A surprisingly nice movie. Loved the multiple recording studio bits!
Don't know why the comments here are so negative, I really enjoyed this movie.
Epic acting performances and a really smart film direction, production and editing, topped with an amazing soundtrack.
I absolutely love this movie. Great cast (amazing performance from Davies), great set and a very interesting story. I loved this movie so much I bought the book which the story was adapted from (and won an Oscar in the process). I've seen it in theaters 3 times already and it's always an amazing experience
I don't think Allison's makeover is what makes Andy interested in her, as he was looking at her in a quite interested way just before Claire changed her looks. The coupling was unnecessary because they could all just stay friends, but I think the decision was to put on movie what the future would probably look like - that is, unless they made a "the next Monday" scene, there was no easy way to convey the idea that they would stay friends.
As many times as I watch, it's impossible not to cry. Amazing movie, it's not your absolute best comedy but it has many great moments.
Nice documentary, although I find the lack of any Abbey Road references a bit disappointing
Absolutely loved this movie. With four solid movies, Toy Story is by far the best animation saga ever imo
Good movie, worth the watch. Like already said, if you're looking for a love-relationship film, this isn't it; 'Handsome Devil' focus on the values of friendship and companionship, centered in a seemingly homophobic school which has to eventually lead with its homosexual students. I'm sad it lacks any Smiths' tracks, considering its title, but it's a nice watch nonetheless!
Not as bad as everyone says but not that good either. Margot was terrific!
Fantastic perfomance by Ewan McGregor!
Terrific job by Jennifer Lawrence, clearly stepping up her career.
Tom Hardy was really, really incredible, but Leonardo was magnificent. Astonishing perfomance!
The only reason I managed to watch this movie until the end was Leonardo DiCaprio. Amazing perfomance from an amazing actor. None of the other actors stand out (except perhaps Edgerton), and Maguire was terrible.
But the worst thing about this movie is, by far, its score: I felt literally disgusted by it. And it was not only because the (bad) artists who participated in it, but also and mainly because it has nothing to do with the 20s era; it fails to transmit the Jazz hype that period had. I can not understand how modern-era music can help the viewers to connect with Gatsby's parties' emotions. It just feels so unreal, so unnatural, so fake.
The book adaption itself is not bad, it actually sticks with the original story... But it is not enough to make it a good movie. I'll try to remember Baz Luhrmann's name so to avoid any of his other films.
