Rating: 6/10 (15 May 2013)

Probably a better book than a movie. Watching Gatsby reminds me of a few English Literature book's I read then I watched the movie. Good book, but the translation turns flat as a movie. Gatsby is not a bad movie, but not a good movie either. The movie is well directed, acted, and has a strong cast. Gatsby's themes of owning everything, but not having what you really want. Reaching to far. Chasing after a women who's in it for her self. Who are your real friends? Living an empty life. Great themes which any English major would study. However, Gatsby is about a man who pushed self promotion. Like all loud, and attention oriented personalities people eventually grow tired of the noise. I found Gatsby a bit long. Gatsby is a six out of ten stars. Net flick it.
