Daniel Day Lewis was incredible. The movie itself was good

Rating: 7/10 (17 January 2008)

I think that the character that Daniel Day Lewis portrayed was a masterful piece of acting, and perhaps one of the best dramatic performances I have ever see on the big screen. How versatile is this guy anyway? He can play an Indian, a Brit, and an 19th century scoundrel, as well as a handicapped person. I thought the movie itself was very good from a cinematic standpoint but a little slow at times. Unlike some of the reviews, I thought Cameron Diaz did a really good job in this. I was very underwhelmed by Leo DiCaprio's performance. It came off kind of stiff and uninspired. So..to summarize, I think DDL should have gotten at least a best actor recommended for this. The movie overall was good to very good, Cameron was very good and Leo was a little flat.
