You rarely get to see something so emotionally deep and true, filmed in such a captivating way. Birdman is exactly the type of movie I had been secretly hoping to see - an autopsy of the human soul with all its joys and sorrows, presented in a form that did not turn this into a pseudo-psychological analysis filled with wannabe philosophical questions, but rather an absolutely amazing spectacle with an effort to appeal to both the art film lovers and mainstream audience. A critique of the world of film and theatre as well as the critics and the entire entertainment industry. In a word, excellent. Absolutely brilliant acting performances! Yes, I would love to see this at least one more time.
