I heard this film was one of the worst oscar nominated pics, even worse than The Blind Side. But I'm not gonna judge, I haven't seen it. Might check it out. Love the covers. It is just me or is John Goodman in EVERY movie?
Also, the side of the film boxes looks like it says 'Extremely & Incredibly Loud Close'.

Missed this film in theaters, will rent.
No, it really doesn't. The first Sherlock was great but the sequel? So disappointing. Guy Ritchie, get it together.
The sequel was okay, IMO, not great, not terrible, but I can understand that you were disappointed. But I would rather own that than this, not saying this is good/bad because I haven't seen it. I would rather rent this film than own it.

Oscar nod over the 9/11 tragedy, that's all. If you can watch that movie for 15 minutes and NOT want to backhand that kid, you are a saint.
Worst Best Picture nominee ever. Every print and negative should be burned.
a quote on the back from carrie keegan?!! lmao!!
Why does the kid have slightly pink nails on the blu-ray cover????
This film is emotionally manipulative, and far from Oscar worthy. It seems like a contest, how many sad things can we incorporate in one film? Poor autistic kid's father gets killed in the terrorist attacks. Have mercy. The ending doesn't even make any logical sense. Also, how come we don't meet more of the people named "Black?" That seems to be one of the film's goals, why didn't we meet more?
Last thing I want to say, I don't care what people say or how delicately they put it - the "Oskar" character is insufferable and nauseatingly overwritten. Overly precocious, cocky, and makes for an exhausting protagonist.

Warner keeps on being one of the most anorexic companies in terms of features... pass.
I could rant about how much I hated this movie for a while, but I'll just quote Tom Long's agreeable review: "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" is the kind of movie you want to punch in the nose.
OK film but FAR from oscar worthy
