3. The Hurt Locker
It was a good war movie during the times, but it doesn’t have a hook that will force multiple viewings. Given the fact that it was up against Avatar which is one of the most spectacular cinematic achievement in 3D technology, the Oscar seems a bit too much.
4. The Blind Side
Sandra Bullock is a fun, classy woman who is a good entertainer but doesn’t tell me that she delivered an Oscar-worthy performance in ‘The Blind Side’. It was a feel-good sports inspiration movie like many others in the past, but never deserved the attention it got.
5. Crash
Believe it or not, this movie won the Best Picture Oscar in 2006 beating vastly superior films like Brokeback Mountain and Good Night and Good Luck. It was the greatest coup in the history of Oscars.
