      Phil Reeves Independent (UK) [Steven Spielberg's] triumph, complete with a tearful on-stage tribute to the six million Jews who died in the Holocaust, was the highlight of the 66th Academy Awards, but it was by no means the only one. Nov 12, 2019 Full Review Jay Boyar Orlando Sentinel The open secret about classiness is that it's usually pretty boring... This year's Oscarcast was only a little more exciting than a wine snob droning on about his favorite vintages. Nov 12, 2019 Full Review Howard Rosenberg Los Angeles Times Goldberg not only was uncontroversial -- and who cared about that one way or the other? -- but her humor wilted in a blessedly brief 3-hour-and-18-minute telecast that screamed out for something dramatically comical to raise it from its deadly lethargy. Nov 12, 2019 Full Review Candice Russell South Florida Sun-Sentinel Appearing relaxed and in control, Whoopi Goldberg hosted the ceremony in Los Angeles with grace. There was none of the self-aggrandizing joke-making of former host Billy Crystal, who could be hilarious or painfully long-winded. Nov 12, 2019 Full Review James Endrst Hartford Courant Whoopi Goldberg took the live mike and ran with it. Tartly taunting the critics, the network and the world, she power-packed her politics into an opening monologue... She wasn't always hot. But she was cool. Nov 12, 2019 Full Review Chris Hicks Deseret News (Salt Lake City) The Oscar telecast, though faster paced than usual, was rather dull. First-time host Whoopi Goldberg couldn't seem to connect with the audience, and her material was laced with tired jokes. Nov 12, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
