Interview and i'm cracking up.

Despite his douchey pomposity, Franco is underrated.

[scrock25]

The interview was absolutely terrible.

[jamband1]

I politely disagree.

I didn't want to do anything after seeing Room. Hopefully you're seeing that second

unfortunately they only have one showing of it, and it's the first showtime they have, so no

unless i push it back to friday, which i'm kinda starting to reconsider doing.

[Speilmen230]

Is it any surprise that Deadpool is being released in February? Isn't that typically a graveyard slot?

[Balor3012]

Considering Ryan Reynolds track record it could open any month and it would be a graveyard slot

It isn't anymore.

[jrod41]

Room and Spotlight were both fantastic. Sure locks for my top 10.

Now I'm gonna throw back several beers and rest, because that was emotionally draining

I did a triple feature last Friday. Brooklyn was the third film. It paled in comparison.

Saw Cold Mountain for the first time a couple of nights ago, that's some hard living
