I finished the book recently and when I was watching this movie I thught I was reading the book again. This is one of the best adaption of a book I've ever seen. The acting was great. Leonardo DiCaprio did a marvelous work, as always. I also love Toby McGuire performance. The worst is the music, too modern for that age.

A lot of poeple talked very high about this movie but to me despite the loud music and the overrated parties it was kind of OK the best thing in it was Leonardo , I saw it because of him

First half of the movie feels like one long trailer, due to choppy, messy editing and over stylized cinematography. You can tell that this is where The Suicide Squad got its ideas from. Soundtrack and the music choice are also questionable, with a few instances where it's actually fitting. I haven't read the book, but the mini series seems like a much better fit for story this complex and ambitious. This way, it's just a messy movie with a great cast and direction choices that just makes you ask yourself what the hell they were thinking?!

They always say “read the book first” but sometimes it is fascinating watching a film version without any knowledge of the text it is based on. Book fans can get quite agitated at seeing their vision or interpretation of the book trampled on in some way but at the same time if the film doesn’t More

I'll preface this by saying that I've never read the book that this movie is based on. So I won't say anything about how faithful of an adaptation this is, but rather on the movie itself.

Leonardo Di Caprio is, as always, marvelous. That's certainly no news, but I really enjoyed his performance. More

[3.8/10] There is a scene, fairly early on in *The Great Gatsby*, director Baz Luhrmann’s 2013 adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel, that tells you everything you need to know about the film. The film’s bystander protagonist is reflecting on his time with the title character, describing G More

See I don't know how to review this because I came into it hating the novel, and it's 2022, it took me over a decade to finally say "fine I'll watch the movie."

And unfortunately they didn't improve things. It's still, well, pretentious. It's still a story of someone that is living above his mean More
