Great Gatsby, The
USA 2013, 143 minutes
Dir. Baz Luhrmann
Genres: Drama
Topics: Period 1920s.
Feat. Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Carey Mulligan, Joel Edgerton, Elizabeth Debicki, Isla Fisher, Jason Clarke, Amitabh Bachchan, Jack Thompson
Synopsis: Baz Luhrmann directs F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel of Jazz Age decadence as a full-blown Hollywood spectacle, with Leonardo DiCaprio as the titular gent.
“A gargantuan hunk of over-art-directed kitsch, but it makes for a grandiose, colorful, pleasure-drenched night at the movies.”
Aroview: Noisy, impetuous, boisterous, the film suffers from Luhrman’s usual ADHD direction. It’s as if he can’t bring himself to just let the camera be?—?we’re always moving and everything in front of the camera is always moving. There’s no chance for the emotional content to brew?—?Baz has to keep stirring. ~ Dan Slevin

4 stars (Very Good) Surprisingly enjoyable - went in expecting the standard Luhrman affair and came out feeling much more than I usually do. Sharp. Punchy. Style over substance, but done well. ~Tom H
4 stars (Very Good) ~Milana
2 stars (Good Try) The art work, set designs and wardrobe are excellent but they are not enough to carry you through two hours. ~Tubbs
