The film was applauded by several movie critics and ordinary moviegoers alike, and has been nominated and won several prestigous awards this year. 

According to Ben Green of Doncaster Free Press, the movie is a "complete truimph."

"The film is a success on many levels," he said.

"Iñárritu's exquisite direction weaves together some great storytelling, stellar performances, a sublime drum score, and razor-sharp black humour, to create an engrossing piece of cinema which delights and moves the viewer in equal measure."

"The mesmeric Keaton gives a career-best performance as Riggan Thompson, a 'washed-up' Hollywood actor who puts together a Broadway show in a effort to salvage his life," he continued.

Here is a short description of the movie according to Google:

"Former cinema superhero Riggan Thomson (Michael Keaton) is mounting an ambitious Broadway production that he hopes will breathe new life into his stagnant career. It's risky, but he hopes that his creative gamble will prove that he's a real artist and not just a washed-up movie star. As opening night approaches, a castmate is injured, forcing Riggan to hire an actor (Edward Norton) who is guaranteed to shake things up. Meanwhile, Riggan must deal with his girlfriend, daughter and ex-wife."
