      Alison Herman The Ringer A show that presented itself as transgressive, but remained steadfastly safe. Self-congratulation was the overriding theme of the 2017 Academy Awards. Oct 29, 2019 Full Review Melanie McFarland Salon.com Not once did Kimmel commit any egregious errors while fulfilling his hosting obligations. His punchlines landed... Be that as it may, when people look back on this Oscars show, his performance will rank low on the list of memorable moments. Oct 29, 2019 Full Review Willa Paskin Slate La La Land was announced Best Picture, seemingly crowning a dull night, but, in fact, inaugurating a crazy one. The ending of the show completely overshadowed everything that came before it, even as it undermined any coherent sense of trajectory. Oct 29, 2019 Full Review Jeff Simon Buffalo News Jimmy Kimmel was pretty good, stealing as much as he could from the Ellen Degeneres playbook... A good, solid B-plus job, but Degeneres remains the best since Billy Crystal. Nov 5, 2019 Full Review Armond White National Review The most politicized -- and most nauseating -- Oscar program in history. Oct 29, 2019 Full Review Oliver Lyttelton The Playlist It's destined to sit... in any future list of the most shameful Oscar moments. It's all of those things. And yet it was an oddly thrilling, and oddly moving moment, and one that anyone watching is unlikely to forget any time soon. Oct 29, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
