The Revenant

"A masterclass in portraying a sense of an untamed yet euphoric setting. With Lubezki at the helm as cinematographer, and armed with the Arri Alexa 65, the result is a gigantic adventure with a scope as wide as its constant lens choice. Undeniably impressive in its set-piece moments: Native American attacks, bear encounters, coyotes, buffaloes, waterfalls, throat piercings; it's all grotesque and gnarly, pushing actors into a state of expansive live-theater, with long shot set-ups propelling intimacy and a deep-rooted primal vision into your eyeballs without submission. DiCaprio has to basically carry the whole film using barely any dialogue, and he does so masterfully. Gleeson turns in a great supporting performance and Tom Hardy is a fvcking beast here. Ah the magic of cinema."

"Gruesome…it was hard to watch at certain points. It was sad, exciting, scary, all the emotions… 👀 recommend if you’re looking for a thriller! "

"Great movie"

"This movie was intense and a lot to take in…Leonardo DiCaprio was superb and the visuals were breath-taking!"

"This is my 2nd time watching and it's as good as I remember. Leonardo DiCaprio plays the Main Character and Tom Hardy plays the Villain in the movie. Not an action heavy movie but there's some, nice camera work and good scenes so this is worth watching. I don't normally watch movies in the Native American setting but it's a good watch to refresh my memories for this movie. "

"This is really the only movie I’ve liked it a lot because of the visuals. The camera, the atmosphere, and other things I don’t usually notice much in a movie. Such a well made movie. Very beautiful movie all around."

"My seventh favorite film of all time! Beautiful locations and beautifully shot."

"As painful as this was to watch I can’t help but give it a thumbs up. It’s gruesome and terrible but the acting, the story, the special effects and cinematography are so incredible that I can’t rate it low. It is stomach churning realism of a terrible murderous time in history. It is, in fact, so realistic I remember being nauseous while watching. "

"Incredible acting, writing, cinematography, and stunts. It is a little slow. Solid one-time watch"

"Great movie! Epic bear attack, excellent acting! "
