Review of J. Edgar (2011) by Patrick K — 14 May 2013
This is a film I really wanted to see in the cinema but it wasnt shown in my local one so upon waiting for the DVD/Blu Ray release I finally got seeing it and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed this. Leonardo DiCaprio's portrayal of the former director of the FBI was brilliant and I feel Clint Eastwood as director got the feel of this particular era spot on.
Hoover was a massive force in a time when crime in America was legendary and I feel that this film captured the era brilliantly and Hoover was portrayed like im sure the man himself would have wanted.
DiCaprio is proving to be the king of biopics and long may it continue...good entertainment.
