A true awakening! THE DINGY REPORTING!

Rating: 9/10 (16 June 2015)

A man determined to learn and looking for a job, sounds normal. But what if the same man is bogged down at each opportunity and nobody realizes his potential. He is repeatedly shown the doors and not given a chance to prove himself. This man might be dangerous then. His thoughts and outlook for his environment or surrounding might change. He will be different, shabby, neglected, dingy Grey character. This Grey character played by Jake Gyllenhaal is sometimes idiotic, sometimes funny and sometimes hell SCARY. Jake Gyllenhaal made sure that the character looks witty, sharp and scary at the same time. He just delivers an outstanding performance with his head held high. Not only that, the director Dan Gilroy gives a superb thriller and you feel attached to it at each moment. He has unfolded some hard hitting realities of the news television and how they are becoming more of a finance industry then being just a reporting news channel. He clearly shows how ethics of the news channels have changed and how are they affected more by the viewer ship rather than the truth. We all love theatricality and we only listen to something if it is sold well. The NIGHTCRAWLER is just that kind of movie which hooks you from start and you want to see more of it. A must watch for those who see news everyday and don't think beyond it.
