The Academy Awards — 91st Oscars

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Strong musical performances, a steady, somewhat sluggish pace, and a few genuinely surprising moments helped the host-less 91st Oscars create an entertainingly efficient -- if not entirely satisfying -- ceremony.

Max Weiss Baltimore Magazine 02/25/2019
Look, the Oscars will always be the Oscars-the fashion, the high stakes, the upsets, the stars-but there was a workmanlike, nearly joyless quality to last night's show that rubbed me the wrong way. Go to Full Review Sonia Saraiya Vanity Fair 02/25/2019
It was, tonally, a lovely arc-especially because the awards also ended up celebrating so many women. And it was fun. We should have guessed that it would be; nothing beats the thrill of improv somehow going right. Go to Full Review Kelly Lawler USA Today 02/25/2019
This year's Oscars ran about 3 hours and 22 minutes, but by the time "Green Book" won best picture it felt like the camera had been rolling for days. Go to Full Review Camilla Long Sunday Times (UK) 03/04/2019
The Oscars was great television this year. Go to Full Review Óscar Cruz La Nación (Costa Rica) 02/28/2019

Suzanne L 02/28/2019 Without a host, it wasn't as funny or interesting. I enjoyed the musical numbers and montages. Samuel Jackson's enthusiasm was great! See more Stephen P 02/26/2019 time to end this farce of celebritie back slapping. and trump bashing. didnt watch it never watched it wouldnt ever watch it. no one lbut the execs like the arty farty movies that win. See more Jeremiah C 02/26/2019 Not at all interested in watching a bunch of pedophiles and rapists congratulating themselves. See more Vangel V 02/26/2019 The show sucked even worse than in previous years. Frankly, I don't think that most of the Academy members bothered seeing the movies. See more Suellen J 02/26/2019 this was the best one to date. Love that acceptance speeches were not political but of gratitude to those who got them the award. AND the opening set the energy for the entire night. loved it. See more Gibronez B 02/26/2019 Hostless?? That's not true at all. We all know that every person watching and every paid dancing monkey on stage that night had President Donald J. Trump living in their heads rent free t he entire night. BEST PRESENTER OF ALL TIME. I mean seriously, even the bloody stage looked like his hair. You all just need to admit the POTUS 45 makes you wet, especially the feminist soy bois. See more Read all reviews
