    Now that the Cannes Film Festival has come to a close, we can take a breath and look at just how the films that played In Competition at the fest were received. Screen Daily came up with a handy graph that you can see in full after the jump, but keep in mind…this isn’t the be all/end all in terms of how the flicks did. A lot of films have a higher average on the chart than the actual reviews would suggest, so simply remember this is a small gathering of critics. Just something to chew on as you take a gander at it. Anyhow, give it a look and see what you think…

    About Joey Magidson


    When he’s not obsessing over new Oscar predictions on a weekly basis, Joey is seeing between 200 and 300 movies a year. He views the best in order to properly analyze the awards race/season each year, but he also watches the worst for reasons he mostly sums up as "so you all don't have to". In his spare time, you can usually find him complaining about the Jets or the Mets. Still, he lives and dies by film. Joey's a voting member of the Internet Film Critics Association as well. Today the IFCA, tomorrow the world!

    3. According to this chart, both Mud and On the Road seem to have gotten a better reception than I was lead to believe (and Lawless, Holy Motors, and Cosmopolis seem to have gotten worse). In any case, I’ll probably end up seeing them all before the year is over. Also, it’s always cool to see movies like Love pop onto the awards radar from out of nowhere, and I’m more excited than ever to see Killing Them Softly.
