    This definitely had everything How the West was Won did not 

    Above all a sense of danger and experimentation 

    A dynamic camera that created a better sense of space 

    And howling wind sounds throughout that just felt more real 

    It also has an iconic theme song and guitar work on the soundtrack 

    It just proves why spaghetti westerns are better 

    And that ending! 

    The good guy won but it was the way in which he won

    Not much to complain about w this movie 

    Fun fast paced original story 

    Some killer needle drops 

    Some absolutely insanely edited action sequences that put the tennis ball through the screen 

    And also some pretty good acting 

    Like I don’t think this would have been as good with extra famous people 

    I didn’t like the ending the first time I watched it but I think I get it now … it’s about the love of the game and the spirit of competition (in many forms) staying alive in all the characters and I think that’s beautiful

    So good in so many ways 

    It was modern in its camerawork and the way it brought in found footage and audio 

    But also a good period piece with excellent feel 

    And it was a fantastic story 

    Everyone got what they deserved in the end and the flow was really really nice 

    It didn’t feel too long 

    The first and second half felt like 2 different movies 

    The first exhilarating, hopeful 

    The second darker, more impactful 

    The aura was just exuding from the screen 

    Has to be best picture
