I feel like it’s a good movie, but not a great one. It’s carried by it’s director and supporting cast. I don’t think the script is great and Walhberg is far too passive (Both an acting flaw and an inherent flaw in the script).

I have yet to see “127 Hours”, “Toy Story 3”, “The Kids Are All Right” and “The Social Network”, but the last two are sitting at home as we speak. So far I’ve gotta say I think “The King’s Speech” has it on lock down, with “The Social Network” being it’s only real competition. It’s a great film, but more specifically it’s exactly the kind of film I feel like the Academy gravitates towards.

Watched it twice. Like you mentioned, everything is just very well done. I still have “The King’s Speech” and “127 hours” left to see out of the nominees but right now my feeling is that it’s a toss-up between “The Social Network” and “The Fighter” (with Social Network probably getting the edge).
