Nomadland is a perfect example of cinema about people. The very real people that surround Frances McDormand's Fern are the very heart of this story, as it explores grief, and what it means to leave everything behind, and live out in the wilds, as a nomad. Its narrative feels very human, authentic, and is suitably heartwarming whilst being drenched in melancholy.
McDormand is fantastic as she tends to be. Her performance here is one that comes from someone who has perfected their craft.
The cinematography on display is quite simply stunning. Nomadland is overflowing with beautiful shots and vistas. Chloé Zhao has given us a visual feast to go along with everything else, and it's complimented by a gorgeous music score.

I honestly can't think of a single bad thing to say about Nomadland. I can understand why it might not be for everyone, but I found it to be a wonderful experience. A story that deserves to be told and one that made me question what I'm doing with my own life. Fully deserves all the praise it's getting.

A weird, gross, seedy, nonsensical piece of tough-as-nails fluff that I found to be immensely enjoyable. In terms of both its looks and its writing, it plays a whole lot less like Reed Morano's heartbreaking portrait of grief in 𝘔𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘰𝘸𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘥 and a *lot* more like Ang Lee taking a stab at 𝘗𝘦𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘵. The main critique (besides the fact that this movie is illiterate pace-wise and makes not a drop of sense - both perfectly valid) seems to be that this didn't take the route of generic actioner, to which I reply with a resounding... lmfao k. Visually fetching, and that score *slaps* - not to mention the action is swift and brutal, that car chase is an all-fucking-timer. Amounts to a globetrotting asskicker where Blake Lively sleeps and stumbles around gorgeous locations while beating the shit out of and verbally chastising every man she comes across, we love to see it. Like a delectably oafish hybrid of 𝘏𝘢𝘺𝘸𝘪𝘳𝘦 and 𝘈𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘈𝘴𝘴𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘯, which you can sign me right the hell up for.
