Review of Nightcrawler (2014) by Scott G — 26 Jul 2015

Creepy, disturbing and thought provoking. This is a performance piece and Jake Gyllenhaal's portrayal of a psychopath discovering the road of manipulation that leads to all his aspirations coming true- has been much lauded by film critics, and deservedly so.

You like your films to have some depth and stray far far away from that tried and true fairytale storyline? You will like this. Great direction all around and supporting acting. Well filmed and paced.

A gem. Just not the kind of gem you want to get out of the jewelry box and look at too often.
