Push the feeling on

Rating: 8/10 (22 December 2014)

You know you've seen a good movie when you constantly try to predict what's going to happen next and you always fail. That is the case, for me, with "Nightcrawler". This film has one of the greatest plots I've recently seen; the story is very engaging, due to the eccentric situations characters get into. I also couldn't help mentioning how good is the character development, especially regarding Louis Bloom, Rick and the female anchor. The three of them began the movie in a way, and as the story went on, they revealed to be very different from what they were supposed to be. In my opinion, the story's main objective is to show how far people can go for money, and how our materialist society stimulates this kind of behavior. Also, Jake Gyllenhaal proves in here how good is his acting, albeit many of his previous works have been badly criticized. To sum it up, "Nightcrawler" is a pleasant surprise from 2014 and I feel very glad to have seen it in the cinema.
