关于此电影

The Great Gatsby follows would-be writer Nick Carraway (Tobey Maguire) as he leaves the Midwest and comes to New York City in the spring of 1922, an era of loosening morals, glittering jazz, bootleg kings, and sky-rocketing stocks. Chasing his own American Dream, Nick lands next door to a mysterious, party-giving millionaire, Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio), and across the bay from his cousin, Daisy (Carey Mulligan), and her philandering, blue-blooded husband, Tom Buchanan (Joel Edgerton). It is thus that Nick is drawn into the captivating world of the super rich, their illusions, loves and deceits. As Nick bears witness, within and without of the world he inhabits, he pens a tale of impossible love, incorruptible dreams and high-octane tragedy, and holds a mirror to our own modern times and struggles.

评分和评价

The Great Gatsby delivers absolutely awful performances from absolutely talented actors. The out of place modern music alongside unnecessary camera angles don't disguise from the fact that this film utterly boring. Baz Luhrmann -yet again- produces a film that is clearly only a masterpiec in his eyes. The film is riddled with obvious cgi and and blatantly bad scene transitions all wrapped up in a frenzy of mediocre dialogue.

Confession: I haven't read F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic Jazz Age novel so, literary lovers take these thoughts for what you will, but I loved this film adaptation from director Baz Lurhman. It feels like one long, boozy, druggy weekend which, if you know anything about the 1920's, means Lurhman hits almost every mark. For more, read the full review: bit.ly/2013GreatGatsby

This is the first time ever I wanted to poke my eyes out and burn them after watching a movie. I was so disappointed and almost about to cry because of the movie being so bad that I wanted the 2 hours of my life back that I spend watching it. My wife stopped me from jumping out of the window from 15th floor when we watched it. It's a big warning for all you movie fans out there. Protect yourself from this movie and don't buy it!
