Insane!

Rating: 10/10 (18 January 2016)

Oh. My. God. The Revenant was absolutely amazing! Di Caprio in one of his best performances, especially considering the incredible physical and mental (he actually did eat a real buffalo liver) exertion he had to put in this act. Tom Hardy, if possible, even better than Leo himself. Rising like a phoenix this actor is growing brilliantly, better and better every film. He deserves the Oscar not only for his incredible talent shown in this film but for the amazing development he's had in the last years. Iñárritu seriously overtook himself. The directing of this film is unbelievable. Starting with the scene of the battle at the beginning, one long incredible take of pure magic to the very end of it. His writing is great as well. Even if based in part on a novel, his touch is strongly present in the screenplay. The cinematography was the best part of all. Lubezki did an incredible work. The photography was seriously insane. And if you consider that all the film is entirely shot using natural light only (boom — mind blown!). I won't be surprised if he wins the 3rd Oscar in a row. This film deserves, at least, 4 of the most important Oscars.
