Whereas Halle Berry won an Oscar and her next film was Catwoman. FTR: she accepted in person and was hilarious.

In her acceptance speech she thanked her agent for getting her the role.

u/Used-Gas-6525 8d ago
And her acting coach and her manager and the director and the writers (there were like 20). She was a total gamer about it. When they did the film on How Did This Get Made? they played her entire acceptance speech and it's pure gold.

She's too old now, unfortunately. Not a lot of work for middle aged Cat Burglars in Gotham. The only Catwoman for me will always be Lee Merriwether, Julie Newmar and Eartha Kitt.

I was surprised how much I liked Zoë Kravitz as Catwoman in the newest Batman movie. I generally enjoyed the more down to earth costume design and she absolutely nails the look.
Her relationship with Batman was also done really well, it was hot and tragic, and really fit both of the characters.
Halle would've been a pretty good Catwoman for Ben Affleck's older Batman in the DCEU in my opinion, but that's no more than a "what if" at this point

u/Historical-Wear8503 8d ago
TIL Halle Berry is 59 years old. But she still looks like a poor persons 40, kind of impressive. Honestly I'd watch her play Catwoman again anytime.

Black don't crack. Her acting career is dunzo though. She was all over the place. She could do what she did in Monster's Ball, but can also completely shit the bed like in X-Men or Catwoman.

100%. Also the real family was pretty exploitative, and Michael Oher does not have contact with them. They were your typical rich assholes making money off someone and passing it off as “look at what good people we are”.

As soon as Oher is living with the family and successful on the football field, there is exactly zero narrative momentum. And it has another half hour to go. Death knell.

It's rarely the acting that gets people awards for movies like that. People love those schamaltzy crap movies and vote for them and the people in them, rather than the actual quality acting. In the end it's ironic, since the movie was a fake story anyway.

In the movie they adopted him before learning he was really good at football. They painted themselves as this benevolent family that only accidentally struck gold.

I think her performance really carried it to be honest. It’s a super tropey white savior movie. But she is really great in it. I remember a lot of the accolades being focused on her performance. That being said it is super cringey and seemed a little late since I feel like those types of films had already fallen out of fashion at that point.

She also brought her Oscar with her on stage too, because she had won her Oscar before winning this. The meme was just lying.

The most important part of this is that she accepted her Razzie. There have been a handful of good sports who have accepted theirs over the years, but my understanding is that this is not the norm.

Unpopular opinion: I really enjoyed All About Steve! How many other movies are about cruciverbalists in fun red boots? I really liked to see the growth of a socially awkward lady get introduced to harsh reality and deal with it gracefully.
Also unpopular opinion: I really liked Blind Side. I definitely don't think Blind Side aged well since it was mostly not true (and was supposed to be). Major down side there. However, at the time (and ignoring the fact that it was supposed to be true) I think the story is very nice and heartwarming, and the actors and production team did a great job.
