It’s Oscars season and we’re reviewing the Academy’s big category picks. ‘Lady Bird’ (starring Saoirse Ronan and Laurie Metcalf) is directed by Greta Gerwig and has nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress (Ronan), Best Supporting Actress (Metcalf), and Best Original Screenplay.

Synopsis:

“An outspoken teen must navigate a loving but turbulent relationship with her strong-willed mother over the course of an eventful and poignant senior year of high school.”

We put the movie through our critically acclaimed rating system, which grades based on four categories:

1. Did we like it?

2. How did everyone look?

3. Will we steal stuff from it?

4. Is it problematic?
