Summary of 2017 in cinema
Today is the day. Academy awards comming in few hours. Some say those are the most important awards in film industry, well I don’t think so. But it really is kind of summary for this award period for achievments in film and kind of closure. So I watched a loooot of movies from 2017 (like every year) and though I’m not specialist or respected critic I decided to go my list of greatest achievments in each categories. I’m a film maniac after all so I think I know a thing or two. I chose categories about which I have at least some idea and I can “judge” them in this SUBJECTIVE RANK.
I will do it like this. Few movie or people names worth mention (in random order) and the best one or “the winner” in bold font.

2) Call Me By Your Name
1) Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri <3
Worst of the year? Hard to choose because in opposit to critics I mostly watch movies I really want to see. But there was few dissapointments:
King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, Baywatch, Snatched, Justice League, Killing Sacred Deer. And abut Last Jedi...it’s a good movie I just really expected more.
