The Revenant's only flaw
 

I found The Revenant (2015) to be an awesome movie - great (simple) story, great acting, awesome scenery, awesome musical score.

But, could they really not find anyone better than Leonardo DiCaprio to star in it ? With a big budget like that ?

A puny 15-yr-old-girl looking actor who can't act to save his life, to play a ***barbarian*** that hunts and stabs and endures Arctic temperatures ? Really ? Couldn't find someone more masculine and believable ?

For the life of me, I cannot take that girly boy seriously. Every word out of his mouth and every one of his expressions/actions represented the only moments I had to dissociate from the movie screen to maintain my continued enjoyment of the movie. I'm talking about a great effort.

P.S. I have watched it about 300 times now, and the amount of effort required doesn't decrease.

You must think I'm nuts, yeah ?

Sure do. Or maybe you're just a "pretty smart cookie".

How old are you op?

42, why ?

You look think Dicaprio is 15 year old looking, really?

I don't agree at all. Thought Di Caprio did a great job. It's the very fact that he's not some big hulk of a bloke that made him more vulnerable in his struggle.

I disagree with Leo winning the Oscar for that role but it was still good solid acting just not Oscar worthy in my opinion.


I love the scenes where he get's mauled by a bear, great filmmaking.





I need to watch it a second time, some time.

Well, we found the Trump supporter. ;)

DiCaprio is a great actor, so shut up. Though I agree he should have gotten the Oscar for Wolf of Wall Street over The Revenant, but it was still a physically and emotionally draining performance, but he went the internalized/subtle route and put his body through the wringer. It was a great performance, but not as obviously complex as his other performances, it's a bit more subtle, but it's solid acting either way. Tom Hardy got the showier role, and even he knocked it out of the park.

There was almost a version where Samuel L. Jackson played Glass and it would be directed by Park Chan-wook. I still wish we had got that version instead.

This has gotten more response than most reviews on the site. Come on Mofo, you know you're my boy, but you got to get it together.

This terrible movie wishes that was its only flaw.

Re: The Revenant's only flaw
 

I think DiCaprio stopped looking like a "girly boy" a couple of decades ago.

Re: The Revenant's only flaw
 

I never thought he looked like one. Besides, why is that bad?

DiCaprio in The Revenant was very good. I wouldn't say Oscarworthy, but it's nice that he finally got one even though he had to sweat his ass off for it. I wouldn't give it for The Wolf Of Wall Street either though, my pick would be The Aviator.

Yeah, we need another five pages of posts about whether or not it's actually underrated.
