Movie Reviews
You have to see this movie
This was, in my
opinion, one of the best movies of 2015. The way the movie was filmed
was astonishing, the actors were great and the story was good as well.
The film was shot using only natural light so all of the scenes in the
movie look authentic. I have never seen a film shot so gracefully to the
point where when each scene starts I am amazed again. Every scene feels
like you are in it. And the bear scene that everyone is talking about,
is mind-blowing. Honestly, I do not know how they did that but if you
see the movie for nothing else, see it for the bear. The actors did very
good as well. Leonardo DiCaprio has another stand out performance along
with Tom Hardy who did great as well. Many people felt like DiCaprio
did not show enough emotion for his role but I think he played the role
perfectly for the type of character he was. I do not think this was his
best performance but I also do not think this was his worst, it is one
of his best. The story did not carry the film to me. I felt like it was a
good story but the acting and the visuals of the movie really carried
it.
So,
