Judging by the striking mise-en-scéne and effective use of colour from posters and trailers, The Great Gatsby is quickly identified as a typical Luhrmann film. It marks his first film since 2008 and only his fifth in total. Once again, like every other Luhrmann feature, The Great Gatsby consisted of large-scale production concepts featuring a story and a variety characters that has the capability... read more

Appealing visuals, but lacks character development

Capturing an era on film can be tough. It needs to feel right, the look, the dress code, the mannerisms all need to be accurate or it will crumble on the spot. One of the things The Great Gatsby did fantastically was capture the essence of the thirties.

To be honest, this movie was not a priority but since there was not much else to watch, I thought I should give it a try. Eventually, I thought it was not bad but still nothing really amazing in my opinion. Basically, it is one of those visual extravaganzas which have been Baz Luhrmann's specialty for quite a while now. Honestly, even though it was an interesting approach, it was also rather distr... read more

Best of 2013 (23 movies items)

" + DiCaprio and Edgerton + Visually stunning and the music was wonderful + For once, I've read the book before I watched the film + The party scenes were amazing - Daisy Buchanan still is an annoying character - A bit chaotic at some points 8.3/10"

Emotionally and visually appealing

“NOTE! I did not watch this movie in 3D.

This is my first attempt to write a review on Listal. I have so many thoughts about this movie and I need to write some of them down on my computer. My English teacher took my class to the movie theater to watch The Great Gatsby. In my English class, I had to read the novel and write an analysis about it. F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel The Great Gatsby is considered as one of the greatest English written novels of the 20th century. I was really looking forward to watch Baz Luhrmann’s adaptation of the novel, but I had my worries. Would the story and the characters fade away into all the visual effects?

I did not need to worry at all. The Great Gatsby is truly amazing! It does remind me of Moulin Rouge. Both movies have a male na” read more

I support your opinion about Daisy. She is so fickle, sardonic and self-absorbed. I loathe her.
