Nightcrawler is a modern achievement.
Jake Gyllenhaal plays a sociopath bent on success, and he won't let anything or anyone stand in his way. Gyllenhaal is really hitting his stride this year, complete with this movie, Enemy, and Prisoners. I personally think this is his best role yet. He is utterly disturbing at one point, hilarious at another, and horrifying at others. I spent the entire movie wondering if he could top the insanity of the last line he said, and he always did.
The cinematography is beautiful and the editing is crisp and fast. Do not think this is an action movie, it is very much a thriller. However, one scene in the movie has some of the best editing and shots I've seen in an action scene in the past few years.
Story is interesting and lets you dive into the intricacies of crime reporting in Los Angeles. There were some very minor things I would change to let the movie feel more sturdy near the end, but it felt complete.
