Now I think the movie was very beautiful and heartwarming as well as a very well timed film, but (I know I will be the villain here) is this really what is passing for best film at the Oscar's potentially?. Have Hollywood been so over soaked with remakes and super hero movies that we are just getting a watered down version of what we consider great films. Coda was a lovely movie and the source material was great, but I just don't know if I can come to call this a best picture worthy film. I hope most cinephiles like me are not satisfied with CODA being the best movie that filmmakers have to offer us over an entire year. We need to get back to making original films from the great directors that we have. I know marvel an DC movies will not stop being made because of the money they generate but they are destroying the movie industry and the reason so many potentially great films are not being made and we are settling for basically a Disney style film as being the potential winner of the highest achievement in film in 2021. I don't mean to be harsh and I enjoyed the acting and art direction and everything about CODA, but I cannot give it a 10 or except this as the best film Hollywood has to offer us. Sorry :)
