I haven't read the book or seen older movie. This review is about the Jay Gatsby only. Leo is amazing actor and his acting is marvelous. It gives us a true idea about relationships and love. Amazing movie. 10/10.
Movie was quiet better.but the end of this movie,killed the beauty of it.though i was a great story.and combination of leonardo's and tobey was so Awesome.
Fabulous. Over the top. DiCaprio perfect. Faithful to the book with Maguire as Nick Carraway looking uncannily like Fitzgerald himself. The book is almost impossible to transfer to the screen as language is a large part of its effect. Cleverly, Luhrmann has thus made Fitzgerald's text part of the movie by having Carraway narrate it and even writing the words on the screen as he says them.
I remember of Robert Redford's The Great Gatsby which l found it too boring in that time,in fact l was too young to understand and accept such dramatic soap opera,but more mature and watching this new fresh version l have to confess that F. Scott Fitzgerald made a masterpiece written this marvelous novel portrait an era which no longer exist anymore,years before the stock market crash!!Resume:First watch: 2018 / How many: 1 / Source: Blue-ray / Rating: 8.25
