12 years a slave

Just watched this film and I consider that it did not deserve its many accolades and awards.
Very disjointed and far too gory, average acting performances and occasionally stilted script....all in all not a film I could recommend.

I haven't seen it yet but would certainly never watch a film due to any nominations
