...seems they got something right this year though.

...girls who do say “aww” all the time, a movie can’t ask for meaningful responses from its audience, such as critical thought, self-criticism or—God forbid—temporary confusion. Instead, give them The Hobbit. Or give them Gosford Park, a film whose British accents do not mask its simplicity both as a drama and as a mystery...
