      The Academy Awards — 82nd Oscars

      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin share an amiable comedic rapport, but their gentle barbs do little to liven up the placid 82nd Oscars, a ceremony that can't seem to decide whether it wants to be hip for the kids or staid for the old guard.

      Marina Hyde Guardian This was indeed a night that made history -- David Letterman is now no longer the worst-ever Oscars host. Co-presenters Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin proved they couldn't hit a gag with a trunkload of IEDs. Nov 13, 2019 Full Review Johanna Schneller Globe and Mail It had no moments that felt fleet, loose or new. It resembled nothing so much as a doomed ocean liner, huge and bloated, so determined to be stately that it couldn't turn itself around. Nov 13, 2019 Full Review Linda Holmes NPR Ultimately came off fairly well, nudged along by the advantageous fact that it ended up being a celebration of winners who are generally likable and sympathetic. Nov 13, 2019 Full Review Jeff Vice Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Despite organizers' promises that the show's opening would be the "most dynamic" in Oscar's history, though, it was dull -- Martin and Baldwin's gentle "ribbing" of the various nominees was unfunny. Nov 13, 2019 Full Review Mark A. Perigard Boston Herald The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences had the right idea when it selected two hosts for the Oscars. It just picked the two wrong men. Nov 13, 2019 Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin were game in their attempts to prop up the lame awards-show material, but they were somewhat restrained by the fact that a good half of the available jokes were off limits because freakin' Alec Baldwin was the punchline.
