Gruesome, Yet Very Good!

Rating: Null/10 (5 November 2003)

When I saw this movie, I was both grossed out and amazed. It's a beautiful movie. The cinematography is very well done, and the acting is very good, too. DiCaprio gives a very good performance, and Diaz strays beyond her usual "pretty-girl" roll, and does it very well. Day-Lewis's character is very dynamic and Henry Thomas does a very good performance as DiCaprio's friend. Just a warning for those who haven't seen this movie: if you don't like to watch very bloody fight scenes or watch people die in some pretty uncomfortable ways, don't see this. The movie is very rough and seems exaggerated. All the same, I like it a lot.
