"Great Drama!"

Rating: 7/10 (27 June 2016)

Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy star in this 2015 drama based on the novel and inspired by true events. This takes place in the 1800's and DiCaprio (Titanic) plays Hugh Glass, a frontiersman who leads a hunting expedition. Soon, Glass is injured by a bear and left for dead by one of his men, John Fitzgerald (Hardy) who not only betrays him, but murders his son. Glass struggles to survive the wilderness while regaining his strength and health to find Fitzgerald. This is a great film with suspenseful and heartfelt moments, DiCaprio definitely gives an Oscar-worthy performance and there's beautiful, remote settings. The film also shares similarities with "The Grey," "Deliverance" and "Cast Away." I recommend this.
