      Critics Consensus

      Carolina Belen S Fue horrible, fue horribleeeeee Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/17/23 Full Review richard d Lol this was fun to watch. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Let's be real, if slapgate didn't happen this show would just another annual dreadful awards show with no substance and a bunch of celebrity in one big circlejerk over a bunch of movies most people don't care for. Take away that Will Smith faux pas and I wouldn't even know the Oscars even happened when it did. As ugly as an incident it was, it made for a fun topic to gossip about and for that, this year's Oscars gets 2 stars from me, otherwise I wouldn't even bother. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Pete S The hosts were obnoxiously unfunny, and the fact that they removed certain portions from the live show was beyond stupid. If they thought that eliminating the categories that actually put in the work to make movies great and keeping all the glamorous, elitist celebrities in to pat themselves on the back for a million hours straight would draw a better audience, they were hilariously mistaken. A bunch of movies no one has heard of or cares about; very few of the movies people actually watched or appreciated. Talk about not knowing your audience. Of course, that's not the point--it's to congratulate themselves and preach at us peasants about how we need to start caring about "the current thing" all while they don't give a crap. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/06/22 Full Review Oofrian P The show was overshadowed by the crazy events that took place and the show just cant shake it off. The actions that took place have no place in the oscars and it is a shame that this is what we are going to remember years later.

      Rob Sheffield Rolling Stone The whole night was a buffet of Hollywood crazy. I thought this Oscars had already set an all-time record for mind-blowingly tasteless decisions until they had a cheerleading squad sing “Spirit in the Sky” for the In Memoriam montage. Mar 30, 2022 Full Review Ben Travers indieWire Hate should have no place at the Oscars, but here we are, looking right at it. And as much as we may like to, we can’t forget the 2022 Oscar telecast was a catastrophe outside of its defining moment. Otherwise, the years to come will only follow suit. Rated: D Mar 29, 2022 Full Review Esther Zuckerman Thrillist It was an Oscars that tried to buddy up to its viewers, to make them feel like they were part of the show. It instead resulted in something distorted and infinitely uncomfortable. Mar 29, 2022 Full Review Vinay Menon Winnipeg Free Press Was that real? Did Will Smith just clock Chris Rock? Am I hallucinating? Apr 11, 2022 Full Review Sameen Amer The News International (Pakistan) Plummeting ratings and dwindling viewer interest in the Oscars over the last few years has had the Academy scrambling...little did anyone expect that an appalling physical confrontation would end up becoming the most talked about moment of the evening. Apr 4, 2022 Full Review Poulomi Das Firstpost If given an option between the Oscars and an awkward high-school reunion next year, I am gonna stick with going back to school.
