      Critics Consensus

      Dances with Wolves waltzes away with the top prizes during a lumbering 63rd Oscars that never finds an engrossing rhythm, despite Billy Crystal's reliably charming shtick.

      Hal Boedeker Miami Herald The Oscar telecast itself was a lumpy affair. It opened with a jarring and uninspired production number celebrating 100 years of movies. Dec 23, 2021 Full Review Rick Du Brow Los Angeles Times It was a long day's journey into night for Oscar, one of the most effective sleeping pills of the year. Dec 23, 2021 Full Review Greg Joseph Arizona Republic It was part Billy Crystal stand-up comedy concert, part Madonna music video and part Discovery Channel documentary on the history of film, spaced by windy acceptance speeches. Dec 23, 2021 Full Review Hal Lipper Tampa Bay Times The three-hour, 29-minute broadcast was hosted by a surprisingly flat Billy Crystal, whose wit cut like a three-week-old razor blade. Dec 24, 2021 Full Review George Anderson Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Overall, the show was competent, if not exactly inspired. But it had no important flubs and no major upsets. Giving the people what they want has always been a Hollywood tradition. Dec 23, 2021 Full Review Diane Holloway Austin American-Statesman All the usual flaws were there. But Crystal was a positive force. If the Academy is smart, it will keep him on indefinitely as the host. Dec 23, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
