What to Know

Critics Consensus

Ellen Degeneres breaks the internet with a record-setting selfie, impromptu pizza, and a genial warmth that smoothly pilots an Oscars ceremony free of glaring gaffes -- if a little bereft of spontaneity.

Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly The show was trim, fleet, elegant, and organic, with few unnecessary bells and whistles; almost everything in it seemed to have a purpose. Nov 13, 2019 Full Review David Denby The New Yorker The Oscars on Sunday night were a bland, unimpassioned, rhythmless, endless show that should put to shame all of us who have spent the past four months speculating about who would or wouldn't win. Nov 13, 2019 Full Review Dana Stevens Slate The mere fact that an unsurprising Oscar outcome could contain not only this much diversity, but also this much valuation of serious, difficult work was heartening. Nov 13, 2019 Full Review Matt Roush TV Guide DeGeneres was a friendly, funny and refreshingly grounded host in a classy, though typically overstuffed and overlong, ceremony distinguished by some memorably moving speeches. Nov 13, 2019 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette DeGeneres brought predictable respectability to Sunday's 86th Academy Awards. Too bad this particular brand of predictable respectability was a bore. Nov 13, 2019 Full Review Marlow Stern The Daily Beast Ladies and gentlemen: I'm shocked -- shocked! -- to inform you that the '14 Oscars were actually quite good. In fact, they were better than good. They were excellent, and the best they've been in a decade. Nov 13, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
