Review of The Great Gatsby (2013) by Jason S — 11 Dec 2015
While I'm well aware that this movie does have faults, particularly with its tone, I still can't help but enjoy this film! For me, the over the top style and more modern music really added a lot to the overall experience.
However, I completely understand if it turns some people away. Also there are one or two performances that leave a lot to be desired. But what makes this movie for me are Tobey Maguire and Leonardo DiCaprio.
These two are absolutely fantastic and the friendship between the two clearly shows on screen. So if you're a huge fan of the novel or if you've liked any of Baz Lerman's previous works, particularly Moulin Rouge, then I would definitely recommend this one.
