Ellen was entertaining, if in a frieindly, safe, way. Doing that without being boring must be a challenge but I thought she pulled it off. The production quality was fine with no overly produced segments that were over the top. All of the presenters were gracious and did not draw attention away from the nominees. Personal politics were kept to a minimum and were not malicious in any way.
The Pilobolus dancers were excellent. Even the musical segments were kept subtle, but the Dreamgirls numbers did go on too long. All in all it was a smooth, enjoyable viewing experience that showcased the film industry, which is exactly what it's supposed to do. I don't know what all the criticism is all about, but it's starty to feel a little stuffy in here.
