Review of The Revenant (2015) by Seamus F — 26 Apr 2016
Alejandro G. Iñárritu, fresh off his big win with "Birdman," comes back with yet another entertaining and beautifully shot film based in part on a novel and in part on real events. It is highly fictionalized, but there are elements of truth to it.
..some of the craziest bits are based on actual things (like the Grizzly attack) that happened to the real Glass. DiCaprio gives one of his best performances, and Tom Hardy is quite good as the main antagonist.
I loved the cinematography...for the most part I really enjoyed this film, as it looks great and told a classic revenge story in a fairly subtle and creative way.
