Entertaining but often pretentious

Rating: 7/10 (20 May 2014)

^ should be a 6.5/10 but it doesn't let you do halves.
I love the plot,I've never read the book so I have never heard of any plot like this before. The movie is consistently entertaining but is often bogged down by pretentious and sometimes cheesy dialogue. DiCaprio is good in this but it is far far from being his best work because it doesn't showcase his talent fully. A lot of the supporting actors are badly acted and cardboard, resulting in this flick being not the most memorable of movies. I do, however,love the ending;it's quite beautiful and I love the whole family spirit theme going on. Soundtrack's really nice too with its soothing, uplifting songs.
