Description

The uniquely imaginative Baz Luhrmann (Moulin Rouge!, Australia) tackles F. Scott Fitzgerald'’s landmark novel, The Great Gatsby, with blockbuster star Leonardo DiCaprio in the title role. Spider-Man'’s Tobey Maguire stars as the Fitzgerald-like would-be writer Nick Carraway who arrives in New York in 1922, an era of loose morals, glittering jazz and bootleg kings. Chasing his own American Dream, Nick encounters the mysterious millionaire Gatsby and his bewitching cousin Daisy. Soon, Nick is drawn into the captivating world of the super-rich, their illusions, loves and deceits. Bearing witness to this new world, Nick pens a tale of impossible love, incorruptible dreams and unforgettable tragedy -- mirroring our own times and struggles.

    This movie is SO FAR removed from the book plot that it’s just terrible! READ THE BOOK INSTEAD!!

  • The best part is Lana del Rey’s epic song

    Leo was also very good.

  • Poor acting and bad “music” ruin a great story

    While quite the visual spectacle, the movie is ruined by bad acting and worse, the horrible, out of place soundtrack. There are also elements which are simply not true to the time period. A big “F” grade to this production.

  • Good

    Liked this version. Well Directed. Well acted. Love the visuals. Set designs. Costumes. Lighting. The music is good too. Glad this is being offered in 4K. Should be.

  • The truth.

    A job of a critic is always easy one may say. We don’t risk much if anything our reputation, but this weekend I saw the movie. I rather have seen grass grow, maybe that would have been more entertaining. The movie was just too slow and when it finally turned for the “better” it was a disappointment. I would say recommend this movie to a person you would like to see suffer for two hours. I tried to entertain myself because I was just so bored. Honestly just spend time with loved ones because honestly anything is better than this movie. Thank you.

  • One of my Favorite book adaptations

    The book was one of my favorites to read in high school and the movie might be even better. Every actor disappears into their role but Leonardo DiCaprio is the best in this film. I recommend it!
