Review of Youth (2015) by Moviemitch96 — 29 Dec 2015

Wow! Can I just start by saying how incredibly underrated this film is!? I've noticed that the word "pretentious" has been thrown around an awful lot when describing this film. That word means nothing to me anymore, as it's become such a cliche word and I've decided that it's simply used by people who don't understand or appreciate art films or beautiful films such as this one and just use the word to dismiss the film and at least sound intelligent or sophisticated by doing so.

Regardless of what anyone else thinks of this film, I absolutely loved it! It brings together an absolute top-notch cast, all of which give equally memorable performances! Dare I say that this just may be Sir Michael Caine's best performance of his career! Harvey Keitel, Rachel Weisz, and Paul Dano all deliver grand performances alongside him.
