Jake Gyllenhaal will be loved to be hated

Rating: 8/10 (9 January 2015)

Nightcrawler turned out to be a surprise gruesome, psychotic, weird thriller which made an interesting watch thanks to stupendous performance by Jake Gyllenhaal and powerful storyline.
When jobless and desperate guy gets the idea of crime journalism, he digs his own way and reaches to the top with help from a news veteran, of course in a crooked way.
First time director, Dan Gilroy , does a fabulous job with strong story and gripping script. Direction is crunchy adding taste to the film every time new scene turns up. The beautiful nightlife of LA adds charms to the cinematography. Hats off to Jake Gyllenhaal who gets into the character of Louis Bloom so effortlessly that it is difficult to identify any other actor playing that part. He is horrifying as a news reporter who can get into any length to achieve success. It is the evil character that you feel weird , funny, angry and yet captivating. He emotes so accurately through his expressions and is complete natural. Rene Russo does well in a small role
So overall , superb intellectual movie in all respect. Must Watch. Excellent 4/5
